This was not a shot at the Wolfpack was it X? Let's calm down Garth still has a lot of work to do this offseason. It's not enough to just make lottery picks every year.

Hey i would never take a shot at the Rascals!!! I like that they are here on the boards. I would be very upset if they ever disbanded & left. God knows we need the comic relief!!

And we round the all D draft with Jake Bischoff 5'11'' 178lb, another HS'er.

I would gladly give up the comic relief. It's all up to Charles and Garth. Good start so far to the offseason let's see if they can follow it up.

I'm outta here for the rest of the day, Boating time.. You guys have a great time the rest of the weekend.

Rough weekend to be an non-2012 Isles defensive prospect

Also this,

Corey Pronman ‏@coreypronman
Islanders get Graham. Came into the year as a likely top 60 guy, but wasn't as good as hoped. Off the charts skater.

I'm not sure about drafting all D. I would have liked to see a forward or two. Well let's see how it all plays out. Way to soon to tell.

Snow wants Smyth or Doan

To me it says that they either think a good number of our current forward prospects are going to be ready either this season or the next. I could see any of Strome, Nelson, Kabanov, Sundstrom, Persson, Cizikas, Ullstrom making the jump either this season or the next.

- Mr.Black

Source? No thanks on Smyth, and I can't see Maloney trading his captain.

Doan is not going anywhere... Smyth.. havent we been down that road before?

I would hope many of these guys are ready this season or next. They should not be rushed by next year and should be ready to go.

If you want to laugh...look at #5 in The Scouting Report's Pre-season rankings

Nick Ebert...who is now Mr. Irrelevant, going dead last in the draft to LA. Hell of a drop.

I think we need to draft more defensemen next year

Are we going to have to see Smyth crying again leaving the Oilers for a second time? Even if the Isles had interest no way Smyth comes here again.

Gotta go for the day, but I'm fairly certain Doan is an UFA.

He is, I should have said let him go. My guess is he'll be re-signed by July 1st, or very shortly after.

He's still not leaving AZ

Some of the IPB posters are not happy with the all D draft. Saying it's hard to believe the best possible player was on D every time. Time will tell if Snow and company were right. Still like to see a bold move this offense especially since we seem to have enough prospects.

The Isles drafted Bischoff.... Wolfpack in the house. Should we trade for Nash?

Well this is amazing. Isle's actually drafted 3 guys off my wish list.

Reinhart, (although not my #1 choice) still a good choice. I think he'll prove his skeptics wrong with his physical game.

Pelech & Somerby.

I like Somerby for shear size alone. The kid is gonna grow to massive proportions when he fills out.

I would have liked Thrower to but 3 "D" in 7 rds aint bad.

I say No. The asking price is astronomical.
