He didn't had much choice for Leblanc, draft was in Montreal, I don't think I need to explain further.

As for Fischer, apparently it was Gauthier who asked for a defenceman. I can't find it, but I remember reading an article on RDS where Giroux said he thought the Habs would take him, because he had a lenghty interview with them and that they really looked interested. He was even prepared to stand up when Timmins approached the podium.

Whether that's true or not, I guess we'll never know, but there are some stories like this one on every team. Drafting isn't an exact science, and sometimes you make a terrible choice, but it happens to every team. See Hugh Jessiman by the NY Rangers for instance.

It was Pat Westrum who wanted Fischer. Guy had a huge hard on for him and had been following him for a few years now.

Timmins lives in the Ottawa region, so he knew full well how good Giroux was.

The GM(Gainey?)probably sliced in favor of Westrum because the prospect pool for Ds was empty back then.
