Lol. You did the exact thing you’re criticizing. Jumping in from behind. But boys will be boys I suppose.
I like Verhoeff’s size, poise and his ability to get shots through bodies. Plus he’s just a good kid that is well spoken and seems like he has his shit together. Something you probably don’t fully understand.
Lol… I never jumped in from behind… I intercepted him face to face. The whole concept has you confused I guess… I mean you sympathize with the back jumper. Now just try and picture this… 2 guys in a fight… someone bursts out of the crowd and rushes in on your friend’s blindside… you have 2 seconds… do you drop him or have words with him? I drop him. You have words with him.
What are you going to sort out with a guy who is running at your friend in 2 seconds? He’s not even going to hear what you say… this is what I mean about you just imagining what a brawl is like. Nothing you say indicates any kind of reality in a situation like that. Stop pretending. It’s getting awkward.
I’ve had plenty my friend, both on and off the ice. A sucker punch is a sucker punch. It’s not like you went to restrain him. The fact that it was an innocent Drummer just makes the act more disgusting.
Oh I restrained him alright… anchored him flat on his ass and no one should feel sorry since he was jumping in(but you).
You sound like the last guy I would want watching my back. If someone rushes you from behind while you’re engaged in a fight, LM is going to have a discussion with him. Gonna meet somewhere for a gentlemen’s fight later… Not going to hit the back jumper because that would be unfair.
I’m glad you brought up this ridiculous position you took. No one can accuse me bringing up people’s embarrassing past arguments they made, like this one of yours. 😉
Now back to hockey… Did you take a liking to Verhoeff because he failed to protect a team mates back and you thought that was honorable? I hope not. We had enough of that over the years. The Load Management model. hahaha
Let’s face it, anyone who sucker punches a Drummer isn’t right in the head. Hope all is well my friend. Nice to see you around.
Hilarious. I thought about this discussion not even a week ago. I still cant get over a guy who talks like he has street fighting experience but thinks punching someone who is running up behind your friends back while he’s engaged in a fight as “sucker punching”. Or you saying the honorable thing to do is make arrangements with him to step aside and have our own 1 on 1. Like thats going to happen in the 2 seconds you have to intercept.
In typical drummer fashion, he was jumping in on a 1 on 1 fight that was actually off to the side. Having no experience in real life fights you contradict yourself and support the idiot who got his ass dumped on the floor for being a back jumping coward. “don’t sucker punch the back jumping coward!!”… lol. Who demands respect for that shit besides you…
Everything you said that day comes off as someone who is imagining what it would be like in a big spontaneous brawl or there wouldnt have been issue with it at all.
That’s fine. Either way your letting complete strangers form your opinion. I’ll take Verhoeff based on my opinion that he will provide exactly what this team needs going forward.
I am a bit leery on taking a highly touted American out west based on recent events. I want a guy that wants to be here and wants to stay. I also see that in Verhoeff.
Quite honestly, it’s flattering that you don’t give me credit that you do scouts. Mostly because you know absolutely jack squat and I don’t need affirmation from ignorant people.
Hope all is well buddy and the fishing is great.
I was polite… no need to be a cunt. You kind of made it look like you are upset you didnt get your affirmation.
I have not been to any of his games, no.
Hundreds of scouts have. Best I can do is look at their opinions of him and watch some film myself.
Sorry, I don’t give you the credit I do for scouts. I will remember to pay you credit if he turns out to be the best D in the draft and worthy of the 3rd. I think Reid is the more likely candidate for that.
Reid.
Verhoeff is too risky at 3… red flags on decision making. Called a turn over machine by many scouts. If everything were to come together for him… he may be one hell of a player but he is no clear top 3 pick.
Malholtra… not a top 3 pick either. With Stenberg you are looking at top line winger. With Reid you are looking at top pairing D. I feel they hit that ceiling much more likely than Malholtra hitting top line C.
First time we pick top 3 in almost 30 years and there’s a feeling that they are going to reach back from there with some poorly timed tunnel vision.
Things are alright. Got quite sick back in February, had meningitis and Ecole. Lucky to still be here.
How are things with youI had spinal meningitis when I was a kid. The spinal tap was no fun that was for sure. They messed the first one up and had to redo it.

Height 6.03 — Weight 200EP’s consolidated has him at 41 which is happens to be where the Canucks are with their second pick in that round.
If you want a tenacious physical checker of the same size, Gleb Pugachyov is supposed to be the guy. Out of Russia though… think a bigger harder hitting Kiefer Sherwood.
You want a even bigger checker who is known for his very solid D game… Adam Andersson. This guy hits everything that moves at 6’4″… also likes net front presence…
Manny sat Lekkerimaki for most of the final. He has no problem scratching young players.
No problems when it’s time to win. That also teaches players to be a complete player & no favourites. Play the right way or somebody else gets the opportunity.
Terrible draft pick. I hope the days of drafting a scrawny one dimensional shooter in the 1st round are long over. They talked ceiling at the time… players like him have too many limits to be a home run realistically. Boeser was drafted for his shot… but is bigger and was picked in the back of the 1st round. Not boasting about him… just that they can fill holes with better later in the draft.
I really hope things have changed with the hidden gem fantasies they have with the pussies they draft. Hidden gems are a thing… but limit yourself to a player profile that excludes skinny flakes like lekker unless it’s a undeniable talent that can’t be passed on.
