On the topic of scouts, why do we only have two leagues in which we have three scouts ? Is it a huge coincidence that since they hired three scouts for the WHL and the states we've had a higher success rate ? Ever since they hired two more scouts for the WHL in 2016, they've drafted Brook, Fleury, Fonstad and Stapley and they've drafted Poehling, Primeau and Harris in the states... Like, f***ing employ more scouts you're a multi million dollar franchise.
To top it all off they have scouts splitting duties in the east and only two dedicated OHL scouts... thats for the biggest talent pipeline in the world... This team is driving me insane.
Rockstrom is also a big problem for me. Guy has hit twice in his 40 year career... Maybe he's just not that good ? Lundqvist and Lidstrom are HOF players, sure, but his success rate is absolutely horrible... The only other things he has to show for are Jonnson, Hagelin, DLR, Fast and Sundstrom. I mean, sure, keep him if you want, but hire someone else, I'm happy they did.
