Need to get my doom and gloom out. I fear we're gonna draft ones that make everyone go WTF and then they basically never end up playing for the Caps

So ****ing glad he's not making the decisions anymore.
His day 1 work in the draft (well, he and the scouting department) was basically as good as it gets. In fact I wonder if Ted told him to draft Gustafson because he knew the market.

Sources are telling me that the Oilers hope that Leon Draisaitl will be available when they will make their pick. #tvasports

Some on Draft floor are convinced the 1st pick overall is on the move and the Canucks may be the target. Still early and no sign of Tallon.

So much contradictory information.

I just don't want it to go to Philly.

Tallon wants Ehlers. So Vancouver at 6th is probably where Tallon feels comfortable trading down.

Though I know the 3 centers + Ekblad brings it to 5th, I'm not sure there is a guarantee that the Islanders won't pick Ehlers. I'm kinda shocked though that the Islanders aren't in on it. Move up and pick a center to play behind Tavares.

@hfialkov: Panthers are keeping the pick. they are done. Philly didnt offer enuf acc to source. #FlaPanthers

"Done."

Having a hard time believing Fabbri gets past NSH & ARI. We'll see. Hopefully they're both high on Kapanen/Perlini/Fiala.

Canucks and Panthers still talking. Van offer for 1st pick believed to be 6th, 24th and last years 1st rnd pick, Hunter Shinkaruk. #TSN

Dreger says still talking. Another guy on TSN says Tallon said he is done and is going to make the pick.

Sabres GM Tim Murray says he's still trying to get another first-round pick for tonight. No luck to this point

Pounce on this BMac. Send 13, Mojo for Ehrhoff

I hate how pro sports need to have pre pre game and then another pre game, instead of just starting **** when they say it starts.

Don't agree with "as good as it gets." Was solid tho. I always attributed the drafting to Mahoney. Guess we'll find out if I was right.

But my comment was more general... Trades, etc.

Non-stop booing of Bettman. Why does he still talk at these things?
