You don't need to explain the draft.

not to you...you're an intelligent person, some others need convincing though lol.

As a general statement, British people love Indian food, and for good reason, it's awesome.

Im british and love indian food....so apparently this is correct!

Is this a game of bounces and luck or what ....

Odds alway favor high up the draft okay. But it can be a gamble too plenty of busts there. Just like gems found lower down... Bure ... best Canuck draft ever... for one. BB a high end prospect taken late first round could be another. It all depends on luck and draft year. Why the draft is a gamble especially when there is the lotto. So main point is draft well. But you got to do everything else (trade, sign, develop) right too. That means not trying to lose either. It only breeds ineptitude.

I try with you but you're one of the dumbest poops I've ever come across on these boards. It's like trying to explain the world isn't flat to you?

Yes there's luck involved with the draft but the VAST MAJORITY of the greatest players to ever play the sport come from high in the draft....there's empirical evidence that supports this.

DD injured so Skilless gets the dobble shift ... why play young shooting Bo more who needs goals....right WD.

Markstrom needs a GPS to find his crease. Half his goals against, he's not even in front of the net...

Sigh.

Glass Richardson threw himself at Tryamkin's waste it appears...
