If you think you're drafting a guy that might be able to command 14 million in contract negotiations you flip the table over on your way to the podium

That is a crazy take. Misa strikes me as the kind of player that will drive a coach crazy with his lack of commitment and attention to defense. I'll take the flip side of that bet and say he'll struggle to get ice time despite his stellar offensive skills.

I didn't say he won't be a star. I just don't see him winning a cup. He will be the first overall pick in this upcoming draft. But my favourite is Misa.

Misa I see being a similar or better player than Dylan Larkin with a lot more upside. What I love about Misa is he just goes to the right places and makes things happen. But I also love to make takes that are crazy.

Mind you, I did call McTavish going high in the 2021 NHL Draft before covid.

A statistical curiosity. If Hagens was in the chl, for a weak or average team, what would his stat line be? Something like 50-80-130 in 60 games?
