And he mocked me for saying it was a terrible pick of a big guy who couldnt skate and didnt have enough skill to be a first rounder and i wouldnt take him before the third round.
So.i guess predicting the pick doesnt make you 100% right either.
He also said Michael Mcleod was a top 3 talent.
To be fair every scout who ever lived makes many of these mistakes. He also made statements that were a little over zealous more as an over reaction to the ocean of asinine comments directed towards him.
The best scouts in the world have opposing view points on many prospects. They often unanimously agree on their assessment of skill sets but developmental projection and pro translatability are the points of contention.
I am not saying that Grant is or is not a good scout but I think that his name has been unfairly smeared on this board.
