Hey Bob McKenzie, what does it matter if Mathews' mother couldn't speak english when she met her future husband?

Character concerns IMO

Good thread. Assume Matthews is the #1 but I'd love to listen to the Toronto guys going over the pick. It should have been a slam dunk, but Laine is really making the case that it's not.

Also, I asked this elsewhere but if anyone knows where I can grab old draft predictions from scouting services or magazines, I'd be appreciative. I'm looking for the top 30s for 2005-2009. Have TSN and CSS.

This is an old post, but I am pretty sure I have every Draft Preview from The Hockey News from 2005-onwards. I'll have to check the next time I am at my parent's house. Not sure if this helps.

That seems to be the norm talking point for most #1 overall. Pretty sure McDavid has the same thing in Edmonton.
