Wow, I've seen O'Neill go everywhere from 9th to whatever pick it is now... seems people have very divergent opinions.

Just goes to show what I have been thinking for some time . . . after maybe pick 5 the difference in talent between say 6 and 25 is not huge, and makes this draft a crap shoot . . . Hell, after pick 2 it becomes a crap shoot, as who really knows who will go with pick 3? It makes it less likely that say washington would pay those last two picks n the first round to move up to maybe 11, or even 7 or 8 . . .why? Finally, those late firsts are maybe equal to a lower second last year, when many taken in the 2nd round would be firsts this year.

NJ wants to trade their 3rd and 5th round picks for a middle-late second rounder... If interested, let me know here or via PM.

I thought this draft was only 3 rounds.

 

[Classic Devil]

I thought this draft was only 3 rounds.

Doesn't mean that I can't trade the later picks...

 

[KingofSpain]

Doesn't mean that I can't trade the later picks...

But who would want them?

 

[Classic Devil]

But who would want them?

Just because we're not using them in this draft doesn't mean they don't still have value. You might not get to use them, but their value remains regardless.

The Second round will now begin.

The Pittsburgh Penguins are on the clock with the 31st selection...

 

[Jaded-Fan]

Before I pick, I will offer up the first pick of the second round in trade. Young Guns has Alvaro Montoya rated the number 3 prospect in all of 2004.

I am shocked that he fell this far but if anyone needs a goaltender I am looking for offers, thinking a first next year and a second this year. Any takers? Dave Bolland is also available and I am also shocked at that fall as he has been compared to Schremp as a sniper on these boards. Conversly I would offer any goaltender in our system (Caron, Chiodo, Auben) for a third round pick and keep Montoya as a one two punch with Fleury. I need to run for about three hours will wait and see if there are any offers.
