I dont feel as bed when I see a major goof like Pens selecting Derrick Pouliot 1 spot before Jacob Trouba in the top 10 in 2012
- MrBigglesworth


Winnepeg has had some good picks recently with Trouba, Ehlers, and Morrissey.

Take a look at the 2007 NHL draft and some of the defenseman taken ahead of Subban. Flyers weren't the only team that missed that boat.
- MJL


But most experts had Subban as the best available defenseman when Marshall was picked. I wouldn't chide them for not selecting him in the first round or well before he was predicted to go but when he's the best available, I feel a little disappointed.

encouraging performance from the kids. just nice to see them in a game all at the same time. i'm planning the parade as we speak.

I'd agree with Bill that Madison Bowey stood out. Aside from the hit on Morin, seemed really calm and confident with and without the puck. I think that pick will turn out to be a steal for them.

- MrBigglesworth


Is this sarcasm? Trouba's good (better than anyone currently on the Flyers defense), but Pouliot just tied the WHL record for playoff scoring by a defenseman. I'd at least let the guy skate a few games in the NHL before calling that pick a "major goof."

I love when a player is stoned on a point blank chance, and then immediately checks his stick on the ice!

That wasn't the play. He didn't take a fighting major at that point. He took a cross checking minor.

...I know. The fight was towards the center of the ice. Wasn't talking about the fight, I was talking about him sticking up for his teammates.

It reminds me when a baseball fielder makes an error and immediately looks at their glove, like it was the glove's fault.
