    I believe the flames GM said Hamilton will not be traded.

    hmm Hronek does sound decent.. Offensive d man, playing in Czech pro league "running power plays" and "better with the puck on his stick." Those are good but man, 163 at 6 feet tall.. Kid needs to put on some serious muscle.

    Saw comparisons from smith to Tyler bertuzzi.. Aggressive goal scorer. Apparently could be ready sooner rather than later..? Time will tell

    Smith ranked number 70 by TSN? Another reach.. Interesting.

    I thought I heard that at the mid point last year, McKenzie & friends NBC rankings or whatever had Chowlowski ranked in the 50s or so and he ended up at 25ish on the final rankings.. That progress is at least encouraging. Hopefully he continues to develop at a good rate. It'll be interesting to follow him vs Chychrun's development.

    Detroit trades Datsyuk to Arizona

    I vote good job holland because (depending on their draft board) just the 16th for the 20th and 53rd sounds like a good trade by itself. The fact that we opened up 7.5 mill in cap space along with it is excellent.

    And for only one more year

    Detroit trades Datsyuk to Arizona

    Almost the full 7.5.. Vitales hit is a little over 1 mill so most of it can be buried in the minors

    So how do we feel about Max jones at 20th? Would think so.. One more year as a little over a million. Most of that cap hit can be buried in GR

    We can thank chychruns fall for that one. Would've loved to see that guy in a wings jersey but this was a deal the wings couldn't pass up

    Wasn't Chychrun the guy that seemingly had no chance of sliding to us?? What happened?

    They'll probably just stand pat and take whichever Minnesota doesn't. Hopefully minny wants a forward and we can snag Chychrun

    Wonder who is actually on the wings board. A trade up for Chychrun could be worth it..

    Chychrun dropped below Bean on McKenzie's draft rankings.. Interesting. Wonder why?

    35th overall pick for Elliot Edit: and a conditional 3rd going to the blues if the flames can re-sign him.

    Canadiens trade Lars Eller to the caps for two second rounders.. Then trade two seconds to the Blackhawks for Shaw.
