Past tense? Liked.... still likes him... or liked him the one time he saw him?

Or...

Not sure but Madden and Woo, two of Bracketts picks are having stellar seasons

Blob wanted Jack Wise

Seriously blob? You wanted jack wise? The second I heard he was John maddens kid I was pumped for the pick.

There was time, a fair bit before the draft, where Wise and Veleno were being touted as the consensus top 2. Unfortunately for Blob those “early on rankings” endeared Wise to Blob. I moved on to Madden, Blob got arm barred by old rankings

RoyalDude wrote: ↑Wed Jan 30, 2019 4:46 pm Top 5 I think will be

Hughes
Kakko
Podkolzin
Cozens
Byram

Challenging for the top 5

Zegras
Boldy

The rest of the first round a complete crap shoot. Byram will be long gone. Take a chance on Broberg or Krebs

I had a grand total of one post where I said I would have preferred Wise. You probably had seen nether play. I admittedly liked the fact that Wise had excellent stats in the USHL. I didn’t bash Madden and I wasn’t devastated that we didn’t pick Wise.

We both know if the Canucks had drafted Wise you’d be saying to cut him some slack because he’s been injured and only dressed for 11 games.

I can see Byram going 3rd oa, teams won't want to miss out on the next Makar, Heiskanen or Quinn Hughes.

The issue at hand, Man-boobs is we rarely ever see you praising the great Jimbro Benning for “not” making the picks you wanted that ended up being way worse than the one’s he ended up picking - Boeser over Konecny, Pettersson over Glass, Madden over Wise etc. Those picks are game changers! Why couldn’t Gillis do that in 6 drafts?
