Eleven Posted June 23, 2018 Report Share Posted June 23, 2018 (edited) Angus Crookshank? I do t care if it’s Ottawa, that guy needs to be a star Or a Harry Potter character. EDIT: GF just reminded me that Crookshanks is the name of Hermione's cat, so I guess that's why I made the association.

LGR4GM Posted June 23, 2018 Report Share Posted June 23, 2018 They traded their sixth round pick to Toronto for a 6th next Year? Yea what the is this? I guarantee that 6th will be lower. Terrible asset management. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewookie1 Posted June 23, 2018 Report Share Posted June 23, 2018 They traded their sixth round pick to Toronto for a 6th next Year? Maybe Botts just wants to get the hell back to Buffalo with Dahlin quicker? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LGR4GM Posted June 23, 2018 Report Share Posted June 23, 2018 Maybe he just didn't like anybody that was left?That's fine, but you don't trade the first pick of round 6 for a later pick a year from now straight up. That's just bonkers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueBlueGED Posted June 23, 2018 Report Share Posted June 23, 2018 Yea what the ###### is this? I guarantee that 6th will be lower. Terrible asset management. Botterill would rather not pick at all than draft a CHL player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudacek Posted June 23, 2018 Report Share Posted June 23, 2018 They traded their sixth round pick to Toronto for a 6th next Year? All of the left-handed Swedish defencemen were taken. Yea what the ###### is this? I guarantee that 6th will be lower. Terrible asset management. Next years class of obscure Swedish left-handed defenceman is said to be really deep.

That's just bonkers Yes, I agree. I wonder though that if say there wasn't anybody he liked, it may be similar for other GMs, making it difficult to get a deal done.

Next years class of obscure Swedish left-handed defenceman is said to be really deep. Clearly this is the case. No lefty Swedish defenders or righty Finnish defendersYes, I agree.

Yeah that player they get will have a 2.5% Chance of making the NHL VS the 2.6% Chance the player they could have picked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthEbriate Posted June 23, 2018 Report Share Posted June 23, 2018 Wait, wait, wait... Nando Eggenberger went undrafted? We traded a pick for (likely a lower) pick next year... instead of taking a flyer on a guy named Nando Eggenberger? What the only-deal-in-absolutes hell? Other than that, it's good to stack the defensive corps for the entire franchise system, with additional years of control. Hopefully, a couple of them surprise.

Brawndo Posted June 23, 2018 Report Share Posted June 23, 2018 Botterill was asked about the trade and whether or not he did it because he feels next year’s draft is deeper. His response they felt the guys they had rated at the spot would still be available in the 7th and they do now have more assets for next year.

SDS Posted June 23, 2018 Report Share Posted June 23, 2018 Yep; this move stinks. The other way to think about it is that it is an additional asset to make a trade for an NHL player this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
