Now eight of the top ten are defensemen. Filip Forsberg is going to make a team very very happy.

I wish Staal nothing but the best. Helluva player. He deserves his time to shine now.

Where were the Jackets on Staal? I'm clueless but I think we could have put together something equal or better to obtain a stud in the NHL like him.
Ryan Murray a good pick we will be good on D for a time to come. Bye bye Marc Methot.

He was only going to go to to Carolina to play with Eric. He's a UFA after next season anyway. Hell, he turned down 10 yeas-$60 million to stay in PIT.gerb131;1209585 wrote:Where were the Jackets on Staal?

Hilarious pick from Boston. Not that it's bad, but they got PK Subban's brother. Gonna be a good rivalry if his bro works out

Brilliant 1st round from Shero.
Michalek has been traded to Phoenix, Martin could be moved as well.
Shero will be going after Parise hard on July 1st.
What the team could look like next year:
Parise-Crosby-Dupuis
Kunitz-Malkin-Neal
Cooke-Sutter-Kennedy
Tangradi-Vitale-Adams
Jeffrey
Orpik-Letang
xxxxx-xxxxx
Despres-Niskanen
Engellend
Fleury
Vokoun

Damn, step out for an evening and all hell breaks loose in Pittsburgh.
Gonna miss Staal but it's a good move for Shero. Had to do it. The timing is a little awkward as Staal got married last night during the draft. Many of the Pens players were there.
I can see it now. Staal says "I do" and Sid goes up and whispers in his ear that he's been traded to Carolina.

Any truth to the rumor that Staal wanted out of Crosby/Malkin's shadow? I don't blame him, he's worth more on the open market than he is to the Pens.

He just wanted a bigger role on the team, it's not going to happen though when you have the 2 best players in the world on the same team.chicago510;1210281 wrote:Any truth to the rumor that Staal wanted out of Crosby/Malkin's shadow?

Further proof Howson is a retard and needs fired.
He got an offer from the Islanders to drop from 2nd to 4th for all of the Islanders picks in this year's draft.
He turned it down.

Anyone see the poll in the Washingtonian Magazine about who the worst athlete in DC is? The fans of all DC sports picked Ovi. LOL.
