Asplund for me, not sold on Bjork but KA probably wants to keep him.

That would make me happy, I want to keep Sam.

I’m surprised but great move!

I was all in for Rossi last year so if he is 100% that guy is a potential 1C or 2C. Reuniting him with Quinn could benefit both guys. I’m sure there would be a little bit of chirping in the room about draft order. Maybe Karmanos and Ventura have told KA that Rossi was higher on their boards.

I have a friend who played for the original Macon Whoopees in 73-74.

Don’t tell the Wild that, he IS their missing link.

She is a scout for the Kraken.

I went for Beniers at 1 because he is centre and could be our Toews. I went Eklund next due to the skill level and because he is a forward. I am not opposed to Power or Hughes if they need a Dman. I am not in favour of choosing Clarke or Edvinsson.

Nedeljkovic is one that should be explored. Young goalie had a good season and a decent playoff. He is going to improve and is still cheap.

I’m glad the Sabres did not take him, seemed pretty wimpy at the U20.

Bettman will now allow blockbuster trades.

Three HOF dmen in Robinson, Savard and Lapointe was impressive. Blake,Foote and Bourque was almost as good but Bourque was well past his prime.

Stamkos will ‘need’ some sort of surgery. Next man up?

What about the old pointy centre of the net. Wasnt it Mark Howe who went in hard and was impaled near his spine?

I think he is more of a playmaker so my ceiling for him is 25 G 50A.

I like him more than Turcotte but a bit less than Zegras. By field may end up as the best of this bunch but I don’t have confidence in that yet.

Tampa mayor was hoping for a loss so they could raise the Cup at home. The stress level will ratchet up if they lose the next one and return to Montréal.

Looks like mugshots except for the smiles. McFarland was a HC in the OHL with Kingston and an assistant with the Leafs.

He’s got more game left than Wayne Simmonds, who gets brought in for a similar role.

The replay I watched looked like upper thigh area but damn close to the cup. It would be worse for a guy my age, saggy junk hanging’ out.

I am guessing here but VP sounds like a promotion, so his previous employer would not prevent him from leaving. The position may be the same as director but calling him VP sounds more important. Titles…Funny how a VP would report to an Assistant GM.

So young… RIP.

That one day could be this year if they let him have the surgery or a season’s rest.

Half of my schooling was with the imperial system and then the metric system was introduced. I understand and use both but need to convert some numbers. I prefer pounds for weight, gallons for liquids and inches/feet for construction. Long distance has me use kilometres and I prefer Celsius for temperature. I work in the electrical distribution industry and we still measure our towers and poles in feet yet our conductor lengths are in meters. Kinda screwy if you think about it. Canada didn’t go all in for the metric system because our largest trading partner didn’t join.

Almost half of you voted for 82 games. There should be very little chatter about his coaching abilities until next summer. LoL!
