2016 NHL Draft
Be nice to see guys develop... in a couple years... Morrissey-Trouba Stanley-Buff Chiarot-Myers (Poolman-Kostalek)

So you want to sign Hamhuis...? That's the only decent LHD left... no one really trades quality D... Okposo is comparable to Zajac... at $6 mill, I'll take that. Way better value than Stafford at $4.3. He makes this team a contender immediately and takes pressure off Connor. Only problem is that I think someone - Detroit or Buffalo - offer him $7.5 a year...

Drew Willy
I am a fan of Waggoner but still think we could have offered a 2nd rounder for him... if you don't get him, you don't get him... Walters ignored his own draft strategy and used a 1st on an LB instead of building OL. Its a mistake, that's all. I'm more worried about taking Richards when Waud, Durant, Beard and Archambault were still on the board. It reminded me of a Mack pick. My other concern is dumping our late round picks... Ottawa now has Lattanzio and I wouldn't be surprised if Butcher doesn't end up somewhere else - keep them on the PR.

Breathe...
I think a very good comparison is Calgary... next week will show us who the bombers really are. Mitchell has an awful OL, receivers legit running the wrong routes, pretty solid RBs, new QB coach... Calgary very much have the same excuses as the bombers. BC actually has more excuses than us... but we don't play them until October

Drew Willy
Lots of excuses.... as always... Every QB or FA (especially during the Mack era) was an 'overpay'... Harris is not making $400k a year as a backup... Somehow Desjardins has landed two of the best starting QBs in the league, a prime LT FA and the best receiving core in the league... and stil stays under the cap. As for Barker, I agree they made a mistake... but there's a big difference between betting the farm on Ricky Ray than on Drew Willy...

Didn't know about the Wheeler/Okposo connection... interesting Okposo would be a huge upgrade over Stafford... I'd do $6 for 6 with Okposo - he's better than Ladd imo and if its not working out, leave him exposed at the expansion draft. Jets will still have room to sign Scheif and Trouba. Not sure what LHD Chevy is looking at in FA... unless its Hamhuis, I don't see anyone that good. Maybe Polak or Schenn.

Wow, Chevy missed the boat on the Kulikov trade... Buffalo got a sweet deal. Really looking like we overpaid for pick 18 now...

Patrik Laine
I have a connection at Joseph Abboud. Knew Chevy bought a new blue tie.

Our DL really really should have a huge game next week... if not, there's something wonky with the scheme. Calgary's OL is brutal.

Not gonna lie, slightly depressing to see Rick Campbell, Mark Nelson and Bob Dyce working together for Ottawa... Such a shame Nelson had Kelly-stink on him after 09

I believe releasing your starting quarterback mid-season would classify as 'total embarrassment'... just can't see it happening

No one should ever mock Desjardins again... he has built a winner from scratch. Great drafting, great FA, not afraid to pay for QBs, nice CDN depth... have to give him credit. Strange how Harris is playing in an entirely new system with new receivers and OL and yet seems totally comfortable

Two series, two TDS for Harris Anyone still think that we have the 'best backup in the league' ha
