2015 was a pretty good draft year, it's a shame that we didn't keep all the picks we had that year, we really could have loaded up.

That's what happens when you have a dumbass GM ...

When he (frank)ed up in 2014 i wanted him gone the second he picked Lemieux

I was hot as hell that day

I would put that draft up against any draft honestly.

The best goalie on the planet.


Edit: I forgot to Put Russ Courtnall in there too.

Can't go back I know, but a lot of mistakes made throughout. But things can turn around with this draft and off-season if done right.

It’s my favorites honestly.

79 would’ve been it had Gretzky been included. The Rockies may never have moved to NJ had he been apart of it.

Yeah well it wasn’t by me.

You know how I feel about that season. Johnny Mucks bringing in the good fellas club.

I did watch the Fuhr documentary and Fuhr did mention he thought he’d have in Buffalo longer.

From what I've seen of '70s and '80s goaltending highlights, it seems like that happened every night.

The Los Angeles Rams have agreed to trade wide receiver Brandin Cooks to the Houston Texans, sources told ESPN on Thursday.

The Texans will send a 2020 second-round draft pick (No. 57 overall) to the Rams for Cooks and a 2022 fourth-round pick, sources said.
