And I didn’t feel they would be stars until they proved it at the NHL level

There isn’t a single bloody player I ever felt was a guarantee, that’s pure foolishness.

I was pretty sure about Mario Lemieux and Gretzky

Damn. Bad luck there. Soucy down 😢

I’m assuming all those scouts are fired.

Not really because everyone bought into it. The Nordiques offered Forsberg, Owen Nolan, Hextall and picks for him.

Have the courage to name the ones you were wrong about as well? I’m guessing no.

Well I never liked Daigle. I am guessing Lemieux and Gretzky were no brainers for everybody except maybe you. You know because nobody is guaranteed to be a star.

The reason I like sports is that it’s not scripted and there are no guarantees

I do not think there is anyone else I was sure of. Definitely not Daigle or Lindros. I was definitely wrong on a lot of players being great or even good NHL'ers

Jeezus, who was in charge of the nordiques then?

I hope he’s been fired!

Well Gretzky wasn’t drafted so yes indeed he was a No. 1 overall due to him being a no brainer.

Great point tho

But what I am sure of is that there is a huge difference in 17-19 years old. In so many ways.

Biased fool.

This is terrible. 3 on 3 for the gold medal? 🤮

I hate it.

That’s my (frank)ing argument!!!

Hence why I say Bedard isn’t a guaranteed star in the NHL

I think the talk is about generational players not no. 1 overall picks

What? About 10lbs? Lol

I called Patrick Kane being a great player.

I watched most of his games in London and he was just on another level. It was clear as day.

If he wasn’t drafted it means not a single GM back then agreed with you about him being a guaranteed star.

Some small guys make it.

Most don’t.

Ya seems weird. Not sure why they wouldn’t even do 4-4.

3-3 seems aggressive.

F'n great OT

Well Im stoked Seattle now on a 3 game win streak. Jones is back on track hot. And huge big win.

Sad though too. Leafs just 💩 the bed like Amber Heard. That was brutal for them.

BOOM there is the GOLD medal for Canada!!!!



BOOO Yeah !!!!!1

Gold!!!!
