Yurov will be a steal & better than Fiala whom they traded.

It's hard for me to understand you through the tears I guess.

I agree, but you also need to pick your spots.

I have no idea who any of these kids are. I’ve literally never heard this kids name before. Did I want them to take a D or C? Sure. Also wanted to move Miller for picks, Garland, Myers, OEL, Demko or whoever to actually rebuild. I’m sure they tried, but Benning’s garbage is still tough to take out.

And if you pick your spots, you end up with nothing to show for anything. That's the danger, sure it's hard to get rid of the trash we have on the roster, that's why you need to start by making a move now and not hope that you can find another deal somewhere down the line. You have huge cap issues and they aren't just going to go away by wishes.

Umm, 8 of the top10 picks are either C or Dmen.

The better of those dried up when we picked.

Obviously sportsnet is 30 behind if Lefty is predicting with accuracy what's happening tonight.

Didn't someone in here want him if Van had traded for a late 1st?

You should relax. Any of these guys including Lek are at least 3 years away from making the team let alone making an impact. Lots can happen in that time.
- TurdFergeson




One of the first things that came to my mind was Brock's contract extension was 3 years. He's now a future top 6 winger which I think we can all agree that we need. He scores goals, always a good attribute. I think he's a pretty safe pick at 15, even if he needs a couple of years to bulk up.

Just because I don't say it again doesn't mean I haven't thought it about you too.

Try not to pretend to be innocent ever.

Huh?

Clearly I wish they had three picks in the first round, like other non-playoff teams and we’re able to address several needs. Didn’t happen.

I’m sure in five years we’ll all look back on this draft and some people will say I told you so, and other will ignore they were wrong. I have no idea which group will be which.
