I mean, these aren't even close in my opinion...

Left is good, right was called off?

Seems like there is actually contact with the goalie on that one

As I said earlier, pretenders...

To be fair, this looks very similar to the David Pastrnak situation where he was selected late in the 1st round several years ago.

Man, that's very good use of the wayback machine. Didn't Glen Sather say that a fire hydrant could score 50 goals playing next to Wayne Gretzky?

and he was right. I admit I had to look up his name as he was so insignificant I just remember Gretz making plugs into goal scorers. Hell players like Pavel gave Gino 16 goals... Gretz made many more careers than that for people

The exception of course being Jari Kurri who was a heck of a player - Yes, Jari benefitted playing on Wayne's line, but he would have put up good numbers even without Wayne. Hyman has turned himself into a very good player, but I don't think he's in the same league as Kurri.

Wow.
If it's not a lottery pick, it's a big miss

They should have an army built around McDavid by now. Edmonton kept pretty much all their picks and they’ve graduated exactly one good player into the lineup.
