I'd still pick him and let him hold out. Take the #5 pick next year if you can't cash out on him to 1 of those 2 teams. We don't absolutely need the asset right now, that's a good part of having a lot of depth. I would not give a damn what you would like for your son, as he is not heading to the Q anyway. And I also know that you do not believe anything coming of Couturier's mouth and I happen to not give a damn about it either. The fact is that this afternoon, in his radio interview, Couturier mentioned that things are changing in Bathurst: out of over 70 players interviewed for the draft, according to him, NONE said they would not come to Bathurst. Now I will let you think whatever you want about Bathurst. I do not give a damn as long as the selected players show up. Who cares anyway about the NovaScotian JB condescendance? You are aware there are scouting services who have Bowers lower than Morand right? If the Titan draft Morand at #2 don't assume it's because they chickened out on Bowers. Some scouts think Morand is the better player. The difference between Comtois, Morand and Bowers is mainly in play-style, in terms of who's better, scouts are split.

I recall awhile ago it was talk of top 2 - Honestly there are several teams that have Morand ahead of Comtois and Bowers. That being said I agree with the previous post that they are different players so it's what type of player you're looking for. I don't think overall you can really go wrong with any of the three personally.

He thinks the same as everyone else does, the titan should have been moved years ago. It's the shithole of the league and that needs to change. The sad thing is he ACTUALLY believes things have only got better there over time, despite attendance going from 3000+ to 2500+ to 2000+ to 1500+ to 3 figures. He was preaching the exact same 'it's better now then it's ever been' speech the entire time without even once admitting that they need to start doing business differently. How can you say it's better when you have Pouliot as a coach? His stint with BC was a complete mess. I would NEVER send my kid to be coached by him.

Today is the big day. We will soon see where the chips fall for the first four picks.Barring any trades, the Eagles should get 2 good players at #4 and 6. There has been strong speculation that the Sea Dogs are trying to maneuver themselves to get Shane Bower. IMO, if Bowers falls to #4, the Eagles should consider making a trade. A trade with the Sea Dogs could bring in 2 players to fill the holes and add 2 more draft picks in the first 10,setting up the future of this team. Be real nice if we come out of the draft with the holes filled and 3 picks in the top 10. We'll have to wait and see.

I prefer to keep 4 and 6.
The chance of nabbing another Dubois and and watching them for the next few years is what I prefer. That may change at Christmas but for now I am making the picks.

You guys might be the one team that asks SJ for future picks as well as current, to load up your cupboard for after this window.

Guys go to the QMHJL Draft thread in QMJHL Discussions. There is a link posted there and I am watching it now testing it out. Seems to work well

I would recommend not posting links on the board so that the streams don't get blocked (there is already a DMCA complaint against the site that was posted). We can share streams via PM.

I definitely want to see us make pick #4, but I'd be open to dangling #6 for a solid 18-19 year old top 6 forward.. thats our one glaring issue going in to next season, we
Svechnikov - Bishop - Lazarev Dubois - x - Ranger
Hope Bathurst doesn't do anything crazy and Bowers falls in to our lap..
