BigBubba Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Way to address your needs Scott Howson.....Considering the Jackets don't have anything that even resembles a goalie right now, I'm not too upset about trading for a 23 year-old goalie.But three picks? Including an important second rounder. I understand that he is 23, but Mason is 24. I don't see what makes them different, other than Bobrovsky didn't suck for two years.Only thing that could worsen this would to see Howson sign him to an extension that Ondrej Pavelec wants.EDIT - It's the 45th and 117th this year, and Phoenix's fourth next year. I guess it's not that bad.Yeah, also remember that he did post a 2.59 last year with the Flyers and has really only had one year of consistent playing opportunities. Mason's had four years of consistent playing opportunities and sucked in three of those.Yes, but also with a 3.02/.898 line last year playing with the Flyers' D in front of him. Sure, he didn't get consistent playing time, but on the flip side, he didn't have the pressure to be a true number one on his shoulders. Now imagine that thrust into Columbus with the expectation of being the franchise goaltender and having a pathetic defense in front of him. Nobody cares about your humungous-big signature.

BigEd76 Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Flyers would be stupid to trade Schenn. He will be as good as Ryan. Offense isn't even the issue for the Flyers, they need to focus on their back end.The Flyers have liked Ryan forever. He grew up in Cherry Hill, NJ and his dad and Bob Clarke were good friends. The Flyers are in on him, Nash and Parise, so they're looking to add another scorer besides Giroux and all the young guys. Jagr may not be back, Briere only shows up in the playoffs and Hartnell disappeared during them. Everyone knows they need defense, and it looks like Carle will re-sign, but Pronger's status is still up in the air, Suter says he doesn't want to come to the Eastern Conference, Weber's a RFA, and guys like Hal Gill or Bouwmeester have their weaknesses, so they're trying to get up to #6 to take Dumba or Reinhart...

BigBubba Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 If the Oilers were stupid enough to pass up on Yakupov, why would they draft Murray (or whoever) when they could just trade down?

BigBubba Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 If the Oilers were stupid enough to pass up om Yakupov, why would they draft Murray (or whoever) first instead of trading down?Anyways my top-5 prediction:Oilers: Yakupov. You simply can't draft by position this high in the draft, and there seem to be no teams willing to trade up.Blue Jackets: MurrayHabs: GalchenyukIslanders: RiellyLeafs: Forsbrg Nobody cares about your humungous-big signature.

NEW.ERA Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 We are dealing with Steve Tambellini here.Anyways I've learned. Bigger the Draft day hype, the more likely nothing happens. Oilers will take Yak, and they'll just pick a defenseman first overall next year. JETS|PACK|JAYS|NUFC|BAMA|BOMBERS|RAPS|ORANJE| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Bold prediction: history will repeat itself and Forsberg will be traded on draft day.

Billy B Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Mike Ribiero traded to Washington.So far it's Yakupov, Murray, Galchenyuk, Reinhart. I'm 4/4 so far, but that'll probably go downhill very quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
