And if the players think game prep starts at 5pm on the day of the game I think we know why we are an awful team

lol nice. That said I didn't realise Dubas was so young! Dubas and Chayka are both analytics kids and are the two youngest GMs interestingly. Arizona I kind of understand, but it is interesting how a traditional old school hockey market has given the control to the analytics kid.

Honestly, these guys are adults and paid a fortune. They shouldn't need a curfew to be professionals. Why do most people not stay up till 6am when they have work the next day? The reasoning is no different.

I assume by now word has gone out that he will be looking for x amount as a minimum to even consider offers. If Jason doesn't think he is worth x, then why bother talking to him?

I would be quite tempted to sign Orpik to a 1 (although i think it would take 2) year deal for a couple of million. Have him mentor some of the young defence

This might be the most boring draft of all time. There were only like two trades in total

So who are the best guys left available?

Exciting trade

I wonder if the off the board picks are causing the lack of trades

Crickets...

We're on pick 15 and no trades. Is this one of the quietest drafts?

Regardless of your thoughts on Lehner, he would be better.

Ward has been crap for the last 3 years. Why would we want him?

Well trading would get you the guy now, rather than in 2-3 years

So no big trades gonna happen today? After all the talk

huh... odd pick

5.5 million salary dump

The Washington Capitals have acquired a second round pick, 47th-overall from the Colorado Avalanche in the 2018 NHL Draft in exchange for defenseman Brooks Orpik and Philipp Grubauer.

McGuire says Jeff Skinner is going West, says a deal is close to done. He adds Canes expect to have three 1st RD picks tonight, one would come from a Skinner deal and one would come from a Hanifin deal.

In my mind he is either Erik Johnsson, solid but disappointing, or Nick Lidstrom, one of the greatest of all time. There is no middle ground.

I like how humble Dahlin seems in interviews. Seems like a guy who focuses on hockey over fame
