Touché...... Rundblad was a first round selection as well though.

Runblad was not small. He was 6 2.

Are you on a tablet/phone? I’m having the same issues lately on my iPad, but not my laptop.

If you trade an Adam Fox, you'll regret it.

Did you same posters want to move Gaudreau before he was signed?

A point-per-game defenceman in the NCAA is a much different thing than a point-per-game defenceman in the WHL. And I say that being very happy the Flames picked Valimaki where they did.

You would be crazy to trade Adam Fox. Period.

A 20 year old defenceman posting a point-per-game for the second season in a row in the NCAA? Yeah, those grow on trees.

It'll be interesting to see what other trades the Nash one now shakes out. If there is a bigger deal in the West today as well, it too may flush out other teams to keep up.

And getting this Nash and above mentioned potential big one in the west deal done this early, allows plenty of time for teams to figure out what it means to them and thus make deals in next 28 hours, as opposed to something like this dropping a couple hours before the deadline and teams scrambling to reevaluate thier strategy and revisit prior talks with the other GMs under a tight time crunch.

Just hope the Flames aren't involved. If it hasn't been made abundantly apparent how much of a seller's market this is after that Nash trade.

In case you needed more evidence that Eklund is full of crap:

Dan Rosen @drosennhl
To dispel any crazy rumors or thoughts, Henrik Lundqvist says he loves the Rangers, can’t see himself anywhere else, wants to win only here and the Rangers haven’t asked him if he even would consider moving. It’s NOT happening. Lundqvist starts tonight

I agree, you want to keep Fox, unless some GM has lost their mind and you simply cannot pass it up.

Brodie + Fox for Mark Stone or something silly like that.

Definitely don’t want to trade Fox, just threw his name out there as a valuable chip. Would prefer to trade someone like Kylington but doubt he has much value.
