You guys want a goalie and one to build around for the future. Anton Khudobin I think could be had from Carolina.:

I would try get him, but I wouldn't be prepared to say the goaltender search is done after him. He's a guy I'd give a chance to though.

What ever happened to Garner...did he quit?
- OilHorse

He's just pissy because the oilers aren't doing well. He'll be back blogging regularly if the oil ever start winning....

True, I would give a lot of guys a chance. But Khubodin is one I'd be targeting right now. Has done well out of the Boston system.

And how has Homer done for you lately?
- Jeropotato


Hey I am not being a jerk, just suggesting Khudobin, I got him in a keeper and would love to have him start in Edmonton. I am a true fan of the NHL, not just the Flyers and I happen to really like your team. Hope that is okay with you guys.
As for Homer, he is spontaneous but most of the bad stuff in on Snyder, ie Bryz
The team is actually doing quite well under Berube.

Interesting order especially the top-4.

First time I've seen Sam Bennet as number 1. Haven't seen him play to comment.

I've said myself that Ekblad wasn't outstanding (neither was the entire Team Canada) at the WJHC. I did like Reinharts hockey sense and 2 way play. Not a flashy guy though.

Leon Draisatl wasn't great either but still like the size down the middle there. Wouldn't mind drafting him.

Bennett is a strange pick for #1 in my opinion. I've only seen a couple games of his, and I've gotten the impression that his is a similar story to that of Reinhart (not flashy, but solid).

Draisaitl wasn't playing half the time He had 52 penalty minutes in the 6 games!

Either way, if we keep the pick it looks like there are options to fill a hole whether it be ekblad, draisatl, reinhart, Bennet. I think we will be 4th when all is said and done.

Yup! Honestly, they'll be in junior for at least a year regardless of who we pick. Looking further down their list there are a few gems that seem oddly low rated.

If we're lucky enough to pass Calgary and Florida/NYI, I wonder whether that opens MacT up to trading the pick.

Unless Ekblad also fell to 4th.

Certainly in my mind trading down is the way to go.

In my opinion teams that trade their 1st + an asset to get a higher 1st often give up too much.

Once you trade down, you additionally have the option to trade out.
