Every fan base praying it isn't their guy. Lol
Yeah, I went back and asterisked guys who either made it to the AHL or went to Europe last year.
Bear in mind it’s not disqualifying since Marek didn’t specifically say they were current junior players, but it seems less likely that a guy who’s moving up the ladder is the one he’s talking about.
Arizona = Strome.You also need to take out teams that wouldn't be called "Very prominent teams". Teams like AZ and Carolina certainly don't fall into that category.
???? Robert Thomas just won OHL Playoffs MVP. That's not exactly struggling.He also said that player would not likely play in the NHL and all of those guys seems like that they have really good odds in making it so it must be some lesser known guy like Robert Thomas for example who seems to be struggling in the minors or something.
Is 22nd a "High Pick" though?
He says this: " it’s a terrible story because this guy is a good junior hockey player."
He's talking about someone who is currently a junior player. So it's someone drafted in 2016 or 2017 and still playing junior (or just finished at the end of this year). Add in the kicker for a 'very, very prominent' franchise and it's basically down to:
"And again, this is information that’s six months old. Actually, you might say a year old now."
It's not in the kid's interests for internet sleuths to figure it out and then out him on board like hfboards, just leave it.
In the OP it says a very very prominent NHL team.not going to give rogers a click so was the article clear on a prominent NHL franchise or could it possibly be interpreted that it is a prominent CHL franchise?
I feel like there is too much focus on the "very very prominent franchise" comment.
Most commentators would consider any NHL team "prominent".
