Yes but he wasn’t a Brackett pick so he was more like a 3rd

Was McCann not picked in the 1st round?

You trade a player or you trade a pick.

Here's what I mean. Lefty keeps saying(for years now), Van traded a 1st in the Gudbranson trade. If we are to use that logic, then Van received a 1st round pick(5thoa) in that deal. Neither one is a pick being traded in reality. It's one of his favorite spins....

GM Bill Armstrong on keeping OEL: "Oliver & I have had some good discussions. We've talked about scenarios. I basically went back to him & said listen, just hang in there I know you're stressed about it, let's get through this free agency.. get on the other side of it"

GM Bill Armstrong on the market for OEL:"everyone's kind of staring each other in the face. There's no hockey being played, there's no injuries, there's no desperation. I think when you're dealing with clubs on any player they're not maybe as high as offers as you'd like"

That's like begging for OEL to extend his deadline so Armstrong can alleviate the leverage and stick it to the team that loses its UFAs.

Β· 4m
The Canadiens have agreed to terms on a 7-year deal with forward Josh Anderson. (AAV $5.5M).

More details to come.
---------------------------------------------------------------
There was a comment last week about Sutter being extended without ever playing a game.

Anderson is the third player traded in two weeks that was extended without ever playing a game for his new team
