Don't know the source at all. Just thought it was worth sharing:
I had Lamoureux going to Montreal in my moch draft.

Agree. You like the kid, you have the opportunity to go get him, you do it. No hesitation. I like what they're doing. They have a plan and they're executing it. You don't burn the thing to the ground, acquire a ton of picks and spend all this money on scouting to not trust them. This isn't Chayka taking a guy at 5 with average measurables that's rated at 10ish. The guys they moved up for are freaks that teams are buzzing around.I've come to the conclusion on D that you either go big and toolsy or for the guys scoring buckets of points. The ones inbetween don't ever seem to amount to much and are replaceable via FA.
Hope for Chara, settle for McNabb with Lamoureaux. Like POJ, he seems like a brilliant teammate. Never a bad thing to spend a pick on a kid like this.
I really hope this kid fills out his frame and turns into a top 4 D-man. 6'7 athletic kids like this do not grow on trees.
Wasn't there a funny one about Burke and Brian Murray working a deal and when they walked up to each other it was a few words and they turned and walked away with the deal toasted. Something about the pick and I think Burke said, no deal we are taking the player you want. Might have been Kadri but in reality my memory isn't that good. NhL really needs behind tye scenes programming, we all love to see this stuff.I like hearing these stories of scout tabkes from other clubs slamming the desk in frustration when we take “their guy”.

If u want to go down some rabbit holes. Check this series out.Good one. My memory had this elaborate walkup and almost a square off. It was way better in my mind!!! Would love to see the video go from Coyotes selection to Habs slamming table. That stuff sells and the NHL ignores. It. Heck Burke could probably make a series a year in the past

Absolutely! The series the Coyotes released (only saw 2 parts) is fantastic for fans. Why the NHL does not do more of that I dont understand.Good one.
