if nothing is announced today I think you guys will get a 1st and it will be announced at the draft

When the draft gets closer to #16 if the Oilers aren't happy with what's left on the board that's when it will happen if it's going to.

Gives some of those delusion fans some hope the later it goes that they will still get McDavid for Talbot

CLB may be hoping an offer of Artem Anisimov, Kerby Rychel and No. 8 pick can get No. 3 pick from ARIZ. Jackets then draft Noah Hanifin.

Lucic for Yandle discussions?

doesn't work.

Lucic has a 6 million cap hit, Yandle has a 2.6 million cap hit

If that deal is really being offered, I think the Yotes should take it.

gotcha - I wouldn't do that trade regardless, if he isn't resigned the return will be greater at the deadline

I am hearing a lot of twitter chatter about a rumored Lucic deal to Vancouver for Edler

So, who are you wishing for at the 6th pick on the Devils' board? I have a feeling like one of Strome, Marner or Hanofin will fall to you, with a riser getting picked in the Top 5 ahead of one of those guys. Seems to happen every year.

Canucks GM Jim Benning said they will likely move one of their goalies by tonight or tomorrow.

#Canucks have asked Kevin Bieksa to waive his no-trade clause. Potential list of teams TBD

that makes sense, fills needs for both teams...NYR could somewhat use a player like lucic - wonder if you get the 16th you take bittner

I obviously would be happy with any of those that you listed...I can only speak for myself but if not any of those 3 I'd be happy with Provorov/Barzal/Zacha

When's the draft again?

Thanks, the Bieska being asked to waive thing is out of left field isn't it?

Rangers could definitely use some more heaviness up front, I'm just not sure Lucic would fit in the speed game AV likes.

If the Rangers do move up to 16th I really hope they take the most skilled forward available.

yeah, a little bit, but he only has one more year left on deal, maybe they have no intention of keeping him

Interesting, none the less. What's your opinion of him? Mine's a bit mixed.

If we get the 16th ahead of the draft we need to try and package that to get into the top 10

Might be tough to do though. Devils and Flyers hold numbers 6+7 and are unlikely to trade. Columbus seems intent to hold onto 8. Your best bet may be San Jose at 9 since they are picking high but also have a lot of vets that are in win now mode.
