Me and other people were up in arms over DW picking Meier with Rantanen still on the board, and we caught flak for complaining. Our worst season in ages, top 10 pick, and DW screws it up. Predictably. For every good decision he makes (signing Donskoi), he makes multiple idiotic ones. (signing Hannan/Huskins/etc, ignoring the glaring hole on D for years, this pick, effectively trading Paccioretty in return for Craig Rivet, picking Gabyriel Boudreau over, well, anyone, trading a 2nd for Tyler Kennedy, feuding with Thornton last season, should I go on?)
Rantanen is destroying the AHL as an 18 year old, where he's 3rd in points per game for the entire league. Meier is 19, and isn't even in top-5 points per game in Juniors. Why do I have a disturbing feeling that we're re-living Portland taking Sam Bowie over Jordan, with us in the Portland role?
