Francis himself seemed disappointed at the lack of movement ahead of the draft and he actually put the blame at the doorstep of the Vegas Golden Knights, saying that NHL GMs learned their lessons back in 2017 and refused to overpay to protect their players this time around.
Check out some of Francis' curious comments from last night:
Okay, fair enough... you can't get blood from a stone as the old saying goes but why make the picks you made then?
You could of picked Carey Price, Vladimir Tarasenko, Max Domi, Ninoreiter and more...
Could of easily built a Stanley Cup team...
