Fun Fact: A GM is responsible for trading a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd round pick in this draft for teams that have done nothing for years.

...and now we know Al's real name lol.. Hello Wes.I don't trust anyone named Wes.
I think most people who watched Danford play in 2024 would say at the very least that he stood out. Those who watched the OHL playoffs even more so.I'll give Clark credit.
He's got confidence. This is the third year in a row he reached. I've obviously never seen Danford play.
But he sure fits the profile I was hoping for.
At this point I'll give Clark the benefit of doubt. He made a couple nice picks in Cowan and Minten. No reason to think he didn't do the same here.
God knows I couldn't do any better.
I'm happy with Clark's performance so far. This was a good appointment by Dubas. Assigning Clark head of amateur scouting might prove to be the best thing Dubas did during his tenure here.
Depending on if any of his picks actually make the NHL that is.
what a call!I think it's only a matter of time until Clark joins Dubas in Pittsburgh.
Those were a couple pretty big reaches he made. Takes some real balls to do that twice. Makes me think Clark is just another executive with a "smartest guy in the room" attitude.
Because trying to beat the market is usually a fools game.
I believe in the free market. And the NHL draft is as laissez-faire as it gets. Minten and Cowen weren't undervalued.
They were drafted at the exact place they should have been drafted.
At the point when someone was willing to draft them. In this case, Wesley Clark. We'll see soon enough if Clark is the Warren Buffet of the NHL draft I guess.
If he's still with this team, or not, is another question altogether.
Yup, he has been a Dubas guy since the greyhounds·! Now he is a penguin· Tough guy to replace.what a call!
Called it well, very nice job!I think it's only a matter of time until Clark joins Dubas in Pittsburgh.

He became the head draft guy for the Leafs after the Knies draft.
That's pretty awful news for the Leafs.
In a way not surprising, he and Dubas have been very close during their careers. Perhaps Tre wasn't able to build the relationship quick enough.
Either way, no ill will to Clark, cheers for Knies and Cowan!

He was head of amateur scouting then,.no?
BoomI think it's only a matter of time until Clark joins Dubas in Pittsburgh.
Got bored with no picks, Dubas long con game lol
Just as I was starting to like Clark too.
Dubas also hired Mann. Earlier in this thread I suggested him as someone the Leafs could take a look at. Dubas is making some good moves in Pittsburgh.
Which makes me wonder if the problem really was Shanahan this whole time.
