I had him ranked top 5, oilers fans are gonna cry in 3-4 years from now when Dobson is fully developped...

Not only did the Oil f*** up taking Bouchtard over Dobson.. they cost me a thousand dollars on mise en jeu
How did you even open a 1000 dollar bet on mise o jeu? The most it would let me bet was 100.
They were giving me 4+ on Kotkaniemi to Montreal but I'm going to do the run around it would have taken to place the bet for 100 bucks.

Watch the backlash now on how we should’ve drafted him......but tomorrow, when Wahlstrom scores a few, it’ll be him, then the next day, when Boqvist has 4pts, it’ll be him.......etc, etc, etc......

It was a ten dollar bet that would have earned me a thousand. I had a combo bet of all the highest returns so it was like Kotkaniemi to Montreal. Hayton ahead of Veleno. Things like that that were paying out high before the draft but anyone with knowledge would know was gonna happen. gambled on Boqvist ahead of wahlstrom.

I saw the first 2 periods. Primeau had it a bit rough in the first though 2 of those goals weren't his fault. Seemed to be a bit better in the 2nd.
Olofsson made a few nice passes but seemed to lack intensity.
We need to lose for Hughes. He'd be a great start in the right direction. Him, Kotka and Poehling up the middle would be very nice.
We can say that for every player in the draft since not 1 has a played an NHL game......Zadina must prove to the Detroit fan base......Tkachuk must prove to the Ottawa fan base.....Hughes must prove to the Vancouver fan base.......Kaut must prove to the Colorado fan base......etc etc etc

Wasn't big on Dobson like some, but I still had him ahead of Bouchard. Who the hell knows, it's not out of the realm of possibility that Bouchard ends up having the better career. Stranger things have happened.

Primeau wasn't sharp in the first. The second goal wasn't his fault. However, from the second and after, he was better. He made a few key saves that would have allowed Sweden to run away with it yesterday.
As for Olofsson, nothing flashy. But he was effective. His mandate was mainly to counter Jack Hughes. He did a good job, but the kid is too good to be contained for 60 minutes. He did pick up an assist on Sweden's 4th goal, though. He was real good in OT, also.

Thanks for the info guys. I know one-off games like these don't mean much in the grand scheme, but you still always hope your guys are doing well. Too bad for Primeau. Hopefully Olofsson can secure a top 6 C role, and Primeau the starter.

Poehling not playing so far recovering from a minor surgury (tonsillitis)... Ylonen and Kotka are lock to make the team so they decided to rest them and test some other kids...
Olofsson is doing well defensively but offensively he is ok, no more no less...

Olofsson plays such a pro ready game already that I hope his coach in Sweden let's him explore his offense more.
