nor do I. He would benefit with stay in TB around Vinny and Marty or coming to Philly and playing with Claude and Danny. They can dish him the puck and he can snipe the 50 goals a season

Who the hell will get him the puck in Toronto? Kessel?

I'm not even talking about on ice production or teammates. Look at how Kessel has been perceived by the Toronto media and fans. I'm sure he isn't the happiest man in the world with the amount of pressure on him.

If Hamilton and/or Courturier are off the board by #8, I wouldn't be surprised to see Homer move back a few picks since all the players until 13-14 are of the same quality.

XM interviewed Brayden Schenn about an hour after the deal, he sounded ecstatic.

I'm fine if the Flyers move down and pick up some more assets.

They should have the cap room, but I think Schenn is getting every opportunity to fill that spot.
- Jsaquella

If he steps in and can shut down top lines, I wouldn't care so much about his offense this season.

I am seriously nervous about Briere/Leino/Hartnell and only a little less nervous about G/JvR getting shut down roles against the #1 lines on the top teams.

That is my biggest worry with the trades. By far.

Hearing Carle or Versteeg plus 8 overall to Avs for their 2nd overall. Thanks to @AndrewKnollNHL embedded at draft for this 1.


Might not be Bob, but still pulling a George and Weezy

I'd prefer it to be Versteeg, but probably not by much... and that's just me.

They may just rip the name plate and dust off an old Dale Hawerchuk jersey.

It better be Versteeg. Trading Matt Carle would be a big time mistake.
