Yep. His son.

aggressive, annoying little shit apparently. Imagine that.

Kerby Rychel is also Warren's son.

Max Domi has hands that actually function in gloves-on mode a lot more than his pop.

Annoying little shit for sure though.

So the Islanders are taking a guy I've never heard of. Who the heck is Alexander Wennberg?

If Hunter Shinkaruk falls to the Devils at 20 I'll be shocked & very angry. They don't need another Zach Parise.

I don't expect Wennberg to go that high, more of a 15-20 range pick, but whomever takes him is going to get a very good player.

He can always patent his "pants" goal
20 seconds in...but seriously that is a benefit of going to the net.

Bumped for final outcome comparison.

The Jackets fan site are all over this guy. Expecting to land him at 14 should Jarmo not trade up to go after Lindholm or a winger like Shinkaruk or Nichuskin if he falls.

Here's a decent mock draft that says just that. Not too bad. Saying Calgary gets Fucale, which might be nice.

I don't know why Feaster would take Fucale when you consider they have Kari Ramo and Reto Berra likely coming over from Europe. I'd like to take Nicolas Petan with the last of our 1st round picks as things currently stand.

if the flyers take zadarov i will be sad. defensive dmen might be the only thing the flyers dont need. i'd much rather see them take pulock or morrissey if all 3 were available at 11

Also, I don't like using first round picks to select goalies (Exhibit "A" Trevor Kidd and Exhibit "B" Leland Irving)

Ugh. I'd rather see the Sharks take Buchnevich or Klimchuk over Erne.

The last time the Sens held the 18th overall pick they traded up 3 spots to get a guy called Karlsson with the 15th pick.

I can see the same type of trade happening if someone to their liking is available past about 12th. The Sens have tons of good young players/prospects. They need top quality at this point, not quantity.

Jackets are in the same boat, which I why I am hoping the slide up and go after Lindholm. Three picks should give them room to trade up.

The Sens need to bring up Cole Schneider!

Hes been playing pretty well in the AHL. Second on the team in scoring. He's a personal friend that's why i bring him up... Probably wont happen but you can only wish.

Cool.

I figured it was something like that. He's been surprisingly good in the AHL by all accounts. Not much was made of his signing last year, but he put in a solid season. Before the lockout I watched several Bingo games and he was pretty decent.

I doubt we'll see him in the playoffs this year but it wouldn't surprise me if he made the show at some point down the line. Murray loves his college signings.
