Why are you asking that pigdog what rhey think of anaheim draft? The attention-seeking lying ass scum doesnt know shot about hockey. Literally not a single fucking thing. Nothing bad dramatic ignorant takes. Hell the fuck no.
you know, I wasn't gonna answer this, I was just gonna delete it, but fuck it I might as well.
on this website, tumblr, there are things called "friends". don't know if you've heard of them? "friends" are people who you like and who like you. generally you follow each other. you interact with each other's content a lot. might root for different teams but we can still appreciate each other's vibes.
so when a friend gets second overall in the draft lottery for their favorite team, the proper response, at least imo, is to ask them what they think of the projected 2oa. maybe they haven't seen fantilli, haven't watched the clips. hell, I don't know much about him myself.
for what it's worth, from what I've heard I expect fantilli to be a massive add to the ducks (in 24-25, as umich basically confirmed he's staying another year), and with a stronger defense, the ducks have a genuine shot at being contenders by that point. probably wildcard contenders, as far as things go. they're still stacking on draft picks that will still (probably) need to develop, and there's a lot of question marks, especially because vegas, edmonton, and seattle are all super strong teams with (imo) little chance of falling off soon and the kings are the kings (for better and for worse). canucks should be able to wildcard contend going forward as long as they can maneuver the 24-25 resigning frenzy. flames are in a massive implosion and hopefully their new coach can fix them. san jose's meier trade cemented them as now going to rebuild so take them out for another 3-5 years or so, imo. so the conference will be tough and i wouldn't expect immediate success when fantilli joins, but i can see them in 2, 3, 4 years being a strong team.
i'm not gonna speculate on fantilli lines (zegras-fantilli-terry?) because i'm a devils fan and i have learned that lines don't mean SHIT, but fantilli will be a top6 power center barring some massive breakdown or rangers-style development. i expect that to push zegras to wing full time and for the coach to cook with fantilli 1C mctavish 2C, of course barring trades and whatever else have you.
so yeah! the ducks'll be fun! looking forward to that.
so anyways, that's what you do when someone's favorite team gets the 2oa pick! be happy for them. not rage and seethe and whine and blast other people's inboxes insulting their friends while hiding under anonymity, because you can't cope with other people's happiness.
look man, just get some help. it'll be good for you. beat up a pillow or something.
