spoke to some canucks fans who would have liked nino and the 15th better than just the 9th. I like nino and I think he game can translate but we all know he is a brat. I would have like more in return but Clutterbuck will be a great fit on this team. also I love pulock as well someone who really stood out to me when I started researching this draft...all and all it was a good day I think...

If I'm Van I would have taken the Isles deal. Lots of pressure on their pick.

Can we package them all for an actual NHL goalie?

As if the NHL draft did not kill me enough, the Isles have to add more goalies.

You get a previous top five pick and a 15 pick. IDK how he said no to that.

Why take 2 goalies after signing one yesterday?

What the (frank)?

Seems like Isles scouts only scouted one team for later picks... Last 3 picks were all on same team together. 2 of them are goalies

Cheaper not to have scouts all over the place.

They seem to be part of the old guard. You are not allowed to say no to them. How else do you explain the Gomez trade or teams passing on Parise for the Devils to take?

Just watched Garth Snow and his table chat after the Subban pick. Garth blew a giant chewing gum bubble. Wall to wall excitement #isles

As an Isles fan, I have no idea how you can love FA day? Same goes for the Draft, except for the JT draft.

Cammaratta (sp) is a smallish center who does nothing but score. Scouts say his size is what kept him out of the 1st round. Martin St.Louis ring a bell? Hopefully...
- potvin05

I'm loving this pick. He played with MacKinnon at Shattuck's and out scored him 170 to 101.

True... I don't hate Nino.

I love Clutterbuck..... was Nino for Clutterbuck and a third a good deal.

Not what I was expecting... but we have to live with it now.

Isles fans will love Clutterbuck.

Clutterbuck, Martin, Cizikas!!!

Should be fun to watch.

Look how Boston beat Pittsburgh... bang and crash!!!
- jimmc7722

There's a lot of "If's" in this equation right now. A 2nd round pick instead of 3rd(duh) would have made this easier to accept in the short term, barring Nino putting up 70pts/yr. If CC resigns end of season, i think the overpayment for him wont sting as much. Think his history with JT is great and Minny folks say he's a character guy - didn't see much personality in Nino but he was a 1st round pick...never want to give that away for lesser value....it took a lot of beatings to earn that draft spot...

I hope Snow has a plan A and then about 2 or 3 more plans if that fails.
