yeah the TSN guys didn't have a good answer. just sorta said that every team must have had 1 guy on their list they liked better. nothing wrong with him at all apparently. gross if it's just a sick steal for the Caps.

Pronman's saying some scouts don't buy him as a top-level talent but he didnt really specify why

if DH was still running the show, Maatta would be a stone-cold lock.

Wouldn't that have been built into the rankings and mock drafts?

lots of guys play in the SEL as young guys and put up less than half a PPG and they always get the qualifier that the played well for someone so young; he didn't.

Also 1a in 6 games at the WJC

He appears to be a giant, so he's got that. I'm surprised Burke didn't take him at 5.

jesus christ McPhee. Why the hell would you draft a bottom 6 player at 16 with a top 10 talent still on the board? He gets a god damn gift and passes on Grigorenko then takes a ****ing grinder with Teravainen right there waiting.
