Oilers and Jackets reportedly want to trade down. Who wants to come up? And at what price?


It's shaping up to be a wild draft...and as I type that, I hear thunder rumbling...

@StapeNewsday: #Isles GM Garth Snow working hard to acquire a veteran D this weekend here in Pitt.

While he's at it he should be looking for a top 6 forward too...

I'd love to if we're not paying an absurd amount to do so.

Seems to be at least partially the case. People are pointing to character issues. I can't remember who it was (and I'm too lazy to go back and look) but one of the Canadian media guys said that outside of EDM and CBJ he knows of 2 other GM's that wouldn't take Nail with the first overall.

Character and concussions could be an issue. Very interesting if he falls to the 4th pick.

As of this very minute! It hit me like a ton of bricks. I am 100% convinced that if we keep #4 and Murray is available. WE WONT PICK HIM!

If the Isles do trade up and take Nail does this mean Brooklyn is a good bet to happen or nothing to do with it?

Maybe...here is a scenario for you...Since Phoenix likes Gagner why not trade Strome and the #1 for Yandle?

Why trade our fifth overall pick only to draft another fifth overall pick that would be a year behind?

I am convinced Murray is going to Oilers.. if not first.. then 3rd.
