Can't even let real Canuck fans enjoy the moment without shitting, pissing, moaning and being hindsight heroes.

Same old, same old.
Sorry Hank. I initially should have left it at one post and probably should have started a different thread. I got goaded into another exchange by Doc who lives for this shit.

Shit bro, no worries :lol:

Try to enjoy yourself just a wee bit, mang! I might try to head down to Rogers to catch some of the prospect action next week.

Ignore Doc for a few days... save your sanity ;)

What was that old joke...?

A man walks into a psychiatrist's office, wearing nothing, only wrapped up in saran wrap.

Psychiatrist looks up and says to the man, "I can clearly see... you(')r(e) nuts".

Im all good. Probably not a bad idea to ignore some of Abbotsfords nonsense. He manages to drag a lot of threads into the ditch

What round pick would you use to pick up an asshole who can do more. I don’t mean score 20 goals but play 4th line and move up when needed.

I was hoping for that in the 2nd round this year but without going a lot of homework not sure anyone was available with that skill set.

I believe Tom Wilson was a 1st round pick.

None. Waiver wire fodder or FA signings. The only 4th liners that you've drafted are those where you hoped for more but they couldn't manage it. Obviously that's more likely for rounds 2-7, unless you have our draft history in which case... 1-7? :crazy:

I’m not sure that is true anymore Bingo, a guy that can an enforcer when needed, play a PK or other roles as needed IMO.

Every team is looking for this so like drafting for positional needs drafting a AH who can play is better. Look at FA this year and what the rate is for someone like Beagle.
