If anyone wants to read a complete meltdown by Canucks fans regarding not trading their UFA's at the deadline then take a read below. Remember that Jim Benning was in discussion to be our future GM before GMTM was hired. http://hfboards.hockeysfuture.com/showthread.php?t=2038983&page=10

https://twitter.com/RogersNHLGCL/status/704762055669055488 Here is a great link to a video previewing Jack and Connor. Sorry for not being able to embed tweets. Have no idea how.

Wow I know they have a couple of injuries but the Oil are rolling Zack Kassian on their top line with Hall and Draisaitl. Zack. Kassian. https://twitter.com/DailyFaceoff/status/704708336302698496/photo/1?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw

I donno, with Franson out of the lineup it's not that bad. Risto, Pysyk and Bogo I would say are above average skaters and McCabe is atleast average. I'm so glad Franson isn't playing though. He would have a few pylon moments out there for sure.

I think that will happen. Similar to my surprise with Hanifin dropping behind Marner and Strome last year, same will likely happen with Chychrun (if he is indeed the first D even taken). Wow, Gauthier falling all the way to 20 is a surprise to me.

Rumor has it it was to take Dylan Larkin. That's more disappointing then missing out on Babcock at the 11th hour.

Ryan O'Reilly lower-body injury; could be out "several weeks"
Derrico replied to Hoss's topic in The Aud Club
D takes so much longer to develop then O that I agree with this. Pray we pick in the top 3 for an elite talent. If not, hopefully draft Tkachuk, Dubois or Nylander. Find a way to trade for that young D. It'll take a lot but Fowler or Theodore type guys are ready for potential top pairing minutes today. Chychurn/Juolevi guys are atleast 3 years away from that. -
Why is Risto not on the top PP unit with Eichel? Come on DD.
-
His offense has fallen over the past three years. Sitting at 13 goals this season as a 20 year old playing junior hockey is pretty disappointing. I remember him being pretty highly spoken of during his draft year.
-
Sam and Jack have had as good of seasons as anyone could have reasonably expected of them (especially Reinhart) and the team still has a losing record. I don't care much about the wins and losses as well as the young core players are playing well, getting big minutes and learning. They've been doing it all season thus far. If we go 5-14 (highly doubtful) but Jack and Sam look the part and we're losing a bunch of one goal games then I'll still be optimistic looking forward.
-
Who knows but heard a scout mention Nylander is further ahead in his development than his brother was at this age. Leafs fans treating the older Nylander like he's the savior so I would be very interested in picking Nylander in that 6-8 range.
-
So if the Ducks don't make the Conference finals is that 4 3rd round picks we own this draft?? Edit, maybe just 3?
-
Johnson is one of the UFA's I would like to sign.
-
Better hope he stops this late season tear. Otherwise he's going to be long gone by our pick at 7.
-
A 3rd next year is only worth a 5th this year? I get the whole time value concept but that sounds off IMO.
-
Yes, yes he did.
-
Thank you.
-
Boedker moving could open some other stuff up.
-
This sounds right to me. The others I would put a lower % chance then you have. I'm expecting next to nothing to happen today but I've still got the thrill of the unknown to ride out for the next 5 hours or so. Come one Tim!! #Girgs4Fowler

It was against the Sharks. Of course we won. We haven't lost to them since 1935. -

Friday night, we will get some more troops for tonight's tilt. Plus we always beat the Sharks so you know it's a nearly guaranteed win. WC, love that you incorporated that picture of the Sabres tail. Just out of curiosity who were the three Sabres all bunched together? -
I almost added that. I just have my doubts he's getting that soul back for next season. Unfortunately I think it's a 'what you see is what you get' for next year.
