Prospect Info: CHL Playoffs (Road to the Memorial Cup)

[Treb]

Yes, but we're just armchair people having fun. I've been continuously told, and just 5 minutes ago, that pros know best. And since it makes sense that they usually do because they have all the infos we don't have, picks made by teams should never be made with what we thought. But rather what the end result is.

Having said all of that, it's obviously not too late for Mysak. There are to be something going on, and it's probably an injury. If not, that seems like a plateau to me. So I hope it's an injury.

My point is that both pros and fans liked the pick, therefore I wouldn't say it was a bad pick.

To me, bad picks are picks you can tell are bad even without hindsight. Like Crisp.

Mysak was a good pick, even if the result might end up disappointing.

Well that's not how I see it. 2012 was the ultimate great looking draft for us. This board is never close to being unamimous except...that day. Galchy, Collberg, Thrower, Bozon, Vail even Hudon. Everyboyd loved that draft. And it ends up a bad one. Yet, despite us loving it, there is NO WORLD (my new favorite expression) that will come to the conclusion that 2012 for us was a great draft. Not happening. Great looking. Surely. Great. Not a chance.

So great looking picks aren't equal to actually great picks. The day that we put armchair scouts opinions as the same as the ones paid the big bucks to make decisions is the day where either we need to be paid to post our opinions....or they need to be doing their job as a volunteer...

Hamilton goes up 1-0

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Winterton is in. Should be a huge boost for Hamilton. He assisted on the goal.

 

[JuicyHam]

Sobolev isn't great at much and I don't think we end up signing him but every once in a while he does try to murder someone with a big hit and that's always fun

 

[Gillings]

Guhle MVP!! Will be very tough to keep him out of the lineup next year. If not straight out of training camp, at some point in the year he will come up to the big club.

Why?

Poehling has shown some of the highest promise you can find in a centre..

 

[MarkovsKnee]

In this case, it's Mysak!

It was Mysak, not so fun!

 

[Matthew McConaughay]

1-0 Hamilton.

 

[jrom]

In this case, it's Mysak!

Whenever I watch Hamilton and Mysak is not injured he always has some “Jake Evans” moment where he gets shoved in the boards or makes a bad fall or gets hit hard.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

2-0 Bulldogs, but may be highstick on the tip.

Xhekaj shot.

 

[Adam Michaels]

The Hamilton coach having to pull Xhekaj and Hayes to the side to tell them to calm down in the skirmish.

 

[Belial]

Looks good to me

 

[Matthew McConaughay]

Looks good to me

Yeah, to me too.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Looks like Hayes's goal off the shaft of his stick & not the blade, so even though blade is high, I think this is good. It's where it hits the stick.

 

[Adam Michaels]

It looked like it was a double deflection.

 

[Whitesnake]

OH my god Xhejaj! Love him. Inviting Cuylle to dance and Will is...not interested...lol

 

[Adam Michaels]

Good goal

 

[Whitesnake]

Well the stick is high....but the puck touches mid stick no?

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

I know I'd want none of Xhekaj if I were a junior player.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Yup! Goal! 2-0 Hamilton.

PP too!

 

[Adam Michaels]

Biggie!!!

 

[Belial]

It hits Hayes shaft below the crossbar, should be a good goal

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Well the stick is high....but the puck touches mid stick no?

Yes.

It's where the puck hits the stick.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Here comes the Ax... and here comes the Smasher (Romanov)
