Fred65 Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 Sad to see this story http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=454823 Louis LeBlanc a first round pick by Mtl traded for a 5th round pick to Anaheim. Mtl convinced this kid to give up his full scholarship at Harvard to turn Pro. Now he's looking forward to likely a career in the AHL on minimum wage. What a terrible shame...he could have finished a terrific education and maybe set for life, now ...not so much. Like every pro league it's a meat market Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Moody Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 I'm not too worried about people like this. Someone who has the drive and intelligence to make it to Harvard in the first place will overcome the obstacles and make more out of himself than just a "career AHLer", methinks. He will be fine. Sad story, but he will rebound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
