Neo Posted June 22, 2019 Report Share Posted June 22, 2019 At some point, the NHL will stop sending Bettman out. No comment on his effectiveness. Why would you want any big event to start with a hisss-fest? Wait, no it won’t, ever ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know, I like him, if for no other reason than for 20 years I've heard every fan base across the league boo the ***** out of him on draft day ? So, he is like the fan whisperer in that regard, bringing us all together for 1 day a year ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pardon my ignorance, but why is it so bad to pick a goalie in the first? These are people who can singlehandedly win games for you. Wouldn’t we have liked this last season?

Ho-Chi-Sock Posted June 22, 2019 Report Share Posted June 22, 2019 If there’s one thing to appreciate about Murray (and believe me there is about only one) is that he didn’t monologue. He went up, announced the pick, and moved on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course you can find one in any round. Franchise QBs can be found in any round too, as can HOF wingers. Is it that top goalie prospects rarely pan out?

And yes, goalies at 18 are very risky picks. 6K wasn't the top goalie and wasn't a first round pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it that top goalie prospects rarely pan out? IMHO ... while goalies can singlehandedly win, so can other positional players. Even if you assume they can disproportionately influence a game, it’s not enough to overcome the need for ten skaters per goalie on a team. There are too many slots to fill that are non-goalie. That, and they are developmentally uncertain, I believe, more so than forwards and defensemen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
