The "I Told You So" Thread

[Robin Hood]

As the title goes - list anything you think you were right on and the rest of BBKL called you crazy. Or heck just a good call.

-Draft picks in late rounds (not every guy you've ever picked, a late round pick that made it to the NHL)
-Trades people thought you got crushed in
-Offers people called terrible that weren't (Talk in KapG's thread inspired this haha)
etc.

One of my best draft picks ever - Radko Gudas. Taken 134th overall: http://bbkl.ca/viewtopic.php?f=84&t=11& ... +gudas#p31

I get crushed in every trade according to 90% of the bbkl

It's a great pick, but means a lot more if you hold them while they develop IMO.

Yup - I don't have the patience for that though haha

Everyone called me an idiot when I traded Peter Mueller for Brooks Laich + in 09, went from a 30 point guy to a 50 with great h2h stats that year. I remember it was multiple pages of me being called an idiot lol.

Most of my best calls help other people. I called Andrew MacDonald and talked nick into grabbing him. He has been one of the best bargains in the nhl over the last 3 years at 550,000.

HELLOOOO MINNESOTA!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WELCOME TO THE 2011 BBKL ENTRY DRAFT!

I want to start off by thanking fans in Minnesota for coming out today.

Second, I want to congratulate Scott Smith and the the New Jersey Devils on their Back-to-Back Championships!

I also want to thank our fans back in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania who are anxiously awaiting to see who will become a Penguin on this historic day.

I want to thank our Scouting Staff for doing a tremendous job in doing all the dirty work to find the next great Penguin.

I want to thank Mario Lemieux who is in the banner below for being a tremendous, supportive owner in the quest of the Penguins franchise to return to glory.

And now, without further ado. With the historic 1st selection of the 2011 BBKL Entry Draft, the Pittsburgh Penguins are proud to select RYAN JEREMY NOEL NUGENT-HOPKINS

hahahahah

Irrelevant to the trade.
Phil has 96 points in his last 82 games; How's Loui?

[shooker]

lol it isn't at all irrelevant to that trade. If they don't move kessel, they don't land Seidenberg, Horton or Campbell in trades. Seids was more important in that cup run then anyone could have imagined. So not directly but indirectly that trade was everything for that team. Without it no cup.

Derailing this thread now but noticing a trend with the Bruins. Jumbo, Kessel and Now Seguin all gone before their primes. Boston can't seem to manage high end talent.
