THE 2016 NHL DRAFT-DAY THREAD

[Deebo]

Burke's hair is ridiculous.

 

[McGarnagle]

Burke's hair is ridiculous.

The NHL needs like 7 more burkes. Not enough personalities.

 

[WhatIfGodWasALeaf]

I can't help but like Murray, he seems like a good interview most of the time.

 

[Jolly good show chaps]

Brian Elliott to the Flames for 35th overall and conditional 3rd on 2018

 

[Nik]

How many kids does Michael Nylander have?

 

[GhostofPotvin29]

Buffalo takes Nylander.  IT. IS. ON.

 

[WhatIfGodWasALeaf]

Buffalo takes Nylander.  IT. IS. ON.

That's a great result for the family too, a short drive for family dinner.

 

[herman]

Buffalo takes Nylander.  IT. IS. ON.

Oh man. Same draft slot too.

 

[Nik]

This worked out really well for Montreal. Dang.

 

[TBLeafer]

So the Nylander brothers both go 8th OA and are now rivals.

Anyone still want Buffalo landing Stammer?

 

[McGarnagle]

It didn't sound from the interview that Buffalo sounded overly positive about signing Vesey. You trade for his rights, and say that you "haven't really spoken yet"? Odd.

 

[herman]

What is happening?!

Chychrun at 31 is on pace.

 

[WhatIfGodWasALeaf]

Poor kid, just got the hang of English and now needs to learn French.

 

[Deebo]

Shaw and Gallagher either side of Plekanec would not be fun to play against.

Funny that if you look hard enough, Andrew Shaw actually spells out B-O-L-L-A-N-D

34 and 26 points are the last 2 seasons.

2 2nd round picks for that?

Seems steep

 

[TBLeafer]

Wow Calgary snaps up Elliot!

 

[McGarnagle]

Doesn't seem like Calgary thinks Reimer is a legit #1 either.

Is it your gut feeling?

Definitely seems steep. And a bit of risk personality-wise as well. Truth be told, I really liked Eller.

 

[Nik]

Man, does Colorado have enough C's?
