ek tweeting malkin to toronto is a possibility. "SERIOUSLY from a SOURCE."
- hammarby31

other sources are talking about it too. makes sense, from what i gather malkin is much maligned in pitt.

I'm telling you that I think Nodl is going to be a solid NHL Winger with 20 goal potential at the high end, and is a much better player than Wellwood.
- MJL

Agreed. Wellwood offensive upside is very miniscule. Nodl has good offensive skill, just slow developing it.

As a Stars fans, I'm not really thrilled with this pick.
- mochoson

I don't like the pick, either. Pierre's hype aside, I think he ends up being a borderline NHL player.

how does glen sather still have a job?

Yea, Capgeek. Look at what the players who were drafted in that spot got last year. Although some of them still haven't signed.
- MJL

Well I know that!

Cant play in the A. He'll go back to Drummondville, score his 100 points, and play in the WJC again.
- mochoson

You have to be 20 years old for the AHL, correct?

Stamkos, enough said
- tjp2033

I wish

Any chance that Sather trades the pick to the Flyers for Shelley?

I don't think Toronto has the players and prospects to try and get Malkin.

schenn, kulemin, 25 and 30 would get ya close

R.I.P. Derek Boogaard. Nice standing O.

i've never heard of jt miller until just now. i hate his guts.

I wish
- Scottie Upshall

haha me too. They have to have a plan to get something else. Unless they expect Giroux and JVR to take the world over next year.

Yes, as long as the player is affiliated with a Canadian major junior team. The rule doesn't apply to Euro picks or NCAA guys who turn pro early.

Ok. Toronto would have to trade their starting 5 but ok

Nodl's already proven he belongs in the NHL in some capacity.

Wellwood's a minor leaguer.

- bmeltzer

It remains to be seen. It could end up paying off HUGE.

I just dont think he was BPA. He's a 25-30 range guy in this draft imo. Upside his huge. But he's at least 3 years away and has a ton of question marks.

I agree they need another top offensive player to compete next year goal wise.

Why is JT Miller wearing his helmet to the draft???

Oh, that's his hair. My bad.
