Detroit's was leaked as well. You obviously weren't following along with our tracker *wink*
Bruins
8:15
Who do you think replaces Luzon(assuming he is the pick) and Miller who retired? I would guess they bring Mike Reilly back but who else do they add?
Gavin Lee
8:16
How about Keith Yandle?
Seems like a perfect fit on the left side
Wouldn't be surprised to see a veteran name like Edler in the mix too, if he's willing to come to the east
John
8:17
Vanecek a no-brainer for Kraken. Big loss for the caps?
Gavin Lee
8:17
They just took the lesser of two evils I guess, letting him get picked instead of someone else off the roster.
But yeah, it's a loss for sure.
8:18
Listen, I still believe in Samsonov, but there were some worrying moments this season
Dark
8:18
What do you make of Daccord being taken but not Kaapo?
Gavin Lee
8:18
Carson Soucy is a good player, which is something no one seems to be bringing up
8:19
There's the first one in person, Driedger's deal has been done for a bit now
What a chance for him
Excited that he got to this point
Jeff
8:19
Do you think David Savard could make his way back to the Blue Jackets? Do you think he would take 3 years x 3m AAV?
Gavin Lee
8:20
He will get a lot more than that, I would imagine
And no, I doubt it will be from the Blue Jackets
Oh goodness they just called Fleury a forward
Griffin
8:21
If you were Toronto would you rather have lost kerfoot and his salary? Seen for the longest time he was the selection
Gavin Lee
8:22
This is such a weird question that I keep seeing for some reason (not trying to pick on you)
But yes, they would have rather lost Kerfoot--that's exactly why Seattle didn't take him
McCann is more valuable
He's cheaper, younger and probably better
Fred Saskamoose
8:23
What's you're feelings on the Kraken getting the second pick in the entry draft. I know the goal is to get them to be competitive faster but its got to be frustrating for rebuilding teams
Gavin Lee
8:23
No problem at all with it. They give them the third-best odds in the lottery
That seems about right to me
8:24
I feel like if the NHL really wanted to do this right, they would have had Gourde walk out with the Stanley Cup right now
How pumped up would that get the Seattle crowd
Big Chief
8:24
Has anyone calculated the leaked draft picks? I know some are UFAs, but will the Krak have enough salary?
Gavin Lee
8:24
They will, yes
Barely, but yes
Kevin
8:25
Assuming Giordano is traded who is the top 4 on D next year?
Gavin Lee
8:27
Pretty early to tell, but

Oleksiak, Larsson, Lauzon and Dunn look like it, maybe MacDermid, Borgen, Fleury could fight for that fourth spot with Lauzon
Guest
8:27
Could they aquire a Goalie in Trade tonight even if it's unsigned prosoect?
Gavin Lee
8:28
I'm not sure what you mean exactly
They cant make any trades that don't have to do with the draft until tomorrow
But an unsigned prospect, who are we talking about here?
Carson
8:28
How does Columbus fill the gaping hole on the right side of their defense after trading away Jones? Seems like Peeke is ready for top-4 minutes but that’s it on the right side.
Gavin Lee
8:29
Well he's not gone yet
We'll see what comes back in the deal, for one, but if they're trading Jones does it really matter?
