if he wasnt a bust, then why did they trade him ( along with adam graves , petr klima dn jeff sharples ) for the guy the was drafted #2 , right behind murphy in the same draft ?? jimmy carson
the best of the bunch was graves, who was drafted 2nd round that year ( murphy and carson went 1 and 2 overall )

They also traded Adam Oates for Bernie Federko.

If it wasn't for Petr Klima busting, the Wings would have drafted Jaromir Jagr instead of Keith Primeau. So, thanks for being a bust Petr Klima.

I was hoping for clarification on that. Primeau wasn't the biggest bust of course, but that dude had a lot of hype and played like a big pussy.

Hard to call Fischer a bust considering he literally died on the bench during a game. Had to be resuscitated and that's why he can never play again.
Dying during a game should be a mitigating circumstance for bustness.
He'd still be playing if not for the heart condition. He's only 35 this year.

Primeau was fucked the minute he was drafted. Two Hall of Famers at his position, still in their prime, in front of him.
Plus Jagr being picked right after him. Doomed.
Was going to take years before he ever got enough ice time to really show his stuff here. It's why he left. Had a nice career in Philly.
Was always going to be overshadowed by Jagr. Jagr was that good.
But still no Darko as he had a long and good career in Philly.
Straight up Darko busts are more a football thing. Happen all the time in football. I don't even count baseball in this. They miss so bad but they expect/accept it. Basketball and hockey, skill will show through at some point and they'll have a career. Usually the same in basketball. If they have skill, it will come out eventually.

Primeau is the best Darko comparison if that's what you're looking for. Just because that was a pretty stacked class and Primeau was a disappointment here.
Shawn Burr probably belongs in this conversation somewhere too.

Shawn Burr probably belongs in this conversation somewhere too. Dafuq? Primeau had a 15 year career and was a 30 goal scorer on multiple occasions. The flyers had a keith primeau night after he had to retire due to concussions. The darko comparison is flat out dumb.

Honestly, how many centers playing in the NHL (for anybody) would have taken minutes away from Yzerman or Federov? Super Mario, Gretzky, Messier.... Primeau had a great career. It just was never gonna be in Detroit to the liking of anyone.
