Welcome to the club, boys!

Short for Davidov Popelivichsky

Whatever the case, Gillis got destroyed. He wanted to trade Luongo's bad contract and keep the obviously-superior Schneider, so he started by shopping Luongo around; this obviously alienated Luongo a bit, and made the latter start publicly hoping for a new start in another city for another team. He ended up asking far too much for Luongo; instead of lowering his price, he decided to trade Schneider instead. He got a good offer for Schneider from Edmonton, but ultimately decided instead to trade Schneider for a single draft pick, a price he could probably have extracted for Luongo. So now he's stuck with the inferior goaltender, who is also most likely a bit bitter at being kept after all. This is a minor point, but he also didn't bother to tell Luongo before making the trade. As of 20 minutes ago, he still hadn't spoken with Luongo, and planned to do so later in the day. This guy is on crack.

I heard that if you do it in the Hampus instead of the normal way you'll still be a virgin. True?

Not nearly enough in my opinion. I think if we throw in Pav, Jimmy, a prime Larionov and Steve Yzerman's legacy it's a doable trade. Make it happen, Kenny!

Hampus time is over, you kids go to bed!

Who names the child Hampus?

As someone who lives in BC and watches a lot of Canuck games I really hope the Wings don't trade for Edler. He does not think a good game out there, and he's been like this the past two seasons. All the Canuck fans I know hope they trade him because he's so frustrating.

Edler is overrated.

http://hockeytracker.net/wordpress/2013/06/letang-stays/ 8yr/$58m I love it. Pretty much ensures the Pens won't be contender for 8 years.

and don't forget to throw all your dirty clothes in the Hampus!

LOL. Holland anticipating the sadness of a useless Todd Bertuzzi retiring, decides to draft a nephew of his, ensuring that his lineage in Detroit continues. I hope Samuelsson and Cleary don't have any relatives in this draft or others.

I always tell my girlfriend that we have to name a future kid Hampus..... and her name is Mylène. This is my new favourite player!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They traded the 1a goalie to a team that already has one of the greatest goalies of all time, Schneider has to ride the pine for a year to watch Brodeur play out his final year and now the Nucks are stuck with a goalie who clearly doesnt have much interest in playing for them......nice move Gillis..this just reeks or terrible and it looks so good on them.

Jersey trades for LA's seventh so they can draft Brodeur's son. Martin announced the pick...pretty cool.

Hampus. I...I can't even. I hope he becomes a big deal on the Wings in a few years so we can hear his name ALL THE TIME.

So, when is Kenny going to clear out some players via trades like he's been saying for the last week?

I can give you a good reason why to take him now. Another team shows interest in taking him before you pick again. CS means nothing when your own scouts think hes better. If CS meant everything then Dats and Hank would have been 1st rounders.

Uhhh... gentlemen it's 2013

I think the context of the game had a lot to do with it as well. A game filled with fights previously and a blow out score and the team that's up disrespects the goalie and rubs their nose in the fact they're getting blown out. I can see easily why the kid went off the handle so I think the punishment originally given out was fair and criminal charges would be going way overboard.

I bet they'd be willing to give Filppula the $5m+ for 7 years he's looking for...

Filppula's team.

If you're an impending UFA and look around at the type of money paid to other guys that you know you're better than, I don't know how you can consider it greed. Players around Flip's age have to lock down that one big deal to make the bulk of the money they'll make in their lifetime. Logic and reason tell you that with the cap going down, players like Filppula can't be paid $5.5 mil per year, but experience tells you that somebody will pay that, or close to it. Crap, teams like Phoenix, Columbus, etc. need to hand out a bad contract or two just to stay over the salary floor! Have you ever left a job voluntarily that you weren't fired from? I suspect most people have (or have considered it), and some people consider doing it on almost an annual basis. Did you feel like a greedy traitor knowing that somebody else had to take over your work and clean your mess up so you could go earn a little more money somewhere else?
