Tolvanen for the Fife-ster, that's a steal at 30th overall.

Damn right could be the best shooter in the draft, right after losing Neal, the hockey gods sure love the Preds. So close Avs, yet so far away.

Indeed, shoots like Tarasenko.

Klim Kostin, had an off year, but should be another steal, top ranked skater in Europe, only goes 31st overall cause he's Russian.

Klim Kostin was still on the board too, and we also just missed out on him? Motherfucker.

He's a top 10 pick who dropped due to the Russian factor, no wonder St. Louis made the trade, where was your boy Sakic? That cost St. Louis nothing.

Not listening to my plea for common sense obviously missing out on both Tolvanen and Kostin when they were right there for the taking. I'm cheesed, and of course he couldn't move Duchene, it's well passed time we fired his ass, he has no idea what he's doing.

I'm cheesed, Kostin is the Russian Nolan Patrick, the Leafs should have made that trade. 59th overall and a bucket of pucks, done and done.

Upsetting stuff. Pittsburgh so dumb, how don't they get more for that? Better yet why not keep the damn pick and make that selection, morons.

[Smitty-48]

Leafs need a goalie now, here's hoping Petruzzelli is still around at 59th, still, Kim Klostin is a poor man's Malkin, yeah, Russian factor, but the upside tho, at 31st overall, Pittsburg what where you thinking?

[StCapps]

By my count, that's 29 teams in the NHL who fucked up, 27 of them for not trading up for the 30th or 31st pick and 1 of them (The Pens) for trading the pick away. Pittsburgh that's epic awful, you're the worst of the bunch trading away that pick for nothing.

Nashville and St. Louis are laughing all the way to the bank, especially well played by St. Louis for pulling off what a pleaded with the Avs to pull off.

[Smitty-48]

He's not that far off neither, he'll be playing with Taresenko before you know it, he's already playing against men, he's already 6'3" 210lbs.
