So if the season ended today, we would be picking at 11 I believe? If we lose tonight in Winnipeg (trailing 2-1 in 3rd), things could get interesting. I know the season is lost, do any of you want to tank the remainder of games to move up?

Lol not sure we'd have to try to hard to achieve that goal. I guess it couldn't hurt though. I mean Pittsburgh did it for years so did the Oilers why not us.

Losing out could land us a spot to get our sniper in the draft. I hate losing as much as everyone here, but being in the middle of the pack year in and year out isn't going to help out future. I'll admit, I am not familiar with the upcoming draft and who the top prospects are coming out? I figure @awaz, @Maverick426h and a few of you know this area.

I'd have to look it up but I'm sure there is at least one or two out there, Also I hope we don;t over look the college kids this year. There is some good talent in that pool. Losing wont taste that bad if you know you're getting Filet Mignon later.

Morning boys. Season is pretty much toast and looking forward to the draft. As of now it looks like we are picking 7 or 8? Who do you guys like at this spot? Do we go BPA or focus on the top LW? :think:

I would like to trade up to the top three if possible. I would also like a player with size speed and skill with a ability to snipe. Is this asking to much?

Mike Vechione (Union) seems like a guy that would fit nicely on Haksol's system. Also noticed he played with Ghost during their championship team.
Some solid prospects were already signed and we haven't done anything yet.
