    But imagine his stats if he hadn't been playing hurt this year... 70 pts? 80? 100???

    2019 Draft

    Yeah like just put the top 10, or even top 15, in a blender after Hughes and Kakko. That's a good a prediction as any. These mock drafts and rankings are all bungus

    Jimmy Devellano

    He's senior VP and alternate governor. Seeing as Chris Ilitch is Governor, I assume as alternate governor he's basically the mouth of Sauron. As in, he acts on Chris's (ownerships) behalf on a daily basis, as I highly doubt Chris is literally in the Wings offices everyday. I've also heard he watches a f*** ton of hockey film. So he probably plays the role of a scout somewhat too, but most people in hockey operations do that. After all, that is the business.

    2019 Draft

    I went to the 2016 draft in Buffalo, but it was super easy cause I lived in Buffalo at the time. Got to hear Brian Burke speak, saw John Chyka in passing, talked to Tony Granato, some random Montreal scout, and some former Leafs Dman who can't remember the name of. Other than seeing a few guys from the biz thou, it's kinda super boring and lame. Not sure I wanna put the effort in. Gotta hit up scout bro this weekend and see if he can do anything for me.

    "The Russian 5" Documentary

    Stream The Russian 5 Movie The above link is to the Russian 5 Movie's website. They're making the movie available to stream at home as of tomorrow June 7. Looks like the cost is $10.00. Probably well worth it, as that's the price of like 1 movie ticket. I'll be watching tomorrow night.

    2019 Draft

    I know I know, really just trying to talk myself into it Part of me is like, what if my buddy gets me on to the draft floor or behind the scenes, and I get to meet Yzerman or talk to scouts or whatever. The other part of me is like you're gonna miss work to drive 6 hours, spend $100 bucks on the tickets, spend $200 bucks on a hotel room, plus food & gas, all so you can sit in the stands and watch something you could've watched on a live stream at the comfort of home for free.

    2019 Draft

    I just realized this draft is down the street from me. An organization I'm an alumni with is offering me discounted tickets. My buddy who scouts for the Islanders is Vancouver based as well. So he should be there. Makes a lot of sense to just go. Ken Holland is also the keynote speaker at a private conference held on draft day that I can get into. Think I might have to do it. Just sucks cause I'd have to use vacation days to take that Thursday and Friday off work, and the draft is honestly pretty boring to attend.

    "And now we'd like to welcome to the stage Steve Yzerman, for his first ever pick as the GM of the Detroit Red Wings" "Thank you commissioner Bettman... I'd also like to thank the great city of Vancouver for hosting this draft." "With the 6th overall pick in the 2019 draft..." **Flight of the Valkyries unexpectedly begins playing** "From the USA national development team..." **The crowds attention turns to the entrance stage** "Someone's coming..." "BY GOD IT'S PHILIP BROBERG" "OMG AND HE'S TAKING THE 6TH OVERALL SELECTION BELT FROM STEVE YZERMAN" "THIS IS UNPRECEDENTED!"

    Honestly makes his season even more impressive this year. Will be better than both Zagina and Velameo.

    I just looked and Yakupov had over 100 more NHL games played at the time of his trade, so maybe more but IDK

    News From Around the NHL *Mod warning page 75*

    IDK Yakupov wasn't that much older and they traded him for a 3rd (conditions to become 2nd) and a random prospect. Maybe Holland would do it for Svechnikov straight up? Or a 2nd and a prospect like Turgeon?

    2019 Draft

    Probably I'm pretty much chaotic neutral about the draft. If the scouts think Broberg is BPA or whatever, I'm fine with it. That said, I love a good reach by management in the eyes of fans. Draft day drama is 2nd to none.

    Bobfather says Puljujarvi officially wants to be traded out of Edmonton. Still wants to be in the NHL. Your move Ken. Vancouver has multiple offers on the table for Zucker out of Minny. Chara done for the rest of the SC finals. Broken jaw. Also, follow up on the Hall rumor from Pagnotta, I guess Pagnotta was exaggerating. Hall is being patient, and would consider re-signing with NJ if they can prove they're turning the corner and become contenders. 1 year left on his contract. Pressure on in NJ this offseason.

    I think it will be Bob and Panarin to the Panthers as well. There's rumbling that Luongo is gonna retire. He just turned 40 and had a real bad year this season by his standards. Probably time to hang em up. Florida is also not gonna hand the reigns to Reimer, who's a good backup at best. Gotta think now with Q in the fold they're eyeing the Panarin/Bobrovsky package deal intensely. Makes too much sense for them. ******* do it Yzerman. Broswede is the best player in the draft.

    Poll: Datsyuk on the team at 41?

    Pods did say he has every intention of coming to NA and playing in the NHL. He just wants to fufill the 2 years left on his KHL contract.

    Yup signed with his home town team.
