Look at that beard. Wow

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Of course Winnipeg takes Colby Barlow.

 

[sampollock]

Man , good pick Chevy

 

[Whitesnake]

30-year old Barlow chosen finally. Never give up on your dreams kids.

 

[Schooner Guy]

They're good, but not Bedard good.

Better than the 2022 draft though.

Agreed they're not Bedard good. That's not exactly a reasonable standard though.

 

[Team_Spirit]

Pablo to the Jets

Will be better tha Dubust. Congrats Jets.

 

[Mrb1p]

atleast we are not bald
@Mrb1p sorry <3

Im bald but Im f***ing hot tho

 

[OnTheRun]

Elite beard to handle the Peg's winter. Smart pick.

 

[Hacketts]

This feeling of despair is slow to leave...

Sooo much talent, such a slog of a season to get through... and we're rewarded with disappointment.

If this player doesn't hit and with Carey's call on the pick... I will take this to my grave.

 

[sampollock]

Man Barlow
Future Capt
Ha! Hear that Kent

 

[Ozmodiar]

Colby Barlow has just requested a trade.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

I thought Barlow was going to go higher. Nice pick for the Jets!

 

[Kairi Zaide]

Im bald but Im f***ing hot tho

No you'Re not.

 

[Gainesvillain]

Jets trade PLD...then pick up Barlow a day later.

Plus they get Vilardi Kupari & Iafallo.

We tank for a year and get Reinbacher & freaking Alex Newhook.

 

[Demigod Gloves]

John Snow to the jets

 

[Kairi Zaide]

How is the 2024 top 5? We are going to be there again, but obviously find a way to mess up the pick again in 2024. Just want to know if 2024 is gonna hurt because we will pass again on elite talent, or it's a weak draft.

The next "big" prospect seems to be Misa in 2025. Kind of matched McDavid's production in his D-2 OHL season, it seems.

 

[Schooner Guy]

Exactly. I don't give a SHIT about entertainment. I want guys who will show up in the playoffs. MB had it partially right. Karacter but with talent.

It's obvious that a large percent don't watch the playoffs when the Habs are out. Teams couldn't do anything against Vegas's D. Their 3rd string goalie was able to win the Cup basically sitting in a rocking chair.

 

[BenchBrawl]

I wanted to burn my Montreal jerseys but with the forest fires situation, I'll wait until autumn arrives.

I'll post the vid when it's done. Too bad the timing won't fit, I wish it could go viral so the brass understands that such betrayals are an even GREATER RISK than picking a Russian.

 

[Rob Sense]

You already have lane Hutson, you already have Logan Mailloux.... This is not a fit

THIS IS NOT A FIT.

there were so many other needs to address.

I think they believe that both are not sure things at the NHL level.

 

[MON4NHLTOR4MLB]

I can’t stand Lapointes draft. Was confused how he didn’t get shipped out with Timmins and then they bring in Bobrov of all people that pounded the table for Slaf. What happened to the high offensive fast team Hughes talked about during his hiring presser?

 

[Schooner Guy]

I thought Barlow was going to go higher. Nice pick for the Jets!

A great character guy who will be happy playing at a Canadian rink.

 

[sampollock]

Tough guy fits Peg

 

[Hacketts]

The funniest thing if we would of lost that last game, he wouldn't be there.. hahahahaha...

I hope he's a stud.

 

[Team_Spirit]

Colby holding back tears

Would have been a great Habs.

 

[Whitesnake]

Thing is...so many good players left. But we don't have the picks to get them. A team that sucked that much for 2 years. We cannot pick high 1st round. We can't trade nobody.

Really a deflating night. And it won't pick up tomorrow.
