Nothing like someone 5'8", who's listed at 159 lbs. Which probably
means 145.

Pierre is still a douchebag.

I think anyone of us in this NG could take this guy in a fight.

He's tiny. Try watching him skate in a game, he stands out because
he's so damn small. For some reason, he looks smaller out on the ice
than what he's listed. Smaller than Gionta. Whatever.

What I do like about him, apparently, is that he thinks about offense
"too much," and is also said to be extremely creative with the puck.
Two things this club doesn't have. So, there's that.

Signed,

Yep. I'd still have preferred we pick up that defenseman from Colonia.

At least they didn't pick the goaltender. The TSN asshats basically
had Marty retired. He's going to play until he's 45 if he holds up.

Sounds like the person who found your wallet was Erik Rasmussen
himself.

Funny thing part 2 - they're already overlisting a probably overlisted
player. This from this mornings Ledger:

Tedenby is a speedy 5-10, 176-pounder rated by the NHL's Central
Scouting Bureau as the third-best European prospect.

Last night, when they drafted him, he was listed as 5' 8", 159.
lbs.
