@thegoldenmuzzy Because the draft “experts” are trying to build a narrative around the draft that makes fans of the teams in the top 4 happy. Malhotra in VAN? Done. SJ getting a #1 D? Done. Chi getting the guy who was neck and neck with McKenna for most of the year falling to them at 4? Done.
@thegoldenmuzzy@LMTake_@TLNdc I’d be fine with him as the 7th guy over Benoit and especially Myers. But if he’s getting as much ice time as he was last year, Leafs are trouble again. He’s a very likable guy and can be serviceable. But he’s just not consistent enough to trust with every game minutes.
@TheTylerKasch Add “giving speeches” to things that Carter Hart is barely capable of doing properly. Looked like he had huffed a tube of compressed air duster minutes before.
@LeafsfanEst1991 Now do the same exercise but with defenseman and centers now that he’s playing on the second line. He’s not playing against:
Chara, McAvoy, Hedman, Forsling, Barkov, Bergeron, Cirelli, etc.
He’s playing great, no doubt. But he’s in a different role now.
@2MINIHULK Heads up, if you read the article one of the “scouts” Pronman allegedly talked to has Albert Smits tied with Reid going 1st overall to Toronto. Seems kinda bizarre that Smits wouldn’t be in the convo at 2 if he’s worth the convo at 1, no?
Jk Pronman sucks.
@skzbrini It’s a combination of A. Toronto winning 1 so there has to be controversy in the pick and 2. Three big market teams are in the top five. Gotta make sure that VAN, CHI & NYR fans keep clicking those mocks and are happy when Stenberg (who is 1b remember) falls to Chi at 4.
@hockeyFanGOAT@coreypronman@TheAthleticNHL Haha you actually believe he’s a real person? Cuz I sure as shit believe Pronman is 1000% making this shit up. The minute the Leafs won the lottery it went from a 2 horse race to muddy waters, all for clicks.
@darrenrovell I don’t see how it’s predatory. When I think of predatory I think of payday loans and rent to own furniture. And I’m frankly surprised it doesn’t include a clause about sponsorships!
@carrothjslv3@coreypronman@TheAthleticNHL Haha or Pronman just straight up is engagement farming at this point. It makes zero logical sense for Smits to be in the convo at 1 and not at 2. It’s BS like this that makes me miss Bob McKenzie’s list. You could actually trust those.
@joshuaS_10@coreypronman@TheAthleticNHL It’s as if Pronman doesn’t know wtf he’s talking about, sees Toronto has the 1st , VAN has 3rd, Chi has 4th and NYR have 5th. Isn’t it funny how 1 went from a 2 man race to a 4 man race? Van gets the coaches son. And chi gets the #2 guy. It’s allllll for clicks. No shame for him
