Lol at the people getting mad about how they paid tribute to the scout with a 7th round pick. I'm sure you are all bundles of joy and are great at parties.

It is nice gesture but usually when you pay tribute to someone you try to do something nice, Considering we land players like Evans and Primeau in the 7 th trying to land a actual NHL player would have be a better tribute and maybe a acknowledge him during the first pick when everyone is watching... wasting a asset regardless how worthless that asset is is still not the greatest idea...

so you throw away a draft pick as a tribute ? Seems like a slap in the face for a scout. Like , ‘in honour of all your years of work at Ferrari we are giving your a Honda Civic as a gesture. ‘

The BCHL regular season ended tonight. Ruscheinski finished the season with 6 pts (all assists) in 36 GP. He missed 22 games due to injury.

I wonder where he'll end up going next, as far as I know he's yet to commit to a school officially . Henrikson managed to find a division 1 team willing to take him so he should land somewhere . Going back to the BCHL could be an option as well or switching to the USHL.

He's not committed to any NCAA college, but in an article in the Calgary Sun, they wrote that he will be in the BCHL next year and then jump to the NCAA.

There is nothing there.
He was drafted solely as a tribute to the 47 year scouting career of Elmer Benning who died last year. They wanted to pick at least one player he scouted in his last year. I think the organization knows hes not good enough

Salmon Arm won Game 1 against Victoria last night. No points for Ruscheinski and 2 PIM. Game 2 is tonight.

Good to see Ruscheinski get on the scoresheet a little more consistently since returning from injury.
He had 3 pts in his first 30 games before be went down to injury for about a month and a half.
Since he came back, he had 3 pts in his final 6 games. And 1 goal in 4 playoff games.
So he has 4 pts (1G, 3A) in his last 10 games.

We'll all be looking back at this moment as a turning point when he signs his ELC in 2024

So glade we drafted that triple A guy instead of Oksentyuk who was in our radar. I love how Bergevin knows he just wasted that pick even though he believes in his dart analogy. Taking Ruscheinski isn't throwing a dart at the dartboard, it's throwing a paper airplane at the dartboard.
Doing what we did with the Ruscheinski pick with a dart board in a local pub would get you thrown out of the pub.

MB is not responsible for the draft picks. That's on TT. I wouldn't blame the GM for our dog poop picks. MB, however, is responsible for TT still making the decisions when it comes to the draft. He should have been fired by now.

Bergevin believes that any pick is like a dart and it seems like they both wanted to honour a scout by picking a horrible player. Timmins just sucks at his job, it's not his fault that he is still employed.

How about honoring the scout by making a pick that isn't laughable? It's a disrespect more than anything really.

Pretty sure that at parties, you don't pay tribute to the one who organize it by pissing on a plant....
Other organization, when a longtime scout dies, dedicate their 1st rounder to him. Or dedicate the entire draft to him. In Montreal, we dedicate a 7th rounder pick that has the potential to be the worst pick ever.
If that's how Montreal organizes parties....I don't see how joyful we should be....

It's just insane that you keep hearing Bergevin saying and whining how it's a crapshoot even late 1st round, and yet, he decides on some picks to crapshoot the crapshoot....lol
I find it hilarious that the article mentions Ruscheinski and Parayko in the same breath. Parayko played NCAA immediately after getting drafted. Ruscheinski is going to be playing his D+2 in the BCHL. Laughable pick.
