McDavid's father is a name dropper

 

[IC FBGCav]

Got to hand it to Buf they know how to rebuild fast. Congrats Rude.

 

[rascal]

Thoughts on that trade for Colorado? Not very familiar with buffalo players

 

[ffldrew]

Great deal for Ryan O'Money. Was getting tired of the contract drama every year

 

[HellToupee]

Chelmsford blue collar??No way

keep chomping your gum dad

 

[IC FBGCav]

I hope Hanifin is there and Canes get 13,14,15 for the 5 pick.

 

[IC FBGCav]

Need some hope in Carolina.

I am not prepared to have my 5 year old be elite by taking him out of school early for extra ice time. I just want him to have fun

 

[Dickie Dunn]

I hope Hanifin is there and Canes get 13,14,15 for the 5 pick.

Not sure it would take that much, even though it's only two spots down from No. 3.

 

[ffldrew]

Zadorov, Grigorenko, No. 31, mJT Compher for RYan Oreilly and Jamie McGinn.

per Dreger, this is the deal.Murray loves shipping out all the prospects. Guess this team isn't ####### around anymore.

I don't love it.

Ryan was a 2nd round pick and while he was very good last year was a struggle to watch IMO. He didn't go to next level and stayed near the same on offense. In fact he seemed weaker along the boards. So we get 2 new first round picked guys and a 2nd rounder who is at Michigan. Zadarov is a 6 4 defenseman. Avs need that more than a center and now some added depth. Avs in AHL are weak. They have to get some guys in the pipeline.

I agree, I am just wishing, we need talented players period. I will be happy with Hanifin.

 

[Dickie Dunn]

Well, now I throw up my hands.

 

[IC FBGCav]

Well, now I throw up my hands.

You can get 3 really good, cheap young players still. Helps a lot with the cap issues.

 

[IC FBGCav]

Jack Johnson all over again? WTF? Meaning going back to college.

 

[Dickie Dunn]

Well, now I throw up my hands.

I agree. I'd still be shocked if Sweeney makes all three picks ... just saying I have no idea what the end game is now.

 

[Dickie Dunn]

Hard to believe Sweeney couldn't have gotten into the top five if they really wanted Hanifin like everyone believed. So again, who knows?

at this point I hope he doesn't make a stupid offer to move up to try to save face. Now that Provorov is off the board I'm satisfied standing pat

 

[RUSF18]

Please just let that head scout from Columbus announce the rest of the picks.

 

[Billy Bats]

Provorov!!

 

[HellToupee]

Please just let that head scout from Columbus announce the rest of the picks.

no kidding

 

[Boston]

Please just let that head scout from Columbus announce the rest of the picks.

I must break you...

That's exactly what I was thinking of.

 

[HellToupee]

Jesus Burke , the comb over

 

[HellToupee]

Oiler's owner has a creepy vibe talking to McDavid

 

[IC FBGCav]

I have no interest usually other then the Canes. But can't wait to see what Boston does and see what midget JR drafts for the Pens.

Murray has always said he wanted to turn prospects & assets into young,established players. Kane & O'Reilly fit that. Grigorenko has talent but thrown into bad situation with Buff - needs change of scenery. Zadorov I hate to lose as he projected as top line D but think he turned people in org off a bit last yr with immaturity. Compher I also like. Going back to Mich for soph yr & led team in scoring.

 

[ffldrew]

Rantenan nice size and perhaps ready now. I like it

 

[IC FBGCav]

Hanifin not NHL ready? I know he was a good pick because of here but not big on scouting, so I have no idea.

 

[AcerFC]

Oh, hello ladies sitting two rows behind Lawson Crouse

 

[rascal]

ROR saying he wants 8 mil. Oof...

 

[IC FBGCav]

Do the Bruins brass walk up and down the stage 3 times?

It would be really cool if they just rattle off 3 names and have a stage party.

 

[ffldrew]

OK Bruins show us what ya got

 

[IC FBGCav]

OK Bruins show us what ya got

Who you want?

 

[ffldrew]

ROR saying he wants 8 mil. Oof...

Surprised it wasn't 9M

 

[IC FBGCav]

ROR saying he wants 8 mil. Oof...

Surprised it wasn't 9M

Semin got 7mil he should get 14mil

 

[IC FBGCav]

Seat fillers to the Bruins table.

 

[IC FBGCav]

1st looks pretty good. :thisthingon:

Also, the Hawks have let go of a ton of talent and still dominate by keeping the core.

 

[ffldrew]

Bruins need goaltending. Right?

 

[HellToupee]

Connor & Barzal would've been nice

 

[HellToupee]

B's pulled a boner here. Wish we had a mulligan

 

[Billy Bats]

Connor & Barzal would've been nice

What the #### are they doing?!?

 

[Billy Bats]

Zboril was compared to Radko Gudas. That's good, right?!

 

[HellToupee]

Connor & Barzal would've been nice

What the #### are they doing?!?

wtf Senyshyn & Debrusk



I blamed Chia for bad drafts

 

[Billy Bats]

What in the holy hell?!?

 

[ffldrew]

Bruins get Bob McKenzies number 43 at 15. This is a train wreck day.

Hopefully Goodell announce a ban on Brady for a year in the next hour

 

[HellToupee]

Mike O'Connell , Peter Chiarelli , Don Sweeney

meet the new boss , same as the old boss

 

[northern exposure]

After all those Boston picks, it appears Edmonton has traded the 16th pick to the Islanders.

16 and 33 picks go to Islanders for Griffin Reinhart.

Love the deal for the Oilers. Reinhart was a Edmonton Oil King as a Junior.

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

Reinhart!

 

[Boston]

Is there a need to reach when you have three second-rounders? That kid better be good because I have a feeling there are gonna be a lot of eyes on him after today's moves...

I have a Trent klatt sweater
