WHAT TO WATCH FOR

- Sakic/Roy bluffing with MacKinnon as 1st overall?
- How much activity in the top 4?
- Carolina at 5th overall is open to anything?
- Tyler Seguin on a new team?
- Calgary still trying to get 1st overall?
- Oilers pushing for Coburn, but so are other teams?!
- Perron for sell? CBJ's frontrunners?
- Cory Schneider is in play!
- EJ+1st combo for Hedman+3rd?
- Ducks and Flyers, Ryan and Coburn package?
- Skinner, Myers, and others (Vanek/Miller) available on Canes and Sabres?
- Flyers looking for a goaler?!
- Vinny wants to be signed quickly?
- Cammalleri on the block for Flames rebuild?
- Edler, one of the most hottest players on the market?
- Horton going to hit free agency? Ference and his rights are tradeable?
- Bob going to turn down that 10 million dollar contract? Thomas to Columbus an option?
- Oilers shopping 7th overall and other picks for established players?
- Pietrangelo not liking Blues offers?
- Miller for NHL ready help?
- Matt Duchene close to contract extension
- Fleischmann to a contender?
- Fletcher willing to move Clutterbuck?

STOLEN FROM MAIN BOARD

​

EDIT-- COULD A MOD MAKE A TABLE FOR ME THAT WOULD ALLOW US TO PUT THE PICKS AND TRADES IN A ORGANIZED TABLE?

[N o o d l e s]

The fact that this draft is being talked about as being one of the most active/exciting ever makes me scared that nothing is going to happen and it's going to be boring.

 

[Confound]

Dont. Trade. Seguin.

Would be one of the biggest, if not the biggest regrets this franchise has done since, Joe Thornton? Thornton trade did have it's benefits though in the long term. Not saying the two are exactly similar, but I would hate to trade away a young potential franchise player *cough* for three pieces that may never make an impact.

 

[Shaun]

mock draft on nhl network right now.

 

[KuralySnipes]

I'm still thinking Jones goes #1 no matter what Sakic says.

Just finished watching a special on the 2003 draft considered one of if not the best draft ever. In the first round look at these picks attached.... the Rangers really screwed up with Hugh Jessiman at 12 and St louis Shawn Bellle at 30 both had 1 point combined in their NHL careers in 2/20 games...

We picked Mark Stuart at 21 after that pick these guys were selected... Ryan Kesler, Mike Richards, Brian Boyle, Corey Perry , Loui Erriksson, David Backes, Shea Weber, Joe Pavelski, .This was one of the best drafts ever but for us it is probably the worst draft we have ever had except for Patrice Bergeron at 45. Here is a list of the others we picked who either never played a single game or had a cup of coffee....

Masi Marjamaki, Byron Bitz, Frank Rediker, Patrick Valcak. Mike Brown, Nate Thompson, Benoit Mondou, Kevin Regan, ... wow...the scouting staff had to be fired after this debacle...

 

[corpfan1]

Would only trade Seguin:

1) To Colorado for #1 plus something.

2) To Nashville for #4 plus something.


It would have to be the pick plus a roster player plus them accepting another salary dump like Peverley.

So....

Seguin + Peverley to Colorado for #1 pick plus ???.

Seguin + Peverley to Nashville for #4 pick plus ???.



So, it would have to be Seguin moving out west, plus us getting a top 4 pick in the draft and Peverley's contract gone.

We are talking Matt Duchesne or Colin Wilson or something like that.

Dont. Trade. Seguin.

Would be one of the biggest, if not the biggest regrets this franchise has done since, Joe Thornton? Thornton trade did have it's benefits though in the long term.

Nope, dropping cap, teams forced to waive/buyout players all over the place, it`s been busy already, this one will be, IMO, the busiest/most active draft day in history

LMAO swap Bergeron and Stuart and voila Bruins had a pretty good draft.... Thompson and Bitz play/played in the show 4 guys from one draft in the NHL is probably above norm ....

 

[Confound]

This would be a lot more exciting if we had a first, damn you Jagr and you're 0 goals in the playoffs.

AS I said if we had not picked Bergy this draft would have been a total disaster. I pointed out the players who were picked after Stuart that had productive NHL careers at higher levels than what the B's got in Stuart. Byron Bitz was ok and Nate Thompson was a useful 4th liner but he didn't play for us. IN a normal year you are right but that draft was extremely deep and had more players that played in the league and are productive still than many drafts except for 1979. It was disappointing for that reason. If there was a draft that we should have moved up in that was it.. look at the top 20 just before Stuart...

M.A Fleury , Eric Staal, Horty, Vanek, Ryan Suter , Braydon Cobourn, Phaneuf, Jeff Carter, Dustin Brown, Seabrook, Parise, Getzlaf, Burns....

It will be busy between now and the open of camp. I don't know if draft day will be insane, but I do think this off-season will be one of the busiest. I think we also will have a really busy off-season again next year as teams will likely have 6-8 million more in cap space.

Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, did you enjoy the play?

Hindsight is always 20/20, especially when it comes to predicting the future of 18-year-old boys. Every draft has its busts, and every team has a list of regrets as long as a Chara stick.

 

[RaybCamn]

Would you train Seguin and Pevs McQuaide for CBJ 2 first round picks they have 3

 

[member 96824]

2003 was a fantasy draft basically and we chose Stuart.

Can't even make fun of Pitt and Fleury.

 

[BergyMeister]

If something was going to go down today with Boston what time do these things usually happen?

 

[JoeIsAStud]

Agreed, plus Bitz played in the show. He only got 97 games before the injury cut his career short. Nate Thompson is going to end up playing over a decade in the NHL

Yeah the Bruins draft could have been better in 2003. But in the end they drafted a franchise cornerstone player (Bergy), and 2 guys who will spend more than a decade as NHL players.

It's not like they drafted hugh Jessiman

 

[DKH]

Heading to draft and a bummer no picks till 60, one of best drafts in years but oh well. Will be interesting every time I hear trade announced on the podium and I hope we can see the Boston table

 

[DKH]

Open mind go with it- we both have no idea so that's a good thing; history is all we can go by and this group has not been afraid to do things

 

[BergyMeister]

Have fun!! Boo all the Axis of Snivel's picks.

 

[Dellstrom]

Not going to rule out Chia moving into the 1st, but really unlikely...

Hoping Peverley is gone today. Have a feeling Caron will be gone as well. Perhaps them, the rights to Ference, Horton, and possibly Khudobin can give us enough assets to either move up or draft multiple players.

 

[KuralySnipes]

Chiarelli did say yesterday that he's trying to move into the 1st round.

 

[Shaun]

This day is dragging.

 

[KuralySnipes]

I still can't believe Bob might turn down the $10M contract offer.
