On that note, this draft isn't as bad as everyone keeps saying.
It's got a lack of franchise talent, but still a lot of good center depth.
9:34
As many as half of the first round will play in the middle.

I think duchene will go at the draft
Gavin Lee
9:34
Which draft do you mean Nate?
(Still weird that Vegas will have a team next year.)
saku from sweden

nice with an early cat that I can read live! thanks!
Gavin Lee
9:34
Thank you for reading!
9:35
We'll still be doing our weekly Thursday evening chat as well, but how could we pass this up.
Tim
9:35
What do you expect the pens to do?
Gavin Lee
9:35
Add depth defenseman.
lukaku

How good is zach sanford?
Gavin Lee
9:35
He's really good.
9:36
That is a good deal for the Blues. Maybe not absolutely perfect, but a nice return when their hands were essentially tied.
Chris
9:36
Do you see the Bruins standing pat for the most part this trade deadline? Doesn't seem like it's a team worth sending away assets for potential rentals.
Gavin Lee
9:36
They'll make a small tweek I think.
9:37
Avs and Coyotes just made a deal, but don't get excited.
Minor leaguers.
Joe Whitney for Brendan Ranford.
lukaku
9:37
Can pulkkinen make it in nhl?
Gavin Lee
9:37
I don't think he is going to be a star.
9:38
But if he puts work in on his skating he can play.
Lenny
9:38
Are the Rangers done dealing?
Gavin Lee
9:39
Of course not, they still have their first round pick.
In all honesty, I think so.
It's ridiculous that people are asking about J.T. Miller.

What real move can the Sabres make to improve to a playoff level team. This is a very frustrating franchise.
Gavin Lee
9:39
I agree! I wrote as much the other day.
9:40
I thought the Sabres were going to take a big step forward this year, and it just never happened. Injuries are a big part of that though, and they might just sell off the expiring deals and try again next year.
Richard

Big Islanders fan. Do you think they get Duchene in the end. We need a center.
Gavin Lee
9:41
I don't think they do.
Sorry to burst your bubble.
William
9:41
What move can the Sabres make? Who has value to the league? We need a playoff team or the Sabres will need to move.
Gavin Lee
9:41
Hey look two angry Sabres fans in a row.
Yeah, they need a playoff team. But they'll get there.
9:42
Jack Eichel is really, really good. People are already forgetting about him, and they won't next year.
Lenny
9:42
Any takers on Iginla, Doan?
Gavin Lee
9:43
Doan is staying put. He doesn't want to go and be anything other than a top line guy, which no one thinks he is.
I wrote a while ago about Iginla still having something left in the tank, and I think someone will go after him.
I mean who wouldn't want an 18 point guy that earns almost $6MM.
