Thread: Surprise at number five
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NHLfan10506</b></div><div>All of these stories have come from one group of people…same click of parents in California. Yet, on every other team he has played on, none of this seems to have happened.

Now people want to compare him to Mitchell Miller and say he should never be able to play hockey again. Some draft observers are trying to claim that he is on NHL teams’ “do not draft” lists, yet freely admit that they haven’t actually heard scouts or GMs ever say that. But the US NTDP has brought one player from outside their program to the U-18s. They do their homework. And one of the most respected coaches in all of NCAA has vouched for him (going so far as to attend some Tri-City events to let it be known).

Everyone makes mistakes, especially when they are children. Some learn from their mistakes by taking ownership of them, make amends. Others hide from accountability, point blame at others. I believe the former is better measure of character.

You can believe what you want.</div></div>

I wish people were more forgiving. None of us really know what the kid is like, but he shouldn't have to pay his entire life for something he did at 15. People are way too quick to try and destroy peoples lives. Teams will do their due dilligence to see if there are any character issues to sort out. I think that if your teams drafts him you should be comfortable that you got a good player.

Thread: Moving On From Bahl
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TyeZerker</b></div><div>You went from inexperience dcore to inexperience dcore. Also congratz on making the devils smaller and less physical. man ppl are really clueless in this, tell me have all that speed worked for them the last two years? tell me how they cant handle pressure. clarke and that russian plz they arent good, why not move off them? but hey you love being pushed around eh. SPEED IS NOT EVERYTHING CLOWN</div></div>

Clown? Bahl blows! Every thread you comment on is completely wrong! Every damn one. Pettersson is a top pair d man in Pittsburgh. Hatakka was far better in 12 games than Bahl in most of them. Less physical, what did Bahl do this year that was physical, nothing! Who said anything about speed? It's skill, something Bahl continues not to show. You're against swapping a 6'6 230 guy who plays like he's 5'8 175 for a first pair d man earning sub $5M. Great job, if we follow you it'll be another 10 yrs. before we compete.

@Whale nice idea, gotta get D better, Luke's a couple away from being the guy we need
