Just another reason Millbury should be fvcking banned for life I was thinking "DiPietro is bad , then again someone took Raffi Torres at 5th" then I realised that was also an islanders pick 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also got robbed on deals for Bertuzzi and Chara right around that time as well. I remember seeing something where if he had just not traded anyone and taken the top ranked player at their draft position (Heatley or Gaborik over DiPietro for example) they would have been a juggernaut. Edit: He included a top pick with Chara in the Yashin deal which turned out to be Spezza. Basically, he should have had a young core of Luongo, Chara, Bertuzzi, Spezza, Jokinen and one of Heatley/Gaborik.

I think of this every time he's on my tv talking about a GM or coach making a bad decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
