I mean, with the Oilers passing on Finn and the Leafs picking him up, maybe people know where Schultz is wanting to go, just speculation

Not sure I like the pick either way. Ranked 170 on central scouting... Should've taken Finn with Dansk gone

I actually liked the Staal deal from the Pens perspective. I think the 'Canes gave up too much for him probably just because they can sell more tickets by promoting those two brothers.

I know we need grit with some skill but...

Was really hoping they'd take Finn or Frk.

Sutter not as good as Gagner? Jesus, Allah, Buddha. Really?

Apples/ Oranges.

The Pens did a fantastic job of replacing that role for guy who would have left for nothing and widely known he wanted to play with his brother.
To my mind - it could have been a straight across without the 8th pick but they got that as well.

Good deal for both teams.

Pitt: fully proactive - clearing space, they'll be in the mix on Yandle/ Suter, anyone they want really. They keep on rolling.

I think Pitt got the better of Carolina. That team has some serious defensive depth now.

Must be nice to have a GM that actively pursues deals to make your team better.

Are you telling me Moroz wouldn't have been there at 63 or 91? Seriously? What the (frank) is wrong with them. Oilers need D, but guaranteed Tambellini just sucks Lowe's cock all day and nothing get's done because he doesn't have the balls to make a move

Matt Finn was still there. Was ranked in the top 20-30 by most services. Wtf.

(Frk) I know.

And I wonder if there were any deals on the table at the 11th hour IE the Subban in play talk and it simply didn't work out.

We'll see what Tambo can do between now and July 1st. He needs to find those Lubo for a second round pick type deals. Bloody Hell I hope/ wish Hemsky had more value right now.

I like it so far. Khaira a bit of a wild card, but this is stu's pick.
