Saying you don't necessarily get that franchise #1 guy in a draft, sometimes who have nothing, and you get nothing.
- Boosinicka

Yup........ that is why all this talk of getting top draft picks leads you to the Stanley Cup is just horse poop

Yes, the odds of drafting top line talent is higher, but it is no sure thing, by a long shot

The truly sad thing is Eberle and Karlsson were both drafted well after Luke Schenn.
- stormeyAlterEgo

If I'm not mistaken, Leafs passed on Lucic twice




so did half the league though - his back/neck/shoulder issue was a major concern for scouts. All good so far, but will likley shorten his career quite a bit.

still

really?

Yeah but what about:

Gomez: 7.4 million
Heatley: 7.5 million
Redden: 6.5 million
Bouwmeester: 6.7 million

You should probably ban him. He's mocking you....Howard would never put up with that.
- stormeyAlterEgo

Howard bans anybody who disagrees with his trolling friends when they come in here.

Camelleri's not a center

HE'S WHATEVBER I TELL HIM TO BE DAMMIT

(frank) it.. i give up.. why make a point at all

i'm having bacon tonight.. right after the gym.. washed down with alot of beer

The only thing that I would blame Burke on is keeping Wilson too long, and giving Phaneuf the Captiancy
- faceto27

I'm still on the fence on that one....but leadership is required in the dressing room for a proper structured rebuild and Dion is a mouthy alpha male....but the C should have been earned....in earnest....so I agree....and I also take exception to not having a vet G this year

Yeah but what about:

Gomez: 7.4 million
Heatley: 7.5 million
Redden: 6.5 million
Bouwmeester: 6.7 million
- leafs93

2 of those got their money from the Rangers so doesn't count

I just had a steak - no bacon on game day

And I'm pretty sure the Rangers tried to trade for the other 2 when they were on the market.

First thing I would do is send Gomez down to the minors free up that cap space.

Komi has a NMC.

Thata boy......... stick to that diet

Would you trade our first round pick in 2013 for say, Jordan Eberle??
