Best forward in that draft, (frank)ing Flames lucking out with him and Hamilton.

I was a big WKRP fan as a kid. Not sure if you remember.

Jennifer dating the maintenance man named Steele. The introduction to Nessman.

I like to think a person's name speaks a lot about who they are, my name is Steele.

What is you name?

Les?

(or something like that)

Just an awesome show. (As long as they weren't getting preachy)

Loved that show. Remember that episode well. Great show. Great opening song.

Big Bang Theory copied the joke using Leonard's name instead.

I was crossing my fingers that he was part of the Hamilton deal. Can't handle the 1......9 year old sam bennett.

The 25-year-old Jones posted a 4-5-2 record in 15 games with the Kings last season, posting a .906 save percentage and a 2.25 goals-against average.


DA FAQ he gets a first rounder and a propsect while lack gets a third. Someone explain.

On Cody Hodgson...

I am hearing he may be the #1 target for the Maple Leafs, who believe that Babcock and the OHL experienced crew in Toronto could get him back to the kind of can't miss prospect he once was. However, the Montreal Canadiens are also showing tons of interest and have liked Hodgson since he was in Vancouver. I heard they tried to trade for him when the Sabres picked him up.

I think you are confused. Jones, along with the 13th pick and a high quality prospect were traded for Lucic. Jones didn't get a 1st in return.

I guess, did he get traded again?

Zhukenov drafted by QMJHL team, so hopefully we'll get to see him in NA this year.

edit - ah, I see. I guess there are at least two stupid GM's now...

Still doesn't make Lack worth more than a 3rd, who will be a UFA at the end of the season.

FYI It's clear that advanced stats are starting to creep into how goalies are viewed these days as well. Over the past 2 seasons, here's how the goalies that were traded ranked in save percentage on high quality shots(min 35 games started)

Martin Jones - 1st in the NHL
Cam Talbot - 4th in the NHL
Reto Berra - 9th in the NHL(he was shockingly traded for a 2nd)
Robin Lehner - 34th in the NHL(another sign BUF overpaid)
Eddie Lack - 45th in the NHL

Pending UFA Michael Neuvirth ranks 7th in the NHL so I can see why teams didn't pony up for Lack if they value these stats. Plus Lack is a pending UFA.

Im sure Vancouver, or the team taking him could have signed him before he got traded.

Over at the Sharks board someone posted a chart of adjusted SA% with all the traded/UFA goalies this year. Lack ranked just a hair above Antti Niemi

edit: I evidently don't know my stats

That's probably regular save percentage. But my main point was that there's reason to believe that Lack is a goalie who's only as good as his team's defense is. He does get exposed when teams get high quality chances so maybe that hurt his value. Jones and Talbot thrived when facing high quality shots so perhaps GM's viewed them as having more natural talent and upside than Lack.

I'm only speculating of course.
