I said in 2022 that stuart skinner was not an nhl goalie

It was awhile ago, and not a major trade at all, but I remember advocating that Edmonton and Anaheim swapping Andy Sutton for Kurtis Foster would be a logical trade for both teams, and it happened a week or so later.

panthers cup: one and done

I've got a few right. I called Neal Pionk in the Trouba trade. I called Morgan Barron in the Copp trade. I predicted the Jets C/RW signings in the offseason 2 years in a row, with Riley Nash and Sam Gagner. I predicted Kristian Reichel as a better prospect than Kristian Vesalainen. And called Parker Ford's ascension to the NHL this year. I also predicted a bounce back year from Neal Pionk.

Now the things I have predicted wrong are far greater, so I'd still consider myself an Idiot, in a Dostoevsky sense.

I've had the right picks in a number of mock drafts over the years, including one that the mock draft response looked more like a riot up to the moment the team made the selections.

Also predicted on NYE of 2006 that that moment could be the high water mark for the team for a long time coming. How little did I want that to be right.

That Tyler Myers sucks before Canucks signed him
That Tyler Myers sucked during his tenure
That Tyler Myers continues to suck in his Canucks tenure

Also that 4 Michigan players would go top 5 in 2021. Because of travel restrictions to scout that year it was like a guarantee.

I remember stating that Greg Joly would be a bust way back in ‘74. I can’t find a link right now, but I definitely said it.

I couldn’t find that one in particular, but i do recall you having this fantastic prediction.

That Lafrenierre was overrated and wouldn't come anywhere close to projections some on here and in the media had for him.

I was at the Oilers draft party one year (the Nuge/Klefbom draft year). I was on a roll that day. I was at a table with a guy I had just met, and we were betting who the next pick was going to be. One drink per correct answer that the other guy didn't get. We We were both correct for most of the early picks - top 10 to mid teens, I don't recall when it happened, but I went on a run of 7 or 8 in a row. Instead of buying me the whole amount, I asked him to buy me two and a drink for the other 4 at the table, and we'd call it even. He was more preturbed about not getting the picks right than we was about having to buy a round for the table. Good times!

Not mine and it wasn't a post here, but I told a dude at work years ago that I had an HFBoards account and he said I'd never get laid.

I predicted Erik Karlsson would not be a good fit for the Pens.

Not exactly earth shattering.

I was laughed at by some on here when I said he would score 60-65 points at most last year. Didn't even hit 60.
