It's ok Couture, Kane, and Tavares are the future for the sharks
- 2Real


They have a shot at Tavares, but I think he stays on the East Coast.

That seems very terrible.

After what he just did this past year, and given his contract, Ghost should be up near the top of the untouchable list after Provorov, Frost, and Couturier.

- jmatchett383

I thought that the appearance of Ghost's name on that list would shroud it with a suggestion of improbability.

Not bad, but I have a feeling Hextall would take Lundestrom or Kaut, or maybe even Samuelsson over Bokk

Kjell’s boy can skate, unlike his old man. He’s 6’4, 200+, has good skills, plays a smart game and uses his size to his advantage. Probably not the guy I’d take at 19, but if they ended up with a pick a few spots back, I’d be fine with him.

If I was Hextall I would of chose different too, but I just went for the off the board hail mary. If drafts went by rankings it would be very easy to do a mock draft. My guess is as good as any.

Even I shook my head seeing Berggren not selected in the 1st.

No.... No we wouldn't.

We'd rather keep him. That offer would be about the 4th or 5th option presented for ROR.

Weise for Lucic. Bad player on a bad contract for a decent player on a terrible contract.

It's your typical lose-lose deal.

Islanders officially hire Barry Trotz as head coach that means Lappy will be the next flyer coach if they go on a 30 game losing streak
