Tychonick to ottawa.

Tychonick and Bernard Docker have been friends for years and have been a pairing quite a few times. Both off the UND and now both drafted by the Senators

I think it was still a good one. Based on historical data, the pick position we ended up trading has a higher chance of being nothing than of reaching even Hamonic’s level (2nd pairing defenceman). People just like new, shiny things.

In fact, to stand a higher than 50% chance of getting a player even as good as Bennett is now, the return would’ve had to be the 8th pick (or higher). Pretty much anything less would’ve been bad value for Bennett.

52 picks down, only 52 picks left until the Flames take somebody. (barring a trade)

Ugh. Now the Pens have two of my favorite players on the Canes.

Bellerive and Addison.

Is having a sister a prerequisite to getting drafted?

Olofsson will probably end up a better center than Kotkaniemi

Good pick by the Habs there

I am expecting the Flames to take a goalie with one of their 4ths.

Calgary should be very attractive to College, Junior, and other European UFAs in this age group. Silver lining

Just 2.

Olof Lindbom 39th OA
Oliver Rodrigue 62nd OA

The goalie that Edmonton took at 62nd OA is the son of their goalie consultant.

Nepotism.

edit: now the Avs have taken the 3rd goalie Justus Annunen at 64th OA
