A number of people still rue the day we missed him by one pick, since we picked 30th.

We got a young kid named Darryl Green.

I don't regret the dependable Hall of Famer defenseman over the flashy Offensive player one bit.

Thats a great example of why playing the "what if" game with something like the draft is so stupid. You never know what would have happened if things had worked out differently. It's a pointless arguement.
Hell, IF he had drafted Peterson he could have tore his knee to pieces on the first day of training camp and then where would we be.
