Draft Chat Thread

[The Maltais Falcon]

The Ducks are taking Ryan? That's what the TSN guys are saying ... Brian Burke had breakfast with Ryan and his family this morning. Maybe it's just some gamesmanship on the part of Brian Burke - trying to get inside Bobby Clarke's head and make him try to pull the trigger on a deal.

EDIT: Btw, is there a chat thread? The board's going to get cluttered if everyone starts a new thread for each bit of info that comes out of Ottawa.

Well, isn't that a surprise? Heh. Granted, the Orange County paper had a quote from Burke that he can lie all he wants about the draft.... so one never knows.

 

[Vagrant]

Wow. That's unbelievable. At least Carolina gets Johnson now.

 

[turnbuckle*]

I'm not surprised; the scouts love him. Johnson will likely be picked by the Canes.

 

[Kitsune]

as a Wolves fan, I hope Pouliot drops to #5, cause as a Habs fan, I would be extremely happy

Man I'm sick of Crosby.

Man I'm sick of Crosby.

he's a bad actor

 

[Lionheart]

Bob Chiarelli is like a black hole of charisma... make him stooooooop....

 

[SedinFan*]

Man I'm sick of Crosby.

You won't be sick of him when you see his amazing puckhandling, vision, scoring ability etc etc etc...

 

[Hunter Gathers]

These guys need to step down and shut up and get on with the draft. It's getting annoying already.

I agree. It's always irritating ... blah blah blah ... "I'd like to thank .... zzzzzzzzzzzz"

Yeah seriously but when you have Sydney Crosby saying "I'm the next Sydney Crosby"

I'm more excitied about 2 through 28 honestly. I have nothing against the kid, he's a sweetheart and I'm going to enjoy watching him play. I'm just sick of hearing about him and watching him.

"Change my name to Sidney"

Oy, that was stupid.

 

[HF_Rangers]

"Change my name to Sidney"

That lame joke and the poor exchange with mayor sidney and melnyk was a "Cheap Seats" moment. (Show on ESPN Classic)

God I want to beat Bettman with a brick, his voice just pisses me off.

The podium has more personality.

 

[Le Golie]

I'm not watching on TV, can someone tell me if they are getting close to picking...?

 

[Brad*]

Right...now.

 

[Phelan]

Crosby was just selected.

Edit: Now the real excitement can begin!!

 

[cheers]

penguins up there right now

 

[Hunter Gathers]

I swore Luc Bourdon was going first...

 

[Jared Ramsden]

God I want to beat Bettman with a brick, his voice just pisses me off.

Even though I'm not an NBA fan, I find David Stern even more annoying

 

[Victory Ali*]

It's weird to only hear people clapping and no cheering.
