Warhippy Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 But...players from the AJHL don't become solid hockey players and Makar shouldn't go 4th overall and...or so I was told and kept hearing Man I love this kid, he is such a stud of a player and I wanted him so bad. Certainly not complaining with our pick in that draft though either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The trade with OTT has been a part of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fanuck Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 Still take EP40 in a re-draft any day...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coconuts Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 Still happy with how things worked out for us but man, Colorado has a bright future. Brighter still thanks to Ottawa being Ottawa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DADDYROCK Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Ya we got one of those,his name is ADAM GAUDETTE and he is a keeper. As in, this fine young centerman has a great work ethic and tries to get better each and every game and soon he will show it is players of his kind that help win Championships.

I think if he was there we might not have Pete. However the thought of having Hughes and Makar on one team is just filthy. OOOH so many scenarios if we didn't have Pete we might have finished in the devils spot. Damn you hockey gods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shiznak Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Lost in all this, is he’s leading the Minutemen to its first ever National Championship and then probably suiting up for the Avalanche for game 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darius Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 I thought I heard the Sportsnet guys say that he could potentially join Colorado during their series with Calgary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Lock Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Makar and Hughes may both very well represent a new breed of defensemen in the NHL and I'm proud to say that we have one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They both have wonderful skating strides, top speed. Hughes maybe an edge in agility? Both were considered top 5 prospects in the world not yet in the NHL just over a month ago. #1 & #2 I think? So we could be splitting hairs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
