dudacek Posted June 24, 2017 Report Share Posted June 24, 2017 Fast, relentless forwards, small puck-moving defencemen...and not a single Canadian or CHL player. Dooooommmeeedddd.....! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dejeanerret Posted June 24, 2017 Report Share Posted June 24, 2017 (edited) I'm trusting Bots in this process. Based on the results in Pitt seems he might know what he's doing. I'm on board with drafting the best player available with highest upside. With Bots drafting D so late I'm more convinced than ever Kane is going to get traded for a Dman. I would prefer obtaining a solid NHL ready player over a guy a few years away anyways. Bots dropped a hint yesterday saying one of his best trades in Pitt was the Kessel deal and it didn't happen till July 1st when FA started. To me that says he's not going to panic and look for best available deal. If Kane has more value on 7/1 when some team realizes they may not be getting the player they want in FA cuz he's signed with another team I'm cool with that. 17 and 18 year old kids get taller and gain weight as they get older. In 3 years I may think differently but right now I'm excited to have Bots and PHou choosing our players of the future.

LGR4GM Posted June 24, 2017 Report Share Posted June 24, 2017 We could be the Montreal Canadians... they have no offense and yet have drafted 4 defenders with 6 picks. If we need a trade partner in 3 years we will know who to call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

inkman Posted June 24, 2017 Report Share Posted June 24, 2017 It's kind of a neat listen on most Saturdays, TBH. And lots of people have kids in sports. Wait until your toddler is on the Fairport High Calf-Wrestling team. So the third round begins. Who was my charity bet regarding Estephan with? Was it Derrico? I've been looking for the sport where my god given talents can flourish. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derrico Posted June 24, 2017 Report Share Posted June 24, 2017 I'm trying but it won't take my card. Is it because it's a US card? I can always mail a check to them, but they'll just misspell it. No worries. If it won't go through local one is great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eleven Posted June 24, 2017 Report Share Posted June 24, 2017 Do you mind going with Sick kids in Toronto. Done. No worries. If it won't go through local one is great. No, I finally got through. The ZIP code was another challenge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derrico Posted June 26, 2017 Report Share Posted June 26, 2017 Looks like one hell of a hospital. My donation was to the genetic diseases division. Unfortunately my nephew spent a couple of months there. Unbelievable staff and facilities. All is good with him now. Thanks again. These bets have a much better outcome then one of us having to use a pi equivalent avatar all summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apuszczalowski Posted June 28, 2017 Report Share Posted June 28, 2017 Leafs are going to get Liljegren. Bas&*^rds for those of tou that are in love with him, he was just drafted by the Niagara Icedogs in the OHL import draft, so if he is sent back to juniors he will be playing in St Catharines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
