Sit through a poop season, for a project dman. Splendid.

Well, at least you have something to complain about. Of course, you'd find something to complain about if they took anybody, so there's nothing new.

it's much more fun to kick and scream and label now.

Apparently. They kicked and screamed that they never draft a defenseman. Well they just did. And apparently they made a bad pick according to the consensus. I guess they screwed up again.

Why is there a need for a silver lining? I'm going to see how he develops and turns out before labeling it anything.

I'm disappointed but I do like that he is a spitting image of pronger size-wise and we do have pronger hanging around on the payroll for the next 5 years....

Here's a full draft breakdown of Morin:

istill think we trade Coburn for another 1st rounder
- mydoglicks

possible ... you know Homer isn't happy not being able to make a splash.

How you like that Schneider trade?
- stveshdy

I think Gillis clowned Lamoriello.

Apparently the draft ended 10 minutes ago and no good can come of it

Calgary still badly needs D. Coburn and pick #41 for picks 22 and 28?

Zdeno Chara was a project Dman also.

Going to be longer than a few imo.

They said the same thing about dougie hamilton and he was up in 2 years. We truly don't know anything at this point. People get so upset when they Flyers don;t develop Dmen. Well now they are going to try to.

We just drafted Luke Schenn

Same sh!t, different year
- Jack-Meoff

people crying over the flyers picking a player they pretty much know nothing about? very true. same poop, different year

great we drafted a moron wtf is home doing

it's much more fun to kick and scream and label now.

Two drafts in a row flyers could have traded down and still gotten their player. Sam hinkie holmer is not

Would have actually just preferred a forward picked

I'm going against the consensus. Everyone loves the pick. Holmgren being lauded all over the place. I have to bring balance.

Not happy with that pick. Could have traded down.
- youarewrong

Yeah. At Least Draft A Talent, Mordin Could Of Been Picked Down In The Draft

where were they trading down to for this guy. What team was offering to move up. It's dumb to assume every team wiil just say okay here, we'll move up, take what you want.

Zdeno Chara was a project Dman also.
- MJL

Not against the pick. Just think its going to be awhile before he even helps this team. I'm saying 5 years.

"Offensively, Morin isn’t afraid to rush the puck up ice, but he doesn’t do it all that often. He can deliver a stretch pass to a breaking forward with ease. He makes very smart plays with the puck and knows where to be at the right times. He’s known more for his defensive presence, however."

doesn't sound like a strictly "stay at home" type... I think they reached a bit but it could pay off huge... that's kinda what the draft is about.

great we drafted a moron wtf is home doing

Hhaaaaaaaaaa.

Since when does it ever matter what everyone thinks on Draft day?

love everyone crying

if they drafted a forward everyone would be crying that they never draft a dman.

they draft a dman - OMG NOT THAT DMAN, SHOULD HAVE PICKED A FORWARD

all dmen at this point of the draft are "projects"
