I feel like Boston is stuck between trying to win now and trying to win later

What happened with Hamilton is odd. Gonna have to wait for that backstory to break.

Two huge picks in the 1st. I can't complain.
- hereticpride

yea really if konecny was their guy giving up a late 2nd is definitely worth it
who says we can't get picks tomorrow for schenn and/or grossman

why are there 31 picks in round two ?

Blackhawks got a compensation pick (54 I think) for not signing Hayes.

Compensatory pick to Chicago for losing Hayes as a free agent

Chicago gets a pick for Hayes going to the Rangers...I think.

So does Travis play LW at all? Flyers post draft email that went out just says RW.

Travis Sanheim✔
@sanheim17

@NHLFlyers weren't happy with one Travis we needed 2, congrats @traviskonecny great pick! #Flyers #NHLDraft

Really good move, that cost them really nothing

Agreed; get your guy and move on

(Yep, I'm posting late on the back-read. Got a wife, folks! Sometimes, I actually talk to her!)

I missed it earlier but curious as to the reaction here on the ryan o reilly deal
- Marc D

He was always gonna get moved, Roy might be good for Grigorenko

Both sides did well for a "shotgun marriage" deal -- if Grigorenko had gone back to the KHL, then the Sabres would have totally wasted a 12th overall pick, and you can't have that

Zadorov is a little immature/young, but he's a good piece to have and could be the best value going forward, with his tools

James Mirtle tweeted at one point that a he talked to a few GMs that had no idea Hamilton was really in play. That's a guy you put on the auction block and get a massive return for

Short list of worst asset management I've ever seen, and I'm not even joking

Somehow, the Bruins took a 40-point, RH-defenseman coming off his ELC and turned him into a pick worse than where he was taken his draft year, where he hadn't played a shift in the NHL, let alone played on a top pairing

Horrible, horrible, horrible, horrible, horrible, horrible deal

When they wake up tomorrow, they're not going to believe they (frank)ing did it

The effing topped the Seguin disaster. They really did.
