Must be tough for these frenchie kids to be drafted by the Habs. They are expected to be the next Guy LaFleur. I remember watching the draft when they selected this kid. Like most people, I was astonished that they decided to pick this kid who was basically a "nobody" when it comes to available kids in the spot he was taken. He was probably, at best a 3rd rounder, but was taken with the 18th overall pick.
 
Athletic Bilbao only gets Basque players. Chivas de Guadalajara only get Mexican born players.
 
Be more informative if you told us this BEFORE he flopped. Not after.

Usually when a #1 draft pick is traded within 5 years it means he's officially a flop. What I will do, in the future of course, is post players headed for flop status.
 
I heard there was some sort of headbutt attempt or something silly today.
 
I heard the dude in the white jersey put on quite the act.
