He was part of the Bruins organization too. Toronto traded Bancroft to Boston for Rob Cimetta ( another former 1st round flop ) in 1990. Bancroft played 1.5 seasons for Maine before getting traded to Chicago for a pair of late round picks in 1992 and 1993.

Let's hope the kid has more of an impact in Boston then his Dad did.
Shane Vansaghi becomes draft eligible this year and is a few months younger than Letourneau. He had 6G and 10A this year at Michigan St. That said was part of the NTDP but was considered a grinder type.

I am was not using that post to make some sneaky claim about Letourneau's quality as a first rounder, just that he is uncommon as a true freshman in these high profile programs. I am sure he isn't the only one.
This Letourneaus stuff is boring, lets wait and see next season

Divver invites it with his BS.
He’s no better than the “clowns” he’s throwing jabs at. Never used to be like this…but I guess it’s whatever gets him clicks, right?

I like this cranky Divver. Need to add him to NESN next year.
Only if they let him video call in from his couch

That might be tough. NESN and tech invented after 1997

It looks more like a Lazy Boy from 1988.

Sweeney's facility with signing college talent, drafted or undrafted, has always been his strongest suit.
The scouting staff that has evaluated and recommended that talent (which I imagine has changed over the years) deserves major credit for scouring the college ranks and often finding valuable additions, or gems like Torey Krug, to Boston's arsenal.
Kudos all around & I hope young Dalton can contribute going forward.
