Prospect Info: LAK Draft (2nd, 2020) C Quinton Byfield - Sudbury Wolves, OHL

[kilowatt]

The pick I wanted. Now we can proceed to arguing about whether he makes the team next year or not.

I heard from a guy in Ottawa that he definitely won’t make the team ever.

No, the argument in 3-4 years would be if LA would have picked LAF or QB if they had the first pick!!

I keep thinking about the possibility that the Kings got the best player in the draft.

I’ve been saying that for awhile. In 10 years time when a redraft is done, Byfield will be the first overall pick

10 years? People on the main board will be doing a re-draft next week.

Had a rough day at work. Then Trump comes out and stops any talks regarding Stimulus. My stocks tank. Hey at least I can celebrate the Kings taking Stutzle.
Nope.

Is Byfield being drafted by the Kings the worst thing to happen to you?

Stutzle came into this knowing there were two realistic options: Drafted by L.A and have to live with persistent smog, massive forest fires, and the possibility of a mega-earthquake at any time ... Or go to Ottawa and have to live with Melnyk.

I feel bad for him.
(Edit: As in, he got the second best option)

I would seriously feel bad for Ottawa if their fans weren't such Richards on our board since the draft lottery.
We've been there with bankrupt and inept owners and known the suck and I would normally sympathize, but I seriously hope that while fanbase gets severe constipation for like a month

Love how the McKenzie changed his tune on the pick a minute before. That was their rallying cry for freaking months. Gospel spoken by the Canadian treasure himself. I remember one of those clowns posting Kings local reporters vs McKenzie? I'll take Bob's word. But as always, local vs national every time.

Now that we know the season won't start until sometime in January, i'm even more convinced that Byfield should spend the year in Sudbury, assuming the OHL season starts in early December.

CBA experts, could he theoretically start the season in Sudbury and then be called up to the big team for camp and 9 games or a full ride?

Kings' Twitter stating that he stating to media that he has never been to California before where is the first place he should go in LA?



Lots of replies saying In N Out, obviously. I was hoping to go there a few days back and I found out that the nearest location by my house closed. Anywho, my answer would actually be The Wiltern Theater once concerts can run safely again. Beautiful theater. I've been there for 6 concerts there and have always a great experience at the venue more than any other concert venues in LA.

His "um, ya know"s per 60 are already NHL level

It's been allowed during lockout shortened seasons, but I could see a scenario where either side wouldn't want to do that for player safety reasons.

The beach. I tell anyone that's never been here before to go to the beach.

And that's a good reason to throw away a year on his ELC playing for a non-playoff team? Don't think so.

 

[DrHansReinhardt]

His "yah, no"s are elite level as well.

Straight to Venice for QB.

Straight to Disneyl...oh wait.

Option 2: The beach, then some fish tacos in Manhattan beach.

Nope losing $10,000 in the market today was the worst. Kings taking Byfield over Stutzle was second.
