Untilted 158 Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 show off.I can almost gaurantee that the 20th part of Bob's message was completely intentional to get the desired affect of which you so politely obliged. That is what I like about Bob. His modesty is very subtle Link to post Share on other sites

His modesty is very subtleOh I show off all the time when it comes to the Big M's.This one was strictly me being descriptive since I think I used my own pick on him and if I did it would have been the 20th pick that year since ajs510 said that he used the 10th pick in the FCHL.

Thankfully I offset it by using the pick I traded for (which turned out to be #2 overall) on Patrick Kane. Kyle Turris was the #1 overall pick in that draft. Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 Wow, Nell took Turris over Kane?IIRC, Turris was ranked ahead of him by the scouting departments, but Chicago took Kane anyways. Link to post Share on other sites

I was shocked, but not too shocked to accept the gift. There was a lot of dispute in the NHL draft that year about what order the big 3 were going to go, a lot of people had Chicago taking Turris and Kane going to Philly, JVR to Phoenix.

ajs510 122 Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 Heh, I took Oscar Moller in the 3rd round of our 2008 draft. Still hoping he pans out, but I'm not going to hold my breath. I'm more excited about Loktionov, I snagged him late in our '09 draft. Link to post Share on other sites

FCP Bob 1,312 Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 Oh I show off all the time when it comes to the Big M's. 60 Tobias Enstrom - Big M'sSo I guess Enstrom would go top 5 if we did this draft based on what we know now and probably higher than that. Link to post Share on other sites
ajs510 122 Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 I didn't realize Enstrom was having the season he's having until you said that. Wow...almost PPG from the blueline. Link to post Share on other sites

Wow...almost PPG from the blueline.Him and Serge's man crush (not Bogosian, somehow) are tearing it up back there. They're both really close to PPG. Link to post Share on other sites
FCP Bob 1,312 Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 I didn't realize Enstrom was having the season he's having until you said that. Wow...almost PPG from the blueline.And he had 50 points last year so it's not like him getting a lot of points is a fluke. Link to post Share on other sites

digitalmonkey 929 Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 So I guess Enstrom would go top 5 if we did this draft based on what we know now and probably higher than that.Top 10, but probably not top 5. Link to post Share on other sites
FCP Bob 1,312 Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 Top 10, but probably not top 5.Name 5 more valuable players who were drafted that year in the AHL ? Link to post Share on other sites
digitalmonkey 929 Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 Name 5 more valuable players who were drafted that year in the AHL ?I don't like choosing defensemen so high.Also, there is a difference in choosing based solely on value and not taking upside into consideration. And if we know what we know now, why am I only allowed to choose a player who was drafted in the AHL that year? Link to post Share on other sites

gruven 530 Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 In 2007, I picked (at the start of the playoffs) the Dallas Stars and the New York Rangers to play in the Cup FInal. Both teams were eliminated in the first round. To compound my wrongness, this brilliant (perhaps even genious) prediction was made on national tv.... Link to post Share on other sites

digitalmonkey 929 Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 I thought Elliot Friedman was a goofball when he was with The Score and I thought CBC could have done better when they hired him. He turned out to be a very solid journalist and his 30 Thoughts is a must read. Link to post Share on other sites
