Depends. If it's somebody like Veleno i'm gonna be annoyed. If it's somebody Ryan Merkley I might just step in front ofan NJ transit train.

They brought him up on Sirius this morning and basically said, Rangers should take him at 28 and I honestly think if we draft with all 3 firsts, they will. High risk/high reward pick and with your 3rd first i'd do it. Give the kid some time to grow up and then see what happens. Otherwise it's not like we haven't drafted bad in the first before

The pendulum has swung way to far the other way on Tkachuk. He's still a damn good player.

I just want a good player. If they take Tkachuk I will root for him until it is determined he sucks.

This first round could be as loaded as 2003. Definitely don’t want to be the team holding Steve Bernier or Hugh Jessiman at the end.

I think I tried to block it out.

I also wasn't following quite as close as I do now. I was a junior in HS.

Best Swede draft class ever imo - hopefully we get 2 or 4 in the top101...

What do you think of Lundestrom? Not a lot of buzz around him right now, but there was a time when he was viewed as a potentially top-end prospect.

He was tough to guage in Buffalo during the WJC because he was one of the youngest guys on the team.
