Didn't watch Aube Kubel tonight but based on the score I didn't miss much

I watched the first period of Aube Kubels game. Not a strong period for him he had several turnovers

If MacT ever comes back down to earth it would be nice to do business with the Oilers.

I've been watching the Preds game and Seth Jones has been flying. I can't believe he wasn't picked by Colorado when they already had Duchene, O'Reilly, and Stastny.

Man, if we could get Eberle out of them...

Swap Simmonds to LW and put him with Jake and G. Then Put Eberle with Coots and Read.

That is a nice one two punch.

If by all around better player you mean mostly one dimensional scorer, then yes.

What baffles me is that Carolina didn't move up one spot to get Jones. They needed him sooooooooo much more than Lindholm.

They should be. They lost Stastny for nothing and still need defensive help.

Exactly, one dimensional scorer. I'd take Doughty over Kessel any day.

MacKinnon has Hart trophy potential. I would take either one of them, but I wouldn't say Colorado made the wrong decision

that's not a result of drafting mackinon that's poor management by the GM

The only reason I say they should have picked Jones is that they already had three good centers when they picked MacKinnon.

I'd much rather start the deal around BSchenn but with the rumors floating around I hink MacT starts with Coburn and probably wants Laughton too. The guy is nuts.
