I wholeheartedly think Read is a sniper.

Have you seen his snap shot?

Is this a M seeking M board?

What happened to this board - I left for one day and it is going south.

I don't understand your first comment

Look- I don't mean he's a sniper like in NHL 2012. He's not one dimensional, obviously. He's among the top 2 way forwards on the team.

But he has a tremendous release, and a hard, accurate shot. That, to me, is the only qualifications of a sniper.

I take it most people don't agree with me.

I don't think his shot is bad, but I think you're overselling it a bit. Not a knock on Reader, he's solid.

He's money on shootouts

Not gonna argue with ya though. People are entitled to what they think about his shot. He's a solid player as you said, and that's really all that matters at the end of the day

well i'm 41, so i barely remember seeing Bernie play, so although he might be a favorite of mine, i went with who i saw play.
I do remember seeing Clarkie play a little bit more since his career was longer.
All the others I saw play...

That's just proof they still have a need to add to the system.
