Just finished watching the Russia, US game, interesting. Never was a fan of Wilson, except when he was in Toronto...

If I was trading for one of the State of Florida's third over all bust I would take the other one.

Elite or fat & lazy, take your pick.

Compared to who exactly? You are talking about a #1C in the NHL...

I'd say the real concern has to be his heart problems last summer. He had held out the previous summer, then came in and dominated. This past offseason he has these strange heart palpitations preventing him from really pushing his workouts? Even if this is a temporary thing related to some "vitamins" he was taking, you have to wonder what other "vitamins" or what lengths he would go to if you're looking at the character of a person; even if he's a local boy.

I personally think sending him to Nashville for Seth Jones is the move to make by Jarmo and kinda hope EK's lead is accurate for once.

agreed. that team could really use a character like burrows for the playoffs, or a Hammer+ package to try and pry him away from Miami.

As much as I think you can't trade the Sedins because of what they mean to the community, Burrows is likely viewed the same by management AT THIS TIME, and likely at this years' trade deadline. I think he's moved at next year's deadline when we are WAY out of a playoff spot.

We have to draft and develop our own, to many people are impatient.

Matt duchane should have gone 2nd overall. ........
Hedman advanced stats are garbage, hes better then he should be. ......
He hasn't won a Norris or a heart yet so he must be a bust.
D man actually peek at 24 so statistically he's past his prime. .......



Sorry that's just some tanner logic

I think Vantel is referring to Alexandr Svitov the third overall pick from 98, I think that he is a little old for us though. ..

Can't believe a kid with his size, speed and skill made it to 15 or whatever he was taken at.

Gunbrandson was 3rd overall in 2010, as I mentioned in the first place

I'll admit I haven't really watched many Wild games since the first month of the year but from the replays ive seen he's got a great shot, decent hands and a nose for the net. The problem is he's tiny, like maybe the shortest dman in the league. IDK, Ryan Ellis is the only I can think of who might be shorter. And if there's one position you dont want a short player is a top 4 D. If he was a 5th Dman and PP specialist, I would happily take him. To use him in a greater capacity than that and I'd want to see more before I decide.

That being said, if they wanted to take Jensen and Biega/Weber/Bart/Sbisa then i'm totally cool with that.

I don't see him as a bust at all. He's just a defensive d-man and doesn't get points. Like Hjarmalsson, I would love to have a young guy with that much shut-down upside.
