Seravalli corroborating this as well. I actually quite like Ian Mitchell, atleast the Bruins didnt walk away empty handed


Mitchell's got some confidence issues and starts scrambling around his own zone once he gets knocked off his game, definitely talent there though. He's at his best when he's getting involved in the cycle in the O-zone. Bowman didn't do him any favors when he basically was touting him as the savior of the Hawks' blueline and threw him straight into the NHL

As so far majority of moves are either dumps or cap exchanges

I mean he’s on an ELC, couldn’t they just sit him and all it’d cost them would be a contract spot?

TSN: At the combine it was the NHL executives and scouts doing the headhunting. You spoke to 23 teams. What was the toughest question?

Reinbacher: It's World War II and you're the captain of a boat and you have to bomb an enemy boat, but teammates are swimming in the ocean. I said, 'No, I wouldn't do it because I want to save my teammates.' I'm like, 'Look, guys, I don't do it because they are my teammates so I wouldn't kill my teammates.' They were like, 'You have to do it. It's an order.' I was like, 'No, I won't do it.' So, it was kind of not the best thing to talk about.


Bro these combine questions are getting out of hand

That's a terrible question by someone who thinks they are smarter than they are. In an actual war there may be times when sacrificing people is justified. Drawing an analogy to a kid's loyalty to his teammates in a sport is awful for multiple reasons no matter what the team's preferred answer of the team was. You're basically setting up a 17 or 18 year old kid to fail trying to negotiate that scenario against what he perceives is your expectation as a sports team in his draft interview.

You might learn something useful if you took their first answer without any further prompting or follow-up and moved on. After that, you're just coaching him to give you an answer and asking him to weigh his quickly arrived at opinion vs what you're asking from him one way or another. It's a draft interview, not a deep dive psych evaluation. No matter what answer you want him to give, you're setting him up to lie to you to move on on to the next question when you start putting your finger on the scale to change his answer.

Mailloux and Miller are nowhere near similar cases, Mailloux did something dumb by taking a non-consensual picture during a consensual encounter while Miller bullied a disabled African-American kid, you can’t tell me that these 2 are similar in severity

Not attempting to debate that as only the poor people involved know the "severity" they felt.
Both players should have been bypassed by the fine up-standing NHL "Management Professionals".

Personally I think what Miller did was worse, but Mailloux literally has a criminal record because of his dumb decision, and asked not to be drafted
