I think the leafs got a steal there ,him getting Mono was a good thing for leaf land.Ditto for us when Colin White dropped for the exact same reason
As for whom we picked he seems kinda meh,but at 28th in a weak draft i guess its all really a crapshoot
- top shelf 15

I am not sure its really a weak draft. There is no Sure fire superstar at the top, but from what I read its not like the rest of the draft follows suit and is all weak.

But if that were the case, thats why I think its more important to take a big swing on someone thats dropping like the Leafs and tolvanen like I mentioned.

I think we all know that reason. Likely very similar to the reasons behind the Phaneuf, Brassard, and Burrows trades... among other decisions.

Oh, you mean the decisions that lead to Ottawa's appearance in the ECFs, and within one goal, in DOT in gave seven, of a second appearance in the SCFs, in ten years.

No I think he was trying to say he's not a good GM.

Drafting Karlsson was a good decision yes

So in his mind, a GM who makes moves, that results in their team qualifying for the ECFs, is not good?


That's a pretty low bar, when you consider 26 teams did not appear in either the ECFs or the WCFs???

Was PD GM in 2008, when the Senators drafted Erik Karlsson???

I always thought BM was GM way back then?

Anyone talk about how Liljegren > Chabot yet?

Here is a decent write up on the Leafs Draft

https://mapleleafshotstov...nto-maple-leafs-strategy/

Some weird picks that I would be surprised are ever NHL Players outside of the first 2 picks

Anyone talk about how Liljegren > Chabot yet?
- BetterCallSaul

chabott was the right pick for them, though.

liljegren wasn't in that draft year.

K. But Still, Liljegren > Chabot.

So now we know the Full Dion Trade

Lets see how Rasanen and Lindberg pan out

@PierreVLeBrun

Have confirmed this with Bill Daly just now: There is no blanket rule prohibiting a team from re-acquiring player lost in exp draft already




Pierre LeBrun‏Verified account @PierreVLeBrun

So, for example, as it relates to Marc Methot: there is no rule prohibiting the Senators from trying to trade back for him this week...

In the meantime, Pierre Dorion has targetted a few UFA D-men he'd like to talk to over the next week...

My Sens wish list is Girardi. He would be a great pick up for a team looking to miss the playoffs

K. But Still, Liljegren > Chabot.
- BetterCallSaul

calm down.

all i want to do is talk about Liljegren being a better prospect than chaboot.

don't be so closed minded.
