that's one thing on a very long list....

Quebec will support a team - the supposed ownership group - Quebecor has very deep pockets, and as being a telecommunications and entertainment giant will be an ideal owner - other than the fact that dirty rotten pricck scoundrel Mulroney is chairman of the board.

Yup. Leafs trade their first round pick to the NHL for Matthews.

does anyone think a top 10 pick is moved?

I really dont think it happens

I think it's possible..

Some team that wants a defenseman will move up..

Nope

i could see expansion if only to balance out the two conferences

but who would switch to the west if they do give a team to quebec? thats what i wonder

The Vegas Gases..

What do we get as the sweetener? Otherwise we're giving prosects and picks to do CBJ a favor.
- LifeLongLeafer

nothing.

I don't see it as a favor.

i bet any top 10 pick will be pretty emotional

what would the leafs trade to get up to mid first round?
- Dozzer

#31, #71 and Kapanen to Arizona for #20

but will it move?

I hope Vegas fails hard.. At least you know Quebec will sell out most games.
- Arctic_AARDVARK

Same here.
Not because I wanted Quebec to get a team, but simply because I think Vegas is a horrible place for an NHL team.
It will be full the first year or two....then they'll be giving away tickets.

8 days boys!

is there going to be a gathering outside the ACC like last year?
- MCharisma91

I'll be gathering some beers in my basement to watch the the draft

#31, #71 and Kapanen to Arizona for #20
- winsix

i dont think mcavoy will still be on the board... isnt he slated around 15ish?

#31, #71 and Kapanen to Arizona for #20
- winsix

(quite a) bit of an overpayment imo..

I hope theres no Russian Ultras...
- Arctic_AARDVARK

Id like to see them and the other soccer losers simply mowed down.
Either rubber bullets or real....matters not. What a waste of human beings.

I think they will be ok. Ownership group is loaded. Giving away tickets as in comps are part of the plan. Advertising Weekend trips with free Leaf, Montreal, Calgary, Edmonton and Vancouver games - will bring in customers to spend a bit in Vegas. If will be cheaper to see the Leafs in Vegas than in TO unless you blow it gambling. Way better place for a franchise than Arizona, Carolina.

but will it move?
- senstroll

apparently i am not clever today

so yeah... the norm

Maybe if someone really wants a dman. But I doubt it.

just like someone walking the red carpet with a stiffy.

Not at all.
The tickets to the game would be cheaper...but overall cost wouldnt be.
