Damn San Jose gearing up eh.
I was listening to Anthony Di Marco on TSN690 earlier today and he said a GM told him about a month ago to never believe the smoke you hear about the Habs leading up to the draft because they're always gonna do the opposite and called Hughes and Gorton the smokescreen kings of the NHL.
He said at last years draft no one thought the Habs were taking Reinbacher @ 5 and when they did he said he was told by someone that the Coyotes draft table was livid because everyone had the Habs going Leonard.
Sharks will come out of the draft with Celebrini and a premium dman.
f*** me.......They gave a second round pick to move up 3 spots? Good deal for the Sabres. Strange that the Sabres made this deal before knowing who was going to be available at 11th,.
You ok man?WTF IS RHE DRAFRT STSRTED WTHF
It definitely wasn't that way in the 80's at least for management and upwards. Keep in mind just how much the banks have swallowed up here in Canada23 years for me and capped out at 4 weeks as well. Only ones I know who get more are the ones who work at Banks, Insurance, Government. The ones with the most money and the most amount of lazy workers. haha. To be clear, not all of them are that way but a fair mount of them.
I got a job offer from the government about 6 years ago and told my employer. They blocked more than 4 weeks but gave me a yearly golf membership and increased my salary. Works for me and I stayed.
The salary and other conditions are about as good as can be though.
Don't just check in, you need to post. We need all our best posters to bring this mother f***er down tomorrow
They must just have a clear Top 11-12 in their minds and don’t care who is there.Sharks eyeing Catton/Eiserman/Helenius?
Or one of the premium D’s to fall? Parekh/Yakemchuk?

Wonder how this will affect the Necas to Sabres rumor.
Ya lol everyone basically leaked Habs were out on Michkov before the draft and then the year before they literally had a last minute meeting with Slaf the morning of the draft. In a way they've been pretty transparent. What would be the point of bluffing Reinbacher? None of those top 4 teams were trading down below us to allow someone to take him from usNot sure I really buy this. We didn't know for sure but going into 2022 we were pretty confident it was either Wright or Slafkovsky, and last year there was tons of noise about both Reinbacher and Leonard. I can certainly believe that other teams thought we'd lean Leonard but taking Reinbacher wasn't really much of a surprise.
Top 15: moving 3 spots returns a solid 2nd rounder.
Son of a bitch that takes away the option to trade with BUF
Who knows they may be looking to move the pick again as part of another package.Is this a new thing in the NHL? Moving up or down in the leadup to the draft as opposed to during?
Islanders and Blackhawks swapped 18 and 20 a month ago, now Sharks and Sabres swap 14th and 11th.
Don't these teams (both sides) want to see who drops and what happens in the draft before moving around?
Can't see them drafting two forwards with two top 11 picks when they need a high end dman badlySharks eyeing Catton/Eiserman/Helenius?
Or one of the premium D’s to fall? Parekh/Yakemchuk?
Is going from Skinner to Necas that big of an upgrade?Wonder how this will affect the Necas to Sabres rumor.
