That's BS.

He'll be better than Boqvist, you'll see.

Sarcasm on my part.

Why do you think Lou is such a great GM? He hasn't won a SC since what, 2000? Are you willing to give Stan 20 years to win a SC?

I don't think Lou ever inherited a core comparable to Toews Kane Keith Seabrook Hossa and Sharp.

And no I don't want to give Stan 20 years to win another Cup.

If the previous GM had his way, it would’ve been Havlat instead of Hossa.

Looks like Stan and L_B_R have a big difference of opinion on Zadorov.

Bowman and I also had a big difference of opinion on Rundblad.

Seems about average - middle of the road - not very “these guys will be Cup contenders”....

Of course, only one man’s opinion.

I'm not a big fan of when these lists mix in prospect with actual NHL talent. Just based on probability, there are plenty of guys ranked higher than Debrincat, for example, that will never be NHL regulars much less tpo 6/4 but he's already there. I sometime look at Pronman's stuff and just go "ehhhh if you says so". Like I love Dach but how is he above PC Dubois?

And he's just going to miss on many guys who will make it that no one expected. Keith wouldn't have been top 155 when he was 23 or younger either.

Ok. Stan inherited 5 of the 6 I mentioned, but I also neglected to include Hammer and Cro, even if he wasn't instrumental in the 1st SC.

And maybe no cups, we’ll never know.
