In Pach's article, he suggests that we don't worry about the upcoming draft because DeVine will oversee it. Wasn't DeVine responsible for some of the terrible draft years that have left us in the predicament that we are presently in?
- SabreWest

the benning years, which ended in 2006 were desolate...devine had a tough 2007 draft but after that he had some hits...and don't forget, that was the era of the VideoScout3000 where his scouting department was three hockeybuzzards watching pirated hockey games

I dislike Harrington just as much as everyone else here but he does bring a good point, do we really need the 8th overall pick this year? We've been stockpiling picks for years now and to no real results.

the draft picks made from 2012-14 had plenty of developmental picks that have been tucked away in college and overseas...now's about the time when the wheat is separated from the chaff

I was busy this afternoon pach and didn't read blog til now (sorry).

I actually expressed (here, yesterday, I think) the same opinion you attribute to Harrington in the blog.

This leads me to believe my idea was utterly franking stupid and off base.

I dont disagree with his thinking or harringtons even though personally it wouldnt be my approach for right now.

just not sure where he got stockpiling from. Most of our surplus was used on bringing in nhl talent whose impact and value have been of great debate.

for all the talk about moving picks for nhl talent, in the time TM was here the most promising defencemen he brought in was a 2nd rounder who we project could be better than mccabe.

Just a thought.

am of the opinion that his major focus was upon the forward group which was atrocious when he got here

Oh i know im just saying that while the idea of moving the pick for an established player is attractive it tends to back fire more often than not especially for teams that arent close.

For every hamilton trade there's a griffin reinhart deal. If they can get a top tier guy thats great if not i hope they dont settle just to make the playoffs right away.

They absolutely have been stockpiling picks. They just don't actually make them.
