Really like what the leafs did this draft, if even one of those high risk-high reward players they took from rounds 3 to 7 pans out I will be happy.

I find it hilarious that someone actually drafted Imama, and nobody took Nathan Noel. Imama is a good fighter and that is about it, throws the body around a lot.

 

[SuperSonic1305]

Uhhh Islanders just drafted someone from China??

Not drafting the right way. What does Don think about this?

 

[Coldnoodle]

Dubnyk almost done for six years.

Elliotte Friedman ‏@FriedgeHNIC 2m2 minutes ago
Might take until Monday, but it is believed to be six years and $25M-$26M

 

[Smiley90]

the good news is, the Canucks first-round pick has mad hair game

 

[iLLmAtlc]

About what I expected for lack. Too many goalies available and like last time teams know keeping lack/markstrom is untenable

 

[Crazymoogle]

pretty sure the Canucks already received a trade call from Brian Burke to get some of that hair

 

[CreeperBlocks]

I can't believe Godla was never Picked

 

[Pikma]

Holy shit, we got a GOALIE!!!!!!!!!

 

[yyzjohn]

I can't believe Godla was never Picked

Maybe he aint' "God-la". See what I did there?

Alex Prewitt ‏@alex_prewitt 21m21 minutes ago
MacLellan said he didn't expect to be active in the UFA market on July 1. Said trade route offers better chance for roster improvement.

THANK FUCK

I hope some team picks him up

Ron Francis said he's had "general, open and honest discussions" with Eric Staal's agent on a contract extension. Staal wants to stay.

Hey Yakuza 4 is a really good game. Kinda long but still great. Even if you never played the first three it gives you a run down on what happened in those games

Can't wait for Five

Is it available digitally? The only Yakuza game I own is Dead Souls and I got it for like $3, I haven't played it though.

Yes. There's a sale right now on PSN it's like 5.99

And you get a trophy for watching them. They're pretty long too.

I've been waiting for five forever.

Meanwhile, Brooks says the Rangers are close to finishing a goalie trade.

Doesn't sound like the Habs will be active on Sharp, etc:

I'm comfortable with that too.

Oh man is he counting on price having another historic season lol

Seriously?


UGH


Fuck this team

 

[MetatronM]

On the plus side, Raanta was pretty good for the Hawks this year from what I remember, and he's half the price of Cam Talbot.

Good good, wait that out Dalé.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

@renlavoietva: Eric Tangradi and Drayson Bowman won't get their qualifying offers. They are now UFAs #canadiens #tvasports

I'm okay with this. I doubted these guys would ever make it to the team

 

[HadesGigas]

Man, those Lack and Talbot trades really emphasize how much Tim Murray paid for Lehner. I see the appeal of having Lehner over them since he'll in theory be around longer and be affordable for longer, but wow.

 

[NetMapel]

Pretty cool that Islanders drafted the dude from China. Northern China is pretty darn cold so I hope NHL can grow hockey there. Hope this kid becomes the Yao Ming of hockey.

Don Cherry will not be pleased though.

Bergevin sounds like #Habs will have quiet summer: "We finished second overall with the team we had...I’m comfortable with the team we have”

Posturing man, he'll probably make some noise.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

OH BOY

I went in and I saw this

Trade rumor going around: Logan Couture (Sharks) vs Galchenyuk and maybe more.

Silly HFboards

 

[Cake Boss]

Seriously?


UGH

He expects Price to win 4 awards again next year.

What do I need to know about Haggerty? Do I put him on my players I hate list or players I like list?

Don Cherry will not be pleased though.

A guy who never lived up to the hype and retires early because of injuries? You're a jerk.

Yao was instrumental in bringing a lot of Chinese interest in the NBA. He played well enough.

 

[Coldnoodle]

Fucking hell, Flyers had a hell of a weekend.

I hate this division D8

Why can't we play in the Atlantic

 

[Syrinx]

Good Newfie kid Nathan Noel went undrafted?

A sad day indeed.

He showed a lot of promise during this past training camp. I thought he looked a little more NHL-ready at the time than Kevin Hayes, actually. He ended up with 33 points in Hartford this season (15 G, 18 A...maybe a little lower than might have been expected).

Here he is from preseason clowning the Flyers:

Hard to say how he's going to pan out, but he certainly has potential.
