[bookjones]

Damn skippy. :icon-smile:</p>

Thanks to Jarmo Kekalainen's boss ass scouting and strong input in OTT picking him (and later Havlat too!). Thanks Jarmo!  :romance-heartbeating:</p>

Pfft, keep dreaming. That's not how the 50th Anniversary Dream Draft works smartass! You don't even know what players and their positions are for Picks 1-10 yet as they reveal one daily. At 30 picks it can hardly be viewed as a one shot team roster. Now step off and leave me and my Hossa uber-love fangurrling alone! </p>

Loved watching him in Portland, and I love him as a hawk.  The indianhead sweater befits him.</p>

3rd liner in a "dream draft", but #1 in my heart.</p>

I didn't start actively following him until his rookie season with OTT although I knew vaguely about the scorching hot Portland Winter Hawks season and Memorial Cup win. And it's been all   :romance-heartbeating: LOVE :romance-heartbeating: and support ever since. The tough fangurl times were obviously the Berard eye injury and naturally after OTT fucked him over with the trade to the Thrashers---watching him during prime career years along with other talent in ATL die a slow hockey death was rough until he emerged as a free agent years later and was able to control his own destiny (after ATL traded him to PIT for the SC playoffs push of course). </p>

That Winterhawks team was unreal:  Andrew Ference, Marian Hossa, Jason Labarbera (who was the Backup. Belecki was the starter but I don't think cracked the NHL), Brent Morrow, And let's not forget Matt Walker.  And of course, Portland in that tournament lit up Luongo for Val-d'Or 7-4. </p>

not going to happen. He didn't play for the Leafs. </p>

 

[Maiden]

Paul Reinhart?  Gary Roberts?  really?</p>

 

[WiHawksFan]

Hossa aggravated his back and might mis the rest of the preseason. I get the feeling this will be a common occurrence for him this year.</p>

 

[Forklift]

Is it wrong that I think the best #1 overall pick of all time was Erik Johnson by the Blues?</p>
