Regarding Shea Weber....on what (frank)in planet is 20 goals 31 assists 51 points a dramatic drop off for a dman

Sometimes, no check that, most times, you numbers boys can't see the forest for the trees.

What was his zone starts?
Who was his defensive partner?
What was his quality of competition?

It's so confusing sometimes. A 20 goal 50 point d man can't just be considered really, really good. You gotta dig all the way until you find something that tells you otherwise

Hey Mr. T,

What's your opinion if the Flames went "Garth Snow" and offered Columbus 6, 35, 54, & 56 for the 3rd overall pick? Is there any change they bite? They only have 3 picks in the entire draft, might be tempting for them, and then the Flames could snag Pulllllallriviiie

Considering they didn't bite when it was only Ryan Murray, I doubt the bite when it's Jesse Puljujarvi.

Is there any truth to the rumor that the Flames offered Bennett in a package for Matt Murray? Seems incredibly stupid

Fair enough....I just think it's crazy that C-bus only has 3 picks in the entire draft. How can you rebuild a team like that? Not only that but I believe Snow offered 4, 34, 60ish and some change. Where as the Flames could offer 6, 34 and 2 picks in the 50's as well as some change....so they would get 2 picks better than that 60ish pick from Snow. I don't think it's that crazy.

Don't remember. I do remember laughing at the thought of Bennett being moved for a goalie

According to 2 sites they have all of their own picks in rounds 1-3 and 6-7.

Not like those 6th and 7th round picks are going to change much, but could be low line plugs down the road at least.

if clbs is looking to move the pick, value-wise, I think the offer of 6, 35, 54 & 56 is strong.

I have no idea what the jackets’ top needs are, but that swap seems at least worth considering to me.

I can't see the Blue Jackets passing on him. But a trade like that would be awesome if it went down. Still though, three low picks to move down three spots......I dunno if it's worth it.

The leafs asked Columbus for #8, #34 and #38 for #4 last year.

But yeah, a lot depends on how high the jackets are on JP.

Others include, Datsyuk, Zetterberg, Halak, Elliott, Rinne, Palat, Byfuglien, Mark Stone etc. Odds are still that you draft a player nobody will see play a live hockey game. But the scouting is getting better.

Tanner: Why are you the only one who knows how underrated Josh Manson and how overrated Cam Fowler is? Can you become the Ducks' blogger please? My life would be better.

It's like the lottery. You just need a ticket to have a chance to win.
