If I had a nickel for every time a parent thought their child was destined for sporting greatness only to fizzle out in their teens I’d have a handful of nickels.

Coached AAA hockey for 10 years. Saw and heard some hilarious things.

Seattle isn't gonna get rid of him... So stop with the whole trade ideas.

Well he's been kinda sucking. It wouldn't surprise me if Seattle tried to move him.

Necas for Wright ?

This guy peaked at 16. Just been trending down since then. Never a fan of drafting players on downward trends, especially something high like in the top 5.

Jake Virtanen 2.0. But he'd have to get 18 goals in the NHL

6 goals so far in 3 years...yikes

Even if he completely flames out of NHL, you can make good money playing in the AHL on 2-way deals or over in Europe.

I feel like people have some kind of vendetta against the kid based on hype when he was 15.

Probably has to do with his obvious arrogance & entitlement.

Guy 3rd in league scoring for a prospect struggling to stay in the lineup of a mediocre team. Seems like a fair value. Even more fair seems Paul Cotter and a 3rd. Would you take that?
