uk_redwing 495 Report post Posted June 24, 2010 It's an internet reputation system. It's not like if the world ends tomorrow we can exchange positive rankings for food. With that being said, enjoy a +1 lol. No, but it allows my head to grow that little bit more. 2 Wings_Toledo and redwingfan19 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hockey Convert 55 Report post Posted June 25, 2010 It's an internet reputation system. It's not like if the world ends tomorrow we can exchange positive rankings for food. If that did happen, though, would that not be the most epic, if very Pyrrhic, karmic justice ever? Anyway, we'll find out in a few hours now. If nothing exciting is on the table still at 21st, I guess why not trade down for a more shotgun approach if someone's willing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jollymania 162 Report post Posted June 25, 2010 TSN said McIlraith would go 14, they also were glowing about him and showed him nailing some guy with a Rob BLake-esque hipcheck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yellowknife Redwing 57 Report post Posted June 25, 2010 I want Nill and co. to grab as many of Burmistrov, Tarasenko, Kuznetsov, Galiev, Kabanov, and Kitsyn as possible. There are a ton of high-skill Russian players in this draft that are projected to be risky picks and I think we could benefit by scooping some serious talent that other GMs are afraid to take a chance on. 3 Finnish Wing, titanium2 and Zeowingsfan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Barrie 900 Report post Posted June 25, 2010 I reeeeeally dont want to watch a few hours of drafting if Detroit just trades down again... edit: yeah cos this really deserves a -2 You and me both. Tonight I'm watching the Tiger and Braves, then checking the highlights later to see what the Red Wings did. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jesusberg 1,256 Report post Posted June 25, 2010 (edited) I wouldn't mind if the Wings traded down IF they ended up with two decent players, but man last year was rough. Watch for 3-4 hours then, Bettman: "I have a trade to announce" FFFFFUUUUU!! I feel like with McIlrath's stock rising, it's less and less likely we'll even see a glimpse of him. My money's on someone like Bjugstad or Tarasenko now. Edited June 25, 2010 by Jesusberg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
