PAPASLAM!! IT'S PIZZA NIGHT AND DRAFT NIGHT!

THANKS TO ROBINSON CANO!!

YES!!!!

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

But how did they do this without a starting goalie and a captain??? HOW???

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Holy shit

I just thought I'd pop in and tell everyone that I will see you all in the third round!

Holy shit

Is there another Saad?

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Elliotte's saying the deal's done. Gotta be more than Saad going to Chicago.

And here I was hoping that Anisimov was coming with the breadman.

CAN WE JUST CHOOSE A THREAD. I keep choosing....poorly.

Also, Chicago is smoking some good stuff if the deal doesn't include a good piece in addition to Saad.

 

[pixburgher66]

John Tortorella and a young enthusiastic Russian scorer should be fun, though. I'm still convinced he's fired at some point this year.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

I'm a little reserved - none of the TSN guys are saying anything and Elliiotte's been, uh, weird lately (he first said the 7th pick was going to Chicago for Hjalmarsson).

Hello SportsHoopla, we go to 43 for further reaction. 43?

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

And on cue, there they are lol.

I've temporarily closed the ongoing NHL thread so that all transactions, trades, rumo(u)rs etc. can be added to this thread to avoid confusion.

I need my hand held and to be directed, so thank you.

Note: my comment was meant to illustrate that I don't know if the Jackets have the assets to do that. But Anisimov and Panarin would mean the Jackets can be done. Flexibility down the middle and that sniper they need that Saad never became.

John Tortorella and a young enthusiastic Russian scorer should be fun, though. I'm still convinced he's fired at some point this year.

Jackets have two Russian Rookies (Gavrikov and Abramov) expecting to make noise in camp and of course a Russian goalie who needs friends. Torts is gonna pop a blood vessel.

And on cue, there they are lol.

Well, if it had to be a goalie I prefer it to be Forsberg.

And Columbus says thanks...
