To be fair, he is projected to be a 2nd line winger at best.

Likely rounds out as a 3rd liner who can fill in on 2nd line duty.

What??? Says who?

If we wasted our 1st overall pick on top 9 winger , that would be awful...

The coach can play players that will be here in the future note than those who won't, that's what development is.

Coaching is very much part of this.

Losing is fine, losing while playing nobodies and others that aren't long-term players is bad development.

Name me one team that only plays their young prospects during a rebuild , I'll wait.

Nothing is set in stone, sir.

I am just saying we need to set expectations correctly.

Both Slaf and Wright are projected 2nd liners.

A moment of silence for the poster who drove 5 hours to see their first game at the Bell Centre tonight
Which reminds me. My Buddy offered me a pair of tickets for later this year. I told him I wanted the low hanging fruit and opted for the Hawks in Feb. I've always wanted to see a tank war in person without the possibility of dying. :laugh:

He is not projected as a 2nd line winger by HuGo. If they thought that they would have taken Cooley, Nemec or Jiricek.

They’re already doing that.

You know, they can’t clone Caufield, Suzuki, Dach, Slafkovsky and the kids on defence to make them play 60 minutes

Absolutely.

I know on TSN's draft projections he was.

Again, it inherently doesn't mean much but we can't expect Slaf to be Matthews' or anywhere near that kind of player..

Have we ever won wearing these sweaters? I don't think so.
I vote we should wear them for the rest of the year. In Bedard's honour.

Yeah, they f***ing put me on the 4th line with some others losers. What did you expect? Pfffff. f***ing coach.

Our 4th liners get a ton of PP time. :sarcasm:
