Since we did a Cam Fowler video last time, I thought I would point to this segment of The Element which gave a behind-the-scenes look at the Ducks' Pre-Draft Meeting. The group happened to be talking about Fowler, who the Ducks pegged at third, when Bob Murray asked quite matter-of-factly why the room pegged Fowler ahead of the others?
MADDEN: Fowler's skill and poise won out over Gubrandson's character and competitiveness.
MURRAY: We're not worried about Fowler's character at all? Nobody has question marks, right?
- Eric Stephens links his story on Matt Clark as part of his continuing coverage of Ducks' Prospects. Surprisingly, we're linked in his story, where we contradict the Ducks by listing Matt with two T's.
Rising defense prospect Mat Clark is profiled in latest Ducks A-Z. And yes, it is one 't' according to the club. http://bit.ly/aOsxG8
- Me linking my interview with Matt from last season, where he confirmed to me that he "normally" uses two T's, which is why his junior team in Brampton had him listed thusly.
T-Gate. I realize I'm 'just a blog' but I have him on tape: "Either way, but two 'T's is what I normally go with" http://tinyurl.com/3xqovex
