Now that hes in O&B he's going to be a hall of famer. And 90% of the posters here have seen nothing but YouTube clips
Typical HF cool aid

What are you talking about? The reason people are blowing him right now is because no one had ANY idea he'd drop to 8.
Everyone also wanted Larsson and Hamilton just based solely on need. Not because they are better than Cout (they may or may not technically be better).
People outside of Flyerland have called getting him at 8 one of the steals of the draft. People are excited to have gotten a top 3 talent at number 8. I am sure people would have also been thrilled to move down to 3 and have taken Larsson though.
