- Fakepartofme

Buffalo has 5 picks in the fist 2 rounds

Great tank planning from them

Im interested in seeing who picks up Doan for the playoffs
- jimi james

I was thinking same...he would look good on a team like Isles..great leadership for a young group..

- Lucas Neilson

Well if this skid has proven one thing....which I have been saying for over a year and a half.
Randy Carlyle wasnt the problem.


Oh and Fack Healy.

Ahhh now now.
That would have been your response to anyone else who would have made such a claim.

Grrrrrrr.

I said usually only two to three players make a big impact each year from the draft, some drafts none.

People talk about all these pick being great but the fact is, most will be just average NHL'ers. Going by history of the drafts Lucas.

Yeah but hte more picks you have, the more chances you have to pick a great player.


unless your scouts totally blow. Which is always a possibility.

I have never banned someone with disagreeing with me, never. It was just an opinion about Strome.

Name two drafts that didnt yield an impact player in the past 10 years?

I was watching Kessel last night, I have never seen a player take so long to get to the bench on a line change, effectively removing a player from the play for quite a bit, has to stop, that is just laziness that is not being corrected and never will.
- LeafMan

kessel has skill.. no question.. but no drive.. no determination

and i bet by the end of the contract he'll be so out of shape he will be generally ineffective

trade him now while the value is high.. he is a poor example for the younger guys.. BIG TIME

- Pecafan Fan

Oh yeah, the more picks the better chance but it is so slim to hit that home run.

32 games left. I'm placing my bet on a 10-20-2 record the rest of the way. Giving the Leafs 70 points, which should be good enough for a top 5 pick.

I wasnt implying you would ban anyone for disagreeing with you.

If the leafs are serious about moving Pa-neuf and Kessel...they have to do it before the deadline. I know, moving them at the draft may yield a better return.
But if moving them is the plan....then no sense waisting away a high pick, trade them now and let the team sink......err sink more.

I see we moved up a spot - into Zacha territory ...in the 9 hole, Sens got what 3 games in hand so its more so the 8 hole now

Off hand, I don't know I would have to look it up but there have been some awful drafts. The last ten years, hmmmm.
