..because there 300 goals a season means they don't need defense. (kidding).

[serge2k]

YES YES YES!

one of Backlund, Perron, Moller will be avalilable at the canucks pick.

Should they have picked up a defenseman who is a worse player because they need one?

Based on Lowe's interview and the players selected today, it's pretty obvious Edmonton is now picking players based on where they are born rather than how good they are. I really like Nash and I think he's a pretty good pick but I had him slotted in with Edmonton's 2nd round pick.

Ok, I have to admit, I don't understand THAT.

[TheyCallMeBruce]

I think Sutter is going to pick Oscar Moller LOL.

[howard_the_duck]

Any ideas?

I almost feel sorry for Lowe... the guy looks like a dog that's been kicked far too many times. He can't even look the camera in the eye anymore...

Sure helps for Lowe to draft those local Alberta boys when later on they become UFAs and he gives em the shaft...

[Burner]

damn - was hoping for MAX PACIORETTY

[Azure]

Well if Mclean likes him...he must be good!

I kinda wonder what Sutter is thinking with bypassing Esposito, and if this will be his Tkaczuk v .Samsonov/Boynton/Hossa move one day. I mean, according to many people, this draft drops off pretty fast.

So much for grabbing the best player available?

I doubt any other team would have done that.

Also, it's to Wayne's team.

[JiriHrdina]

[HalifaxDrunk]

Na, na, na, na, na, na...Bettman!

[ShaolinFlame]

[Metro Gnome]

Im getting the feeling Sutter's pick is going to be someone I've never heard of (again)...

At least he figured out that drafting western Canadian kids is a recipe for success.

Stupid Predators better not take Petrecki.
