He won't make the team
After calling Fisher a bust 2 seconds after he was drafted and Kristo a waste 10 minutes after his name was called I get a lifetime exemption.

I will get banned again soon, worry not.
I'll bet McCagg probably thinks that Jason Ward is still young enough to make a comeback and prove him right (finally), eh Count?

So it sounds like you throw out uninformed opinions on players you know nothing about... and you got a couple "right." 2 seconds and 10 minutes after they were drafted?
As they say, even a blind squirrel finds an acorn once in awhile.
Who says they were uninformed? I can do the same google searches you do on players.
But you called these guys busts immediately after they were drafted... how could you have known? Had you searched them before the Habs actually drafted them?
I recall you being quite upset when the Habs drafted McDonagh instead of Angelo Esposito in 2007. Just saying.
Then u recall incorrectly
Perhaps but you definitely wanted the Habs to somehow get their hands on him draft day.
I'll admit that I was wrong about that. I thought the talented local boy was the way to go and I was upset when we took the dman. Boy was I wrong.
That's the point. 99% of us here have never seen these guys play before they were drafted so we're just guessing . . . so being proven "right" or "wrong" many years later is meaningless.
all those saying we should have taken Kreider agree with you
If anything, I stated all things being equal, take the local guy. Obviously Max was considered unequal to Angelo.
I think Angelo was taken before Max by a pick or two.
you might be right
