Board 8 > NHL Topic 15: Playoff Hangovers and Draft Parties!

(+) Yeah! (+)

Leafs got offered Carter for Kulemin and Kadri and didn't bite.

Also Edmonton offered the 1st pick to Ottawa for Karlsson + 6th a while ago

Murray thankfully said no.

Good thing.

Leafs trade Boston's second round pick in 2012 to Avs for Liles.

Sherman is the biggest piece of crap GM I've ever seen. Worse then Milbury. Trading away Liles, Shattenkirk, and Stewart for one good player and a bunch of crap. Now we're about 25 million under the cap floor, with just about no way to reach it. ****ing idiot.

What the hell Avs. Worst GM ever

--
Lockes is warned

Brewer signed a 4 year deal with Tampa. 16 million.

Smyth deal isn't completed yet. Strong possibility he's going to Flames, but I also heard Winnipeg is the other option as of right now.

EDIT: Also strong rumor that Brian Campbell is going to Columbus.

Here we go.

With the first overall pick, Edmonton selects Ryan Nugent-Hopkins

--
Good Times,
Great Memories

Way to go Avs, really screwing up that team now.

--
ONLY FIVE CAN LADDER.
Sushi, kamikaze, fujiyama, nippon-ichi...

Don't screw this up Avs.

Second overall pick, Avs choose Gabriel Landeskog!! YESS!!

--
Good Times,
Great Memories

Should note that I was referring to the trade, not their pick of Landeskog.

--

Sushi, kamikaze, fujiyama, nippon-ichi...

Huberdeau to Panthers third overall.

--
Good Times,
Great Memories

Larsson to Devils and Strome to the Islanders.

Things are really open now. Sens up next. They really wanted Landeskog or Huberdeau, so they're really disappointed right now. With Strome gone, the next forward on deck is Zibanejad and the next defenseman is Hamilton. Probably going to pick Zibanejad.

EDIT: Oops, forgot Couturier. He's most likely going next.

--

Ack, Zibanejad is a Senator. Would have bet money on Couturier.

Winnipeg Jets (confirmed) select... Mark Sheifele? Who?

--
Good Times,
Great Memories

From the Barrie Colts, whose head coach (or he's somewhere in management) is Dale Hawerchuk, former Jet great. I wish they'd have taken Couterier though... But oh well, Winnipeg Jets it is!!

Not changing this sig until the Winnipeg Blue Bombers win the grey cup. Started Aug. 16/04

nice, Hamilton is ripe for the picking

--
Donny: They posted the next round for the tournament.
Walter: Donny, shut the f- when do we play?

Philly select Sean Couturier. Steal for Flyers. Bruins on deck, followed by Minnesota and Colorado. Hoping Avs get Hamilton!

--

Flyers get away with a huge steal

YES! Wild select Brodin tenth overall.

Avs need to pick Murphy now.

I've watched Siemens play live a few times this year. Smart player, really good positioning.

Actually, screw it. I was hoping for a big, physical defensemen for Colorado for a while now, so I'm glad we got one. I was really hoping for McIllrath last year before Rangers stole him, but from the sounds of it, Siemens is a better player then McIllrath so I'm good with this pick.

--

Thank f*** we drafted some size.

Holy crap Brent Burns to Sharks and Setoguchi to Wild

whoa

I guess i was wrong.


Smyth to Edmonton for Brule and round 5 draft pick
Edit: still on hold. the ****

Filatov for Ottawa's 3rd round 66th pick.

--
Will not change sig unless the Sens win the Stanley Cup. Started 2/19/07

Caps got Brouwer for their first round pick BTW.

Speculation is that this is a pre-emptive move because they won't be able to re-sign Laich. =(

One of their few players who DIDN'T quit on the team is going to be gone, and all the overpaid bums are gonna be sticking around. Classic.

Flames sign Tanguay for 5 years and trade Regehr and Kotalik to Buffalo for some scrubs

Not changing this sig until the Bengals, Bills and Lions win the Super Bowl (10/10/10)
The most American Canadian on Board 8

Ok third attempt at the Smyth situation.

Pretty goddamn sure that Smyth to Edmonton for Frazer and a 7th round pick.
Not bad for both teams. Welcome home, Smitty!!!

Carter was the best player on our team and I am very unhappy that we traded him. Richards I am also very sad to see go. They were too of my favorites.

I must admit we got an awful lot back for them. But still, if this was all to sign Bryz, what an awful idea.

--
Warning_Crazy
i am not black turtle as i did not win the guru

Zibanejad, Noesen and Puempel in the first round... not at all what I thought we were going to get, but hopefully they'll be good.

Zibanejad should be able to make the team sometime next season.

--
ND

also, I wanted Jurco and Detroit got him with our pick. he's going to turn into a damn good player for that organization

Hmmmm, not so thrilled with letting Smyth go. He was a BIG producer for the Kings in his years there. I know the theory is that he's old and probably close to the end, but hell, he hasn't shown any signs of that so far...

Smyth is good, but not $6 million good.

--
Currently playing: L.A. Noire

especially when Doughty still needs to be re-signed.

--
ND

Yeah, he's not 6 mil good, but it's great to have him back.We need some leadership. Horcoff is a joke.

"Defenceman Kevin Bieksa has signed a new five-year, $23 million contract with the Vancouver Canucks."

$4.6 per, not bad. He definitely would have gotten more going the UFA route, so good to see that he wants to keep it going in Vancouver.

--
ND

also Maxim Lapierre signed a two-year, $2M deal. good sign.

--
ND

ok I am officially bored

this is lame, during the season I don't have nearly enough free time, and during the off-season I have entirely too much

hockey games need to be half as long, but the season should go year-round

this would be optimal for me, therefore it is exactly what they should do

"Florida still needs to add more than $20 million in payroll to reach the salary floor next year."

really going bare bones here. hope tallon can pick up some young guys or some one-year vets to fill that space.

surely theres some ridiculously overpriced terrible contract out there that somebody would give florida a draft pick or a prospect for taking off their hands
