Really liked watching this kid. I think we had talked about this earlier. Ryan Sandelin is a forward on that team and is really good as well. He'll be at Minn State in 2018.

Welp. Drouin and a 6th to Montreal for Mikhail Sergachev and a conditional 2nd

Add the fact that he's 6'8". That range covers a lot of ice.

Jeff Gorton must have talked to this kid:

I think Him, Callahan, and Glendening would make an interesting 4th line. They'd really piss some people off!

Kind of a down year for Giroux. Isn't he typically a ~80 point player? Just seems like he doesn't fit in a list with those guys.

Jesus. No thank you.

Sucks. He was my favorite player growing up, I was hoping he'd expand his coaching role with the Wings.

Mike Posner, Kid Rock, Eminem? I was gonna say Jack White but he lives in Nashville now

Well, he is from Edina. Bunch of cake eaters.

I can't do too many now that I weigh more, but at his age when I played high school I definitely could bench more than I weighed and was able to do a number of pull ups. I was far from being one of the stronger kids on the team as well. Maybe he's one of those kids who had so much talent compared to his peers he thought the weight room wasn't necessary? We definitely had a few kids on our team that had that opinion.

Just read that Mittelstadt couldn't do a single pull-up and only benched 80% of his weight once at the combine. Not end of the world, and I know he's got room to make strength gains but holy. I thought they start these kids in the weight room in middle school nowadays?

What do you mean? He's Nashville's #1 right now! I guess my sarcasm was poorly translated when I added that in there, just a joke.

Vatanen, Duchene, Barrie, Jenner, Sustr, Drouin, MacKinnon. No way we can get any of them but that would be real nice. That Jarnkrok kid out of Nashville looks good.

Maybe if he changes his name to Crosby and number to 87. I'd be surprised if it went to anyone else, just because. Murray should have won it last time.

I think the Preds can take this. Sens are a lesser team on both sides of the puck in my eyes even with the Preds injuries and still took them almost through 8 games of hockey.

I met him a few months ago. The guy was incredibly nice!

Hopefully Ægir provides him safe travels.

Honestly if that wasn't Crosby I don't even see how that's a penalty. How many times has this happened before and there was no injury and you don't even see this?

People would be so pissed if the one year the Wings miss the playoffs they get the #1 pick. I hope it happens haha.

Not sure, but Chicago just traded Darling's negotiating rights to Carolina.

My coworker and I were just talking about this. I feel like in order for the Caps to ever take a series against Pittsburgh, they need a player constantly in Sid's ear, taking him off his game mentally. Philly did that a while back perfectly. Have the guy shadow him his whole shift and don't leave him alone. He's shown this year he still has that little temper of his. You get him in a hissy fit and he starts slashing people he's gonna shut down and spend some time in the box. Until they get that type of player, I don't think they're going to win unfortunately. I hope I'm wrong.

BEAST. What a pick up that was. A small consolation prize after how lame they were to watch after Lucroy and Gomez were traded. But I think it'd be worth it to at least give this guy a shot, if he chooses to sign with the Red Wings. MORE SIZE!!

Parise's contract is even worse. I'll be surprised if he plays that out.

I'd say Jack Skille is definitely a bust for being drafted that high.
