[Verbal Kint]

I LOL'd when Scotty Glennie showed up on the video

That draft still irks me to this day.

.....Dammit, Nieuwy.

[oconnor9sean]

Who'd we pick over Teuvo Teravainen? Faksa?

Edit: Just looked, it gets worse... We picked Faksa over Teravainen, Hertl, Ceci and Maatta...

The saddest part about watching it is realizing the Stars haven't even been in the playoffs since HD television became a thing.

I can't really be angry at a 13 pick selection, It's the scouts fault for sure, but it was not like all those four didn't have some question marks on them at the time of the draft. Faksa himself were pretty hyped.

There's this strange valley that exists in terms of video quality over time. For the old stuff, there's actually pretty decent footage since people transferred it off of VHS tapes and then uploaded. But when you get into the mid 2000s it coincided with the advent of streaming internet video. Everyone thought it was amazing at the time because it wasn't static text and images, but now it looks just laughably terrible. And because it at least exists, no one's bothered to go back and put up better versions. Then as we get closer to the present there's been about a 300 pixel jump every couple of years.

Hertl has Jumbo Joe, Ceci has Erik Karlsson in front of him, TT hasn't played in the NHL yet, and Maatta has been meh on that Pens team.

Don't judge yet.

Somewhat agree on the others, but Maatta has been awesome on the Pens blueline. Has been their best Dman as a rookie and shutting down some of the best lines, all while still producing offense. They would've been lost there without Maatta when most of their D-core went out.
Also he played awesome in Sochi! [Olympic medallist dman is pretty good]
