A first round pick for some bum I’ve never even heard of!? This team is pathetic and will never win a cup and continues to piss away the careers of 2 superstars. First round picks should be reserved for something that actually moves the needle.


You not hearing of him doesn't make him a bum. I dont know a pile about him but have noticed him (in a good way) when seeing him play in the past.
I havent watched enough to know for sure where he fits in to our D. From my limited viewing and reading about him this morning there does seem to be a player there and I think he will be an overall upgrade and will "move the needle".


He does seem like a reliable player that can hold up playing a decent amount of minutes. I wonder if he will be tried with Nurse on the 2nd pair. Kulak/Nurse works sometimes, but I feel like Kulak really starts to fade when he gets too much ice time above the 3rd pair. If Walman can be a puck mover for Nurse on the right, and keep up playing 20 mins+ a night, we'll be in better shape. Kulak/Emberson should be a very good 3rd pair in the playoffs.
