Fook....sorry guys - I was posting on the go. Don't act like out to rip off clicks or something.

“I want to win, and I want to win a Stanley Cup and win it for Chicago. That’s the goal.”

Don’t know why but this gave me chills. The hometown kid gets it. Was 7 years old or so when the hawks won it the first time, then 10, and then 12.

Give buddy a god damn letter

Yeah honeslty his mindset is picture perfect and I'm liking him more and more.

What a change and a success story. Hope he's here his whole career.

Corey Pronman's NHL prospects I was wrong about, 2024 edition. AKA "The Full Musto". Vlasic tops the list.

He wasn’t amazing in school, but the tools still looked excellent and I shouldn’t have moved the needle so drastically from a guy I projected as a No. 4-6 NHL D to someone who wouldn’t play.

Everyone was wrong about Vlasic. Including the people who liked him, and including everyone in the Blackhawks front office.

Even those that thought he'd be a player, didn't think he'd be this good.

Nice try. Nobody was close to as verbal or adamant that he was a wasted pick as you were.

You can't take credit for being right if you won't own being wrong.

I've stated on numerous occasions I was wrong about Vlasic

Pretty sure I even made a dedicated thread for it at one point

I didn't?

I just said everyone else was wrong about Vlasic too.

Google what does it mean when someone is deflecting?

No one thought he’d be this good. No one else claimed it was a bad pick.

Kind of like Forsling. Some players just pleasantly surpise us
