Glad to see you have no brain in your head you're an awful troll, crawl back into your hole and leave our page

Wasn't actually trying to troll you guys at all. Have always respected the Devils. Just don't like Subban at all. You guys did steal him from the Preds but there is a reason why.

I'll leave and that's fine. Wasn't trying to troll at all, but will always defend.

Patrick Moynihan at 158 seems like a pretty good value pick, lots of the USNTDP guys were all quoted saying he's the most underrated player on their team. Might be my favorite pick of the today
- vlongo4419

Yes I like this pick as well.

Nikola Pasic at 189, with our final pick, love this pick a lot. Last 2 picks have been very good value! Ending the draft on a good note in my book!

I'll take it.

So then.. do we put Greene with Subban? Smith with Vatanen? Butcher with Severson? Carrick and Mueller as extras? Wouldn't be a terrible thing. It might be best to balance out the minutes a bit so Greene and Vats don't get too worn down.

comments in the 200s.. it's been a while.

Where would you guys rank Subban in terms of overall dman and offensive dman? curious.

It's kind of amazing that in 3 years we've gained a top line LW, 1a/1b centers, a seemingly solid young goalie, and now an actual top-pairing dman, with another very good dman in Vatanen still on board. Go back one more year and we're talking about adding a top 6 24y/o RW in Palmieri. Of course there was some lotto luck involved, but still.

The fact that only.. 5 or 6 of those guys are still in the league says it all. Henrique, Zajac, Greene, Larsson, Severson.. and maybe Jo? Bless them. Bless them all.

McLeod was our award.. after all that.

How does everyone feel about the Leafs and Hurricanes deal ? I really hope that wasnt only move needed to get them out of the woods with cap troubles.

Did it seem like anyone really got taken advantage as badly as they should have for their abuse of the cap ?

A first round pick is solid but its top ten protected and the Leafs should be good if allowed to resign their players.

JT Miller is anothrr one yeah he is a decent player but he should of been a sweetener why are they getting such good value on their cap relief of is it not as good as it might seem ? I really thought some of these teams where going ti be (frank)ed and losing good players to teams with ample cap and I am feeling that these cap strapped teams have gotten off pretty easy so far no ?

Tootoo was a class act for us. Tiny guy with a world of heart and just fearless. I remember the poop kicking it took from reaves but he didnt complain or back down jist went to work.

Did anyone else get a little fired up watching the beating the boys let Mikey Mcleod get against some plug on the panthers. I mean props for standing up for yourself kid but you did nothing wrong and we let a first rounder get throttled it was almost sickening the way he ate shots but still hung in there. That to me summed up the entire season.

Loved when Nico stood up to Brouwer when he shoved Blackwood but again how do you let a guy do that to youre goalie for free pretty much and why is it up to Nico and other skill guys to do the standing up lol be nice to not see guys like Rupp and Brouwer be allowed to walk into the crease and shove our goalies lol

I dont know I could very well be in the minority here but you let someone walk all over you once they will do it forever but you start pushing back and sayung no it will eventually stop when teams and players start to learn our crease isnt a crease you will be alot to storm or ligering around near.

Its hard to win when you lack skill but its even harder when you are intimidated by youre apponent and judging by the amount of times i watched heads go straight down and turn away I would say we are a pretty intimidated squad.

It’s a legit concern but its hard to complain with how improved this team has been in the last few years. I mean we’ve lost an assload of games but the roster is young, fast and skilled.

Adding some toughness and balance things out should be a lot easier then adding guys like Taylor Hall and PK Subban. Trust Ray Ray. And be thankful for good days like this.

I don’t even know what to say to this.

Doomed?

I’d like to sign Corey Perry or another rugged winger for the top 6, but I think we will be OK.

I agree and I think Subban brings some nasty and wont be pushed around.

I mentioned it before that I would love to see Reaves added knowing he is an upgrade on Gabriel and we wont necessarily be competing right away so it wont hurt to dress a guy like that for a year or two till some of the lighter players have confidence doing what they do.

I would also love Tuch and Cernak but I doubt Tampa would move him with him being cheap talent apposed to the expensive talent they will look to out first ( Miller )
