Well at least the Flyers didn't do anything stupid. That makes them winners.

I'm sure Snow will do wonders with all of these picks he's getting...

Then sign him to a 15 year deal circumventing the cap.

Yeah. I think its safe to say he's on board with letting the young guys develop. He's had ample opportunities to break the young core up. He's stayed the course though.

Is Okposo the only good player remaining on the Islanders that can still play?

Franz Nilsson is solid. Josh bailey is decent. Travis Hamonic is good

You mean this season? Yes. I assume Tavares comes back next year fit as a fiddle and ready for love.

Wait until the offseason when Homer resigns Kimmo to another year for 6.5M and sign Heatley and Parros to 4 year contracts.

I almost feel bad for islanders` fans.. That is a pretty rough return depending on what that prospectiis.

Off the top of anyone's head, do you remember what the details of the Moulson/Vanek trade was?

I'm on my phone and don't feel like looking it up

So Holmgren paid more for MacDonald, than the Habs paid for Vanek. Cool!

Coots and Schenn and Laughton and the 1st-rounder(s) are still here... can't be mad about any of that.

A-Mac was predictable and getting something back for Mez was a minor miracle... not a bad TDL for them.
