I forgot we talked about Fucale, too. Jesus, that was only a few days ago, too, wasn't it? - Jsaquella
Yes, it's very deep can't really for me just narrow it down to a group I like. Morrissey was one I'd like to see more of I know I asked about Ryan Pulock of Brandon before the season even started & was told he has been very good as a developing d-man since they moved him after stating as a forward bit by the injury bug at times this year but still developing nicely on a bad team

Maybe the best strategy is to just sit back and see if any of the picks turn out in the future?
Subban is worth even more in a trade at that bargain price. Great job by Montreal in signing him to a team friendly deal. Have to think 5/$23.5 offer sheet would've got it done:

It's possible...I'd guess it'd be expensive. When they dealt to get the Pitkanen pick, the draft class wasn't considered as deep as this one. - Jsaquella

It is the type of draft to me to move up you will have to over pay big time & you can really just sit tight & still end up very happy.
Columbus if they are smart with 3 first rounders can make out like bandits
I've watched a few of his games for Union when NBC Sportsnet had College games on. He looks tiny, but seems to be a good skater with a good feel for the game. Definitely has skill.
Rundblad is intriguing. He's bounced around now, but the skill set is still there. My guess is, if it comes down to money in Phoenix-either with the NHL or Jamison owning the team, they'd prefer to move Yandle. I think OEL is their untouchable, but that's at a guess. I haven't watched a ton of Coyotes games this "season" - Jsaquella
I would agree OEL would pretty much be untouchable or back to would you trade Coots for him. I think it would be wonderful to get a young guy who can learn from Kimmo. I'm not as convinced as I once was that Kimmo will not be playing in the NHL next year. I believe he will probably go year to year like Lidstrom did with the Wings. If we could ever get another really good puck moving d-man, we could get Kimmo to around 18 minutes/ game, he would be terrific and extremely effective going forward.
I really like Mez's game. However, he is a free agent after next year and has had three pretty tough injuries in the last couple of years - shoulder, back, and achilles. Once, I thought he would be part of the future, now I'm not so sure.
I am hoping the fact they sent Laughton down is a sign they are finally understanding they need to develop patience for their prospects. - ob18
I think Homer has had the patience - he's just had an owner who doesn't. Now that Bryz has become a heavy burden on the cap for the future, perhaps Homer gets some leeway to do things his way without interference.
(The preceding is pure speculation. Any resemblance to the truth is coincidental.)

For kicks another goalie who is on a mediocre team is Spencer Martin of the Mississauga Steelheads but gets pretty good praise

I think Kimmo's 50-50. Even if he does return, I try to get him on a one year deal for about half of his current hit, and if he plays well talk to him about an extension mid-season. It would be ideal to slot him as the second pair guy,
and limit his ice time a bit.
The Coyotes are in a weird situation. The ownership is still unsettled, and with the possibility of expansion(Allan Walsh has tweeted it's going to happen) they might not get to move to a great situation anyhow.
I hear ya. Not here to be right or wrong just chew the fat and hang out with a bunch of flyer fans. It was bill board not a bridge too btw! - JoeRussomanno
If you pay me $50, I'll stand out on the road with an Ozzy tee shirt for like, 15 minutes
Got all of that one.
