Boston... why do you keep making such weird picks?
I had him 81 on my list - not that my list actually means anything, but a little early for Frederic, I'd say.

Fire Sweeney and Neely
We not only need to fire Neely and Sweeney but also our entire scouting department. What a ****ing joke.

Trent Frederic is of those classic late first round names that never amount to anything. Like Philippe Paradis or Zach Phillips.
Just one of those names that screams nobody. Trent Frederic. More like Bent Mehderic.
Listen, I'm not a scientist. But this is a wasted pick.

Yup, over and over dissapointed picks.
Take McKenzies bpa and this team would be better off.

DraftBuzz rated #34 and had an idea he would go top 30.
Trent Frederic is a better player than people gave him credit for being both before and now as a first round pick.

If he can't skate he will struggle to even find success in NCAA or AHL.
We waited four hours for this pick.

Sweeney makes some silly selections. You could trade back, pick up an asset, and still pick this kid late in the 2nd or 3rd. Makes no sense.
While a bit of a stretch I don't think this pick is as bad as last year. Last year they basically had Barzal and Connor sitting on a silver platter for themselves and passed on both. At 29 it wasn't really a case yeah they should have picked "player X"

What teams have you contacted that were wanting to trade picks with and give us assets. Please provide your insider information and perhaps HF can even give you your own verified tag

I don't mind picking a guy early and taking a risk but i legitemately don't get it... Like I don't understand why you could look at Frederik and think he could be a better player than Girard or Abramov or Clague or Benson??
Whatever, I thought lasy year was just an outlier for Sweeney but maybe he just isn't a very good GM w the draft haha

Of course that's not as bad as last year, but it's still the same "concept" of taking player ranked lower because they have lower upside. Going with low upisde pick doesn't give you "steal" like Krejci, Bergeron, Subban, Keith, etc. It can give you steal like Shaw, but from time to time it's fun to swing for a Subban type, no?
