Thanks for posting McGoo.

As an aside, how on Earth do some of these people get jobs writing for TSN? Even for a hockey article, that was astonishingly painful to read. There were plenty of spelling and grammar mistakes and, more importantly, the article completely lacked flow. Almost any of Dobber's writers could have penned a much higher quality review of young Mr. MacKinnon's accomplishments. 'Pity they weren't given the opportunity to do so.

Thanks for sharing.

I was glad to see Halifax acquire MacKinnon as they need to improve. One of my buddies lives next door to the Moose's rink and he will certainly enjoy MacKinnon and Frk playing together for the next few years.

I am interested to see how well MacKinnon does in the Q as he's been heavily hyped (due to the Cole Harbour connection) for a very long time
