TrueBlueGED Posted June 24, 2017 Report Share Posted June 24, 2017 ...except Tippett is and always will be a lousy hockey player, and Mittelstadt will be one of the headliners on the US Olympic team his whole career. Not if Bettman has anything to say about it :wallbash: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woods-racer Posted June 24, 2017 Report Share Posted June 24, 2017 (edited) I couldn't do a pull up in high school. I now way 220 pounds with 2% body fat. Seriously? Do you do body building competitions? He's a draft pick in a not so stellar draft, none of the prospects where worth getting hyped up about. It's a meh draft, hard to go all crazy either way about this pick. Edited June 24, 2017 by Woods-Racer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pi2000 Posted June 24, 2017 Report Share Posted June 24, 2017 The "problem" with these young stud hockey players is their lower bodies are way more developed than their upper bodies. 80% of his body weight is below his waist, which makes pullups a difficult task.

shrader Posted June 24, 2017 Report Share Posted June 24, 2017 You know I'm on that train, and I'm not getting off of it any time soon. You're occasionally misguided. There's no shame in that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robviously Posted June 24, 2017 Report Share Posted June 24, 2017 FYI - we're on page 5 of this thread and no one has pointed out that we've misspelled his name in the title. It's MITTELSTADT. Not "Mittlestadt." OK, back to talking pull-ups..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone who is legitimately concerned about his athleticism has never watched him skate. Here, I'll help with a highlight package: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GASabresIUFAN Posted June 24, 2017 Report Share Posted June 24, 2017 Hey 11, if he can't do a bench press or pullup after a year in Minn, then you have something to worry about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, you have officially won the SS pedantic achievement award for 2017. :P I don't think getting your 1st round draft pick's name right in the thread about him is pedantic. I also think it's hilarious that no one noticed for over an hour while we were comparing how many pull-ups everyone on the board can do. :doh: :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beer Posted June 24, 2017 Report Share Posted June 24, 2017 I have nipples, Greg, could you milk me? Seriously, a kid should be able to do a pull-up. Done. Next time you and your love come to town, please let me know. You'll love this place. The fancy cocktails suck, but the charcuterie and other meats make up for it.

Randall Flagg Posted June 24, 2017 Report Share Posted June 24, 2017 The hysteria over not taking a defenseman is pretty incredible. I just remember when we had Risto, Zadorov, McCabe, McNabb in the system with Myers/Ehrhoff around. "Can't wait to pick all the centers in the next two drafts cuz we're loaded on D". That was 3 years ago and now if we don't take defensemen who won't enter their prime for 6 more years we're skrewed 5ever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
