That's totally unfair. He was a

I don't think we should really be pressing Hintz and Gurianov too hard for their play, given than guys who make More Money and have More Experience are playing like horseshit.
I think the Stars are lacking some actual physical professional guys. They seem like a bunch of goofballs who can't buckle down sometimes. Monty probably doesn't want to take away the goofball aspect because them having fun is a good thing for any organization. But they have to buckle down when the tough gets going.
Where's Hatcher? We need that.

You mean you let a 12 year old body check you with your head down in the middle of the ice?
Not a good look dude....
slaps wrote:The good part about the Nichushkin pick was that the Stars kind of went with the general draft rankings. That's good (for them). Unfortunately, it turned out poorly so they went back to just using a Ouija board in conjunction with the signs given by shaken-up rabbit bones in a top hat once worn by Aleister Crowley.

The Stars didn't think Nichushkin would make it past #5 and tried to trade up to get him. For some reason, I like knowing that. I think I like knowing they were aggressive, but not stupidly so.
