    Wayne Gretzky - hid him from 1979 draft year because of personal contract service with PP.

    Leon Draisaitl  - Third Overall pick in 2014 entry draft rewarded for losing.

    Connor McDavid - First Overall pick in 2015 entry draft rewarded for losing.

    Again, my jealousy and petty exaggerations has no bounds. 

    If only Michael Gobuty knew how to play backgammon....argh....

    Leon is great but I don't consider him a generational talen and I don't think anyone expected him to be as good as he's been. 

    McDavid has been the promised one since he was a kid while some "experts" (like Button or McKenzie) had Leon rated 4th or lower in his draft year.   We're splitting hairs though - A++ vs A+ is still exceptional.

     

    Florida now has 3 of the top 4 players taken in the 2014 draft.  What a draft year that was!  We took Ehlers (which was a great choice) but we could have had Pasternak! Dylan Larkin as well.  That's how deep that draft was.  As for Drai, I got to see him play here in Kelowna in 2015, when the Rockets mortgaged their future and made the trade for Drai and Morrissey for their Memorial Cup run that year.  I was surprised that Drai didn't go first overall.

    Curious as to who and how we ise the linebackers....I dont think either of T.Jones or Wilson should be secure with being handed starter spots....and wanna see whatrecievers step ip when lights are on...Practice isnt best indicator as to who is the best...we seen that pretty obviously last yr

    Punter too....I wanna see Evans make a case to punt our punter guy

    A curious thing.... At last check, Jarious Jackson still hadn't made it to camp. So it's all on Hogan, with no safety net. Hoping things go well for him.

    My point is Thompson is really just owner in name only. He really has no say and rarely to never show up. Your original post was shitting on a guy who prob doesn’t know there was a game 6. 

    Yes I was and am still pooping on him.

    Stars owner is actually Canadian. 
     

    On this episode, the boys are joined by Dallas Stars owner Tom Gaglardi. With a net worth of approximately $3.92 billion(sheesh), he's one of the richest people in Canada, yet down to earth and loves to talk hockey as much as we do

    chipman don’t have a plane. Thompson probably don’t know Scheifele exists. 

    I was talking about David Thomson.

    Stars fans and organization showing major class. Can’t help but cheer for them. Sounds like Jets want stars to win it all.

    It has been revealed that Tom Gaglardi has flown Scheifele home to Kitchener in Ontario on his private plane after Game 6, allowing Scheifele to get home and be with his family following the tragic weekend that he's been through.

    Classy move by Dallas owner, wondering why Canada's richest man couldn't have also offered this to Scheifele, given he's an owner of the team.
