Yeah but he ended up being a bust. He isn't doing anything with Atlanta.

Oh yeah? Good trade for you then.

Wow. Didn't expect this.

Ranked 18th by tsn. That's a bit of a drop. But if you think about it, there were a lot of reaches by other teams. I like the pick. Could be a hell of a steal.

I honestly don't like it. I think the team needed to go with a winger. At least the kid looks thrilled to be selected by the champs. But In Shero I Trust.

Good chatting with you Tim. Only wish there would have been more trades, and it would've been shorter. Oh well. Pronger got dealt.

Yeah that was nice post padding CC. Maybe we'll do it again tomorrow. :lol:

Could be more trades then.

I think 3. I don't think it's on tv though. At least here in the states.

Was at the Brewer game tonight so I haven't seen much of anything from this draft other than Tavares going to NY and Pronger getting traded. To be honest, I know so little about hockey prospects, I can't tell you my thoughts on the Hawks pick. Tomorrow I'll look into this Olsen guy some more and see what I can figure out about the guy.

But wow did Philly get schooled in that Pronger deal. Gave up a ton for a corpse.

The Florida Panthers have traded defenceman Jay Bouwmeester's rights to the Calgary Flames for defenceamn Jordan Leopold and a third round pick.

Details to follow.

per tsn.

well that's an interesting start to day 2

Yes it is. If you have NHL Network CC, the draft is on that channel.

Yeah I got it, 2nd round moves much faster. Ha.

Yeah, much better. I hate Nashville and Detroit.

The Pens took Ulf's son. YESSSSSS. Hopefully he will be a badass like his dad.

At least the Panthers got something for Bouwmeester, and a pretty good D-man for him.

As far as Olsen, pretty much fits the biggest need for the Hawks along the blue line. Pirri is an interesting pick since the Hawks just resigned Bolland yesterday.
