If Ottawa was open to dumping Murray while moving back from 7 to 16 the Caps may want to get in on that. It could net them Kasper/Korchinski/Lekkerimaki.
I sorted of called the Protas & Johnson picks more recently during Day 2. They were logical fits. That's about it. I recall pulling for Backstrom of course way back but much easier to handicap early.
If they go winger in the first round and he's still available I'd go Warren at 46 unless someone crazy like Firkus slides. Warren will probably be gone but that would be a beaut. A large, physical old school RD. Punishing. Some later options I like: Petrovsky, Minten, Gustafson, Dyck, James, Morrison, Kaplan, Neuchev, Sparkes, Pettersson, Spicer, Ward, Milne and Leddy. A wide net! Heh.
