Ooh... From Darren Dreger: "Matt Duchene's agent, Pat Brisson had a quick chat with Joe Sakic at the end of 1st round and is now in discussion with David Poile."

Any way I look at it, the Pens made a dumb deal. Reaves is huge and annoying and can skate, but pretty bad at the game of hockey. If protecting Crosby is such an issue then why did the Pens just win back-to-back Cups? #strangedeal

Reaves is pretty much straight goon. He can skate and hit and agitate and fight, but is as unskilled as it gets. Great pick for the Preds.

I was thinking the same about the Coyotes' 28 year old GM.

Josh Norris (apparently he plays with a troll doll)

That kid just trolled us.

The National Scandanavian Hockey League

Brian Burke is looking more and more like an Oompa Loompa.

The Vegas Golden Showers are raining draft picks.

Stop being reasonable! ...Every scouting service had Mittlestadt ranked among the top-10 prospects in this draft. It's not like we did a Bills-eque reach or something. This kid can fly and has skill. That works for me.

More than likely that's why he couldn't do a pull-up... the shoulder was already messed up. ...Wait, we just drafted a kid with busted shoulders?!

I agree. Sam Bennett couldn't do a pull up. Kid just played 2 full NHL seasons (63 points) before his 21st birthday.

Kid can really fly. The league is going to speed and skill over size and grit. The Sabres gotta get on board with that. I like the Mittelstadt pick.

That's my guy! USA! USA! USA!

I like Mittelstadt because he's from 'murica. He's Trump's choice. Ha.

George Glass to Vegas! He hasn't been seen since the early 1970's. (doubt anyone will get the reference)

Congrats. Taking a long time to get there is a good thing. It means you have a life, unlike most of us. :D

I like Mitlelstadt.

Makar it is. No surprises yet.

Good kid, good pick for Philly.

Nico it is! Hope he likes playing boring system hockey in New Jersey. :devil:

I like Nico.

I want to see some wheeling and dealing.

Carrier and Ullmark are dime-a-dozen players. Folks are over-valuing them if they think they're in any way indispensable. Ennis is worth keeping because he has sauce... and drinks chocolate milk with little kids... ;)
