I doubt anyone in their right mind would want that job.
Branch never had one decent comment directed his way. Has the world record for being booed in the most venues ever.
i think one pretty good hockey guy initially applied and was offered the job but turned it down. not been mentioned in mainstream media at all.I doubt anyone in their right mind would want that job.

The Rangers were honouring Paul Coffey a few years ago. They had Branch come out on the ice and of course he was mercifully booed. When it died down Coffey had the mike in his hand. Said it sounded like they were calling for someone named Lou. Something along that line.
Hopefully u feel better about yourself, u knew who i meant but wanted to correct me, lmao.
Ohl draft is interesting, u see players dominating less than when they were 13 or 14, they are on a downcurve vs their peers and players are leveling the gap, But people cant let go of the past and push on, get emotional.

I appreciated the correction even if OP didn't. It's good for those of us not as familiar with these players to at leaat be reading the right names.

Seems like the comment earlier about Aiden O'Donnell choosing the OHL is correct. Not on the QMJHL cup roster.
This kid is good. He should be a mid to late first round pick IMO. He was a top 3-5 pick for the QMJHL Draft for me, and is a much better player than Landon Sim, for example, at the same age.
i dont really know him, sim has not been great in sarnia but i dont think that he is ready for the ohl either.
Was referring to his brother Landon who plays in London, but, either way, he is much better than both at the same age. Just chose them as they are recent Nova Scotian players that have gone the OHL route who I have had the chance to watch.
landon sim is not a point a game guy in the ohl and 19, thats not a 1st round ohl pick. its hard to gauge what u18 in nova scotia means in ontario, but your probably right that hes a mid to late 1st. did well at the youth games.
for what it’s worth it looks like tph has 2/3 pretty strong Detroit kids on the roster

Teams have likely seen plenty of them. More eyes on some others
Are there any "tiers" for the draft this year or is it somewhat of a crapshoot? From what I've read it seems to be that the consensus is there is a top 3 (Valentini/Belchetz/Wassilyn) - is there any gaps after those three? Should anyone else belong with them?
I would take Di Iorio over those 3. He's the closest clone to Ryan Roobrook imho, and Ryan on a last place team is killing it.
