Poor Columbus Rick Nash can't win.
I'm gonna be there early August for three days and then Quebec City for the next three days. That's after a family reunion in Detroit, god help us all on that one.

Oilers don't need Yakupov. I wonder if they'll trade down a couple spots.
That's cool. 3 days isn't a lot, but you can do a bit. Quebec City can be done in a day or two.
When you have a player like yakupov there, essentially NHL ready... And nearly a sure fire NHL star
You DON'T trade him
They just need D now. They can ice an all-star forward lineup... NHL has just made Edmonton into a dynasty

Oh man, the Columbus Lottery draft thread on HFboards is great right now.
Montreal fans won't know what to think when they see two guys wearing gear with teams that were in the playoffs.
And man, Columbus is going to suck forever.
:lol
They will be a bust if they don't within 4 years. They have now officially entered Pittsburgh Penguins circa 2004-2006 era of lotto draft
No Cup in Edmonton by 2016-2017 = failure.

Odds of Edmonton having first overall pick three years in a row: 2.27%.

So it's like trading in a nice looking car to get a discount on an ugly one?Predators offering 50% discount on a new Preds jersey if you trade in a Wings jersey
Can't remember how I got a lifetime ban from the Thrashers now Jets boards over there.
I want to throw up all over myself. As sick as the Pens' top 3 centers.

I think they'll pick Murray or trade the #1 pick.
NAIL NAIL NAIL
MacKinnon is suppose to be the next Crosby, and apparently already outplaying kids from this years draft, Habs picked the wrong year to be historically bad.
They either take Yakupov or trade the pick for a #1 D-manForeign Jackass said:
The latter could very well happen, but the former has a 0% chance of happening. You DON'T draft your positional need over the best player available at #1. You just don't.
If they really want Murray, they'll trade the #1 to Columbus for the #2 + prospects/players.
What a joke, there should be a limitations on how many consecutive lotteries or #1 overalls you could get at the draft.
If I was a fan of that shit franchise, I wouldn't know whether to be happy or depressed right now. The joke of the NHL.
By the time those kids are even at their prime, their entry level contracts would up and will require a raise, thats why if you were going to suck for 4 years straight, might as well let the kids develop and not burn their ECLs by playing in a hopeless team.

so they'll basically become the Miami Heat of hockey. Can't wait.
Pretty much. Time will come when they'll have to choose 1-2 of them and let the others go.

Except that in Basketball, two players can carry a game.
But the Heat are successful with the 3 players they have.
which really shows how silly the NBA has become.
Pretty much, get a couple of good players and you're set for the next 5 years.
