I’m gonna need the Caps to send a team over there to present him with a jersey, do a photo op like he just got drafted.
This is like being traded on your bobble head night.

Really think teams would make smarter picks by cutting their scouting departments by 80%. These people fall in love with players. Their whole job is to tell you to disbelief what the hard evidence suggests.I know everyone doesn't follow football, but one of the big takeaways from the avalanche of data that we have gotten in the last decade or so is that while no one is great at drafting, the ones who are worse at it than everyone else are those that are overconfident in their personal board.
That's the Flyers in a nutshell. And it's so much worse to do it in a sport where projections are for significantly younger players.
They are so weird. Sometimes they take Zellweger and Smith. Sometimes they take Solberg and Warren.Ducks adding another nice Dman
Do you like Berglund? Wasn’t even on my radar.Kurt Overhardt vs the Flyers man.
2-0 aha.
(this is conjecture)
A middle 6 center. A 4th line center. A bottom pair dman.
but I was told to buckle up.

That's where I was at when we took him, 2nd we needed more upside even if it doesn't pan outWould have been fine in the 3rd... not the 2nd.
I dont see more than a 3rd liner.
I understand the philosophy here completely. What I don't personally know is how the NHL sets up their departments. I can speak to the NFL.
Generally, A prospects are those given a Grade of Round 1-3. At least five people do indpendent evaluations -- the local area Scout (Southeast, etc), the regional Scout (East), a national Scout, the head of College Scouting, and then the AGM or whoever is ultimately in charge of the amateur wing. That's 4 independent instances of cross-checking designed to filter out outliers.
Then of course it's up to the decision makers to synthesize the info well.
Seems like this years version of Cagnoni.Misa still being there is crazy.
He is a pretty similar archetype to Luchanko... not quite as good, and almost a year older, and more likely to kick out to wing.
BUT ridiculous he has fell so far.
