As a Habs fan, I think the crazy thing about Cole is how fast he learns and adapts to wherever he’s playing. Seeing how well he played defensively and how he could also be a playmaker really cemented my belief that he’s a top line winger already and he can handle whatever’s thrown at him. If he can still put up goals and points against the best teams in the playoff, imagine what he can do in a full regular season?

[@AAbram-yt9de]

Great video BUT I’m going to need to point out. Rob Ramage wasn’t a bottom 6 grinder. He was one of the Blues top defenseman. This trade helped win Calgary a Stanley Cup. It was the typical prospect for proven talent trade you see near the deadline. At first it was a win for Calgary but in the long run it was a win for St Louis. Also don’t discount the impact Adam Oates had on Brett Hull. Oates could be in part 2 of this video, he was an assist machine in college then went undrafted and traded away for an established veteran in Bernie Federko.

Thanks for Caufield 😜🥇💪

[@raurymauk]

When Caufield says Sean Farrell is a steal for Habs that's when you know it's good draft pick.

[@Katie-hb8iq]

Markus Nasland is another prospect that proves having a slow start does not project to future years. He was not very good in Pittsburg, but was much better in Vancouver. And then he slowed down again when the coach changed to a more defensive system. There's more to the formula than the prospects talent and work ethic. It's worth revisiting Caufield since he was awful under Ducharme and has been brilliant under St. Louis - in the same season. A coach can really affect this a lot. In many ways, it's out of the player's control if a coach can have that much influence over a prospect's success.

[@krisrolph1058]

Rob you could do a whole video on ex-Oilers and traded Oilers prospects that when on to be all the missing pieces we need now lmao

[@senseofjustice0218]

Love your videos Rob, but as a Blues fan I gotta disagree on that Hull trade being "worst trade ever" material. Sure, it was absolutely lopsided a year after, but Rob Ramage was essential to Calgary in the playoffs and basically slid into Gary Suter's spot as a top pairing defenseman and power play QB when Suter broke his jaw in the opening round against the Canucks. Who knows if they win the Cup that year without him. I'd compare it more to a trade like Iginla for Nieuwendyk where one team that's on the cusp of a Stanley Cup gives up a future superstar for that missing piece to help push them over the top.

[@scottfairbanks759]

Hull is probably the greatest naturally gifted scorer ever to play. I will never understand how Calgary could give him away for virtually nothing. It wasn't exactly a secret he could score at will. Upper management must have developed some personal beef with him we will never know about because his off ice issues were never as bad as people say. His father Bobby had one hell of a career too.
