when was the last time we were able to say that BFC??
our vaunted defensive prospects have either blossomed and will be playing in the NHL or have Blummed out...
I suspect that such a vet LHD, if he is to arrive, won't appear in contract negotiations 'till October.Um.....never. But look at how YOUNG the D corp is in Nashville; Weber is the old guy, Josi, Klein is kinda an old guy, Ekholm, Jones, Ellis, hell Bartley is a rookie but he seems like a vet. It's why I want a vet LHD to push the loser of Ek v Bart to Milwaukee
Mueller left as a UFA this season. Cehlin will be in Milwaukee and as you do, I view him as a sleeper this season.I thought mueller was gone. Where was Cehlin in your list too? He's a sleeper in my mind.

I see a lot of Erat in Cehlin.
Predators fan via Milwaukee, new poster here, hello. Just jumping in to say I was at the Admirals game on Saturday night and I'm sounding a Colton Sissons alert. Deft skater if not blazing, good ice sense, seems to always be in the right place - had two goals and rang the pipe for what would've been the hat trick. The Admirals have played only 5 games but of players with 5 games or less he's tied for second in the AHL in scoring with 4-2-6. And this is someone who's billed as a defensive forward. Looked like the real deal to me.

Devils fan here, I just wanted to ask about one of your prospects. I wanted the Devils to draft Sissons in 2012 instead of Matteau. It seems that he's developed pretty well and should be in line for a promotion sooner rather than later. I'm guessing he's a a 3C with the upside of a second line center at some point.
Would you guys be willing to deal him and is there anything the Devils have that might interest you?
Thanks in advance for any responses.
His playing style and eventual upside is as you say-- 2/3 center -- two-way game with some scoring touch, Mike Fisher is a decent comparison.
With that said, we're very thin on forward prospects, particularly centers, so I doubt the Predators are into trading him, especially given his hot start to his rookie year in the AHL.
