His AHL performance, is not what it once was. This kid looked pretty good when we drafted him, sucks that he didn't develop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw him with his jr team here in Victoria. Kid looked studly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N4ZZY Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Yeah. I wonder what happens to Hunter. He seemed very promising early on. And then just fell off the map. Injuries? Confidence issues? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grabner actually put up 30+ goals in the NHL in two seasons. 20 or more goals in three other seasons. For a 14th overall pick, he turned out as well as can be expected. Good thing Gillis traded him for Keith Ballard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trebreh Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 I remember being so hyped about this pick. I was like "yee we got the Calgary boy flems fans wanted" then fast forward to when we traded him for Granlund i remember cowgary fans saying they got a steal and Granny wouldn't stick in the nhl lol.
