If you listen to the Pundents this includes great NHL minds on places like XM and TSN and others these shows include the likes of lot of ex-players and radio personalities (ie like Phil Espo, Cam Stewart, Mike Bossy, Darren Pang) others on the NHL network, you have to have XM I am not sure if it is on Cirus they will tell you as well as on TSN (which is ussually pretty accurate) That there is a good chance that Eric Johnson will never make it too Minnesota. Its out there. I am just passing it along. I recommend getting this package if you can because there is a lot of usefull information.
Please, I do not want to sound silly do not email these people I am not saying that they are the guys that said it specifically there are only so many people that work on the XM network these are just the names I remember, I am just saying when these people talk on the NHL XM Channel and the discussion of young players for next years draft and and the draft they talk about guys like Eric Johnson, next time the subject comes up I will actually pay attention to who said what, I know I have heard it a lot. I know the one guy was the man from TSN I believe his name was McKenzee (sp)
