[Unfriendly Ghost]

Fire Holland. This is unacceptable.

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

rip bust

 

[golffuul]

Love the pick. We need size down the middle.

 

[Petes2424]

Been saying it for a month. Rasmussen is a scouts dream and that I doubted he'd still be on the board but it would be a surprise if they passed on him. We shall see. Could end up being best player in this draft.

 

[Sparkzuk]

vilardi and liljegrin on the board, selects the the ent that can only score on the pp

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

Love the pick. We need size down the middle.

He's not going to be a scoring line center. If he plays on a scoring line at all, it'll be on the wing. We essentially drafted another winger.

 

[Vladdy84]

underwhelming pick

 

[Goalie guy]

Blaa like his size lets see what he can do.

Tippett too.

 

[PullHard]

Do not want

 

[jaster]

I'm at the draft, watched the pick in person. Believe me, kid is going to be awesome.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Hope these scouts know something that we don't, Because this was a terrible pick. Vilardi, Necas, Tippet, Liljegren any of them would've been better then Rasmussen.

 

[HisNoodliness]

I legitimately think this pick will be laughed at forever. Worst case scenario. I hate this team so much.

 

[jaster]

(I have no idea if he'll be awesome, ya'll are just ridiculous)

 

[Heaton]

I'm at the draft, watched the pick in person. Believe me, kid is going to be awesome.

Man, you could tell all that by watching the pick being made? Amazing.

 

[Heaton]

(I have no idea if he'll be awesome, ya'll are just ridiculous)

Why? Because they have a non-positive opinion? Obviously no one really knows what he'll develop to but people can believe whatever they want.

 

[rangersblues]

Yup.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Okay we'll take your word for it.

 

[DetroitRed]

I thought Rassmussen was supposed to be more like a tenth or 11th pick. The Wings took him at ninth when Vilardi, who was supposed to be a 4th or 5th pick, not to mention a few others raked better were still available.

Is this a new way of tanking? Or maybe he's a guy who interviews well. Or something.

 

[Ishad]

How fast is he?

 

[ShanahanMan]

Holland can't even make an obvious pick. Just unbelievable. We are a ****ing laughing stock.

In his interview he says he picked him cause "he has character".

God I can't wait until he's gone.

 

[Konnan511]

But...why?

 

[DetroitRed]

Big Bird is big and has character too.
