[lupin23rd]

Is he really slipping, or is it just the team with the top pick really needs a defenseman?

I think any other team it's still a consensus pick no?

Allegedly Columbus covets Galchenyuk over Yakupov.

 

[KingHenrik30]

Reading this you can tell just how far gone howsons mind is:

"Haggerty says that Boston was asked to part with two from the group of Tyler Seguin, Milan Lucic and prospect Dougie Hamilton, along with other prospects and draft picks."

Cuz Howson.

 

[SpectreFire]

Reading this you can tell just how far gone howsons mind is:

Wat.

 

[dem]

Columbus will take Murray(if available...), Galchenyuk, or Forsberg.

They want no part of a Russian.


Thus the Canadiens just won the day.

 

[Cake Boss]

Reading this you can tell just how far gone howsons mind is:

Huwzen pls

Could still be a trade though. Frankly, if Howson wants a team to bite on one of his ridiculous deals, the #2 pick might have to factor in somehow.

Ya know I would definitely consider putting Couture in a package if the return was Nash+2nd overall. Draft Galy with the pick and we have our #2 center back!

 

[Smiley90]

Still no big trades, I want something to happen COME OOOON.

Yak HAS to go first, everyone passing on him is nuts. Trade down to get D later if you have to, but no way they're skipping yakz

 

[Solo]

90 mins!

 

[Brinbe]

This f'n draft...

 

[DopeyFish]

It will be hilarity if 3rd or 4th gets the consensus first pick

It's like no one wants to win

 

[Solo]

Whoever lands Nail needs to force him to shave that shit stache off. It's almost as bad as Crosby's. Almost.

 

[KingHenrik30]

@tsnjamesduthie: As it stands right now, CBJ doubtful Nash gets traded tonight. Feel market will heat up once Parise signs after July 1.

Remember when Columbus was going to wait till things "heat up" around the draft?

 

[Solo]

I'm guessing this will be the most watched draft since Crosby's. 4 Canadian teams in the Top 10 and Ottawa looking to join them.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

Edmonton drafted RNH 1st overall in 2011 despite needing a defenceman (Larsson was the highest D-man drafted at #4).

I don't see them passing on Yakupov for Murray, unless Murray is top-pairing material.

 

[Cake Boss]

1 HOUR!

GIVE ME GRIGO!!

 

[Merguson]

Despite reports to the contrary, I am now confident the Canadiens do NOT intend to take Teravainen at #3.

From Eklund. I guess the Habs are taking Teravainen then.

EDIT: This is old isn't it..

 

[Smiley90]

TSN show starts in 1h, draft in 2? Or what?

 

[Cake Boss]

"@SSimpsonHockey: Look for Tim Thomas to end up with the Leafs. Brian Burke will add a year to his contract. Probably a 2nd rd. pick coming back. #goodforall

WUT

 

[Red_Man]

Bergevin looks like such a boss, such a relief from looking at skeletor all the time.

 

[Kave_Man]

Da fuck?

Draft is in 55 minutes.

Subban to Columbus for the 2nd pick. Draft Yaks and Gally. The Montreal Sting! The best defense is a good offense, amirite?!

 

[Wendel Clark]

that would be great, but i doubt it happens if Thomas isn't playing next year.

 

[Plinko]

Reading this you can tell just how far gone howsons mind is:

LOL

Howson is insane.

 

[Plinko]

WUT

LOL that can't be true.

Oh, Leafs fans. I feel bad for you.

Forget Marvie--keep posting these rumors. This stuff is hilarious.

 

[Marvie_3]

Seems like the plan Chicago is trying to use.

 

[Red_Man]

Didn't think you could be more excited for the draft then I am, then I turned on TSN and saw this guy

 

[Smiley90]

Seems like the plan Chicago is trying to use.

Not on the powerplay.

Also, draft in 55, when does TSN start?

 

[Marvie_3]

Not on the powerplay.

What's a power play?

 

[Red_Man]

"Buffalo GM Darcy Regier is working the Draft floor he spoke to Columbus and now Calgary he wants to make a move #NHL"

Stay the fuck away from that #2 pick Buffalo

 

[Fei]

Considering Howson's asking prices, I don't even want to think about trading with the BJs.

 

[Smiley90]

What's a power play?

It's this thing were you drop pass to the best opposing player and watch them score on you... Twice in the same game. Canucks are good at it.

 

[Red_Man]

I don't know how unusual this is, but as of right now Edmonton hasn't contacted Laranov, aka Yakupov and Galchenyuk's agent, and apparently only made a decision this morning.

 

[Marvie_3]

It's this thing were you drop pass to the best opposing player and watch them score on you... Twice in the same game. Canucks are good at it.

I think I've seen Chicago do that minus the drop passes.

 

[brucewaynegretzky]

Are we there yet?

 

[Solo]

Are we there yet?

40 more minutes :_(

 

[DopeyFish]

Burke and Gillis are making out in the tunnel to the dressing rooms... Some reporter is suggesting trade talk but i am more inclined to think they are making out since nothing will come of it

They're both mutually agreeing that Cody Hodgson can go fuck himself.

 

[brucewaynegretzky]

Pick #1 is getting dealt or it will be Murray. As Manics would say, "Book it."

 

[Red_Man]

Bobby Mack said unless something changes last minute, nothing has come close to make the Oil consider moving the 1st.

 

[Smiley90]

Pick #1 is getting dealt or it will be Murray. As Manics would say, "Book it."

No.

 

[Merguson]

Edmonton Oilers, at 1st overall, select Nail Yakupov.

Book it. This shit happens every year and the consensus top prospect goes 1st overall in the end.

 

[dem]

With the first pick the Edmonton Oilers are proud to select Chris Phillips.... er i mean Ryan Murray.

 

[Marvie_3]

Just finished this.

Kane & Kane

Fucking Pierre this is why you will never be a GM. You go BPA all the time everytime.
