I haven't watched much of the Lightning (and even less juniors :P ); what's Drouin's game like?

Sutter was actually my #1 choice for coach; however, Julien and a couple others were also up there. I talked with Mikey, because I wanted a 2nd opinion on who would mesh well, and he recommended Julien. I was hoping for a more aggressive possession team, similar to Sutter's LA Kings; however, I do think that Julien & the Bruins style of defense will work well, especially considering he knows how to use Bergeron & Chara really well.

And it sounds like Drouin is... like Stamkos or Tavares? Or maybe Kovalev in his slickness? Or "hot"... Carcillo? :P

I doubt he'll be a regular in the lineup at this level.

He'd have gone #1 this year if he was eligible, and would be playing this season... Certainly, I don't expect him to dominate the way that he most certainly will. But if he is half as good as Crosby as an 18 year old, then he will be an excellent addition to my team.

Not to mention, one can never underestimate the excitement and energy that having a young superstar on your team as he finds his stride will bring. Mackinnon brought to this Avs. Some of the things he did, he made the whole team believe it could do anything...

If this was a multi year thing, I would have been all over that pick rounds ago, but considering it's only one year, no thanks.

I'm surprised he was even eligible since he hasn't even been drafted yet.

I checked the board at 3 and thought I'd be good for a quick run and a stop off for dinner.
