Crazy that the person hand-picked by David Poile is just as bad as developing young players as Poile was.
Please announce Stastney returning soon now. Or stockpile that $2.5 mil to get a 2C. Either is fine.
Fabbs is awful, but that’s a terrible job by management. Probably could have got a half decent pick just last season for him before our d core became crowded and he got limited playing time.
I love losing quality players for absolutely nothing…
Imagine being a first round pick and being drafted by Nashville… Like a less than 50% chance that you will develop in a yellow sweater.
If this is what gets the boys going, it’s worth it in my opinion.
I do wonder if Trotz got *any* offers for him
CBJ fan coming in peace. What kind of player is Fabbro? I was always under the impression he was a bottom pair two-way but defensive leaning d-man that can play second pair in a pinch. Gudbranson is hurt for us so if that is his role he could slide right you.
Sorry to hear your management can’t develop players either, I know a thing or two about that here in Cbus ugh.
I think at a certain point there needs to be some shakeups in scouting/development if the next wave of first round picks (wood, kemell, molendyk, svechkov, surin) doesn’t pan out in the NHL for the preds. It’s unlikely that they all bust but they had too many in the last 5 years and is the reason why we don’t have any homegrown players currently between ages 22-27 as top 6 f/top 4 d
I wish we could have traded him like two years ago when his ceiling looked higher and his value would have been up. But after scratching him so often you’re not gonna get like anything in the market
We can complain that it’s another first round pick that we have missed on, but I’m looking at is as 2.5 million off our payroll and it now leaves a spot open for one of our young’ns to step up for us.
Sucks but he was drafted 8 years ago now. There’s a list of late first round defensemen who don’t pan out that’s a mile long.
It’s not like this is Tolvanen or that they gave him up when he was still an actual prospect
He’s the kind of guy that stays behind and signs a shit ton of pucks for the mystery pucks. You’re bound to get one if CBJ does them 😂
