CBJ is also a dumb franchise...

LOL CBJ.

I agree - Auston seems like a good guy. I wish he was going to a team I like. I'll still be rooting for him.

Its a good pick for them, but trade down...

Congrats pulujajarvi you career is going to a state of limbo and stagnation in Edmonton. Enjoy!

I acctually think Edmonton will be out of the pit at start of season. If there ever was a player that had the chance to break Gretzkys records it is mcdavid. The amount of forward talent he will play with. .. Jesus... AND the nhl are shrinking the goalies gear for the start of his career

Rumors were they were trying to. Apparently no one wanted to come up bad enough. But yes, trade down.

They only want big players. Actual skill is a secondary concern.

If this was the 1980's I agree with you. But not in this league in this time. Dead puck era sadly. League just does not want stars to be able to play and score.

I agree that the odds say that they should soon break the trend but with all the chances they've had. I'll believe it when I see it

Bout time somebody gives props to the Pens

Finally the Pens get congratulated.

No one will ever come within 75 points of Gretzky's single season point record. No one will come close to his goals, assists, total points, Hart trophy's, basically any of his awards. They are some of the most untouchable records in any sport.

Well at least now we can end the Fleury for the #6 nonsense.

Martox got you guys

So much for MAF to Calgary. Dreger saying they got Elliott.
