also

good news is that they'll also probably get some stuff for LolMethot
bad news is that if they move anyone else, Miller might be next
and that Garrison, Sbisa, and maybe Emelin are all unmovable
Flower better get into FULL YOLO mode, or he's gonna have a real bad time

??? in on Miller (his name has been tossed around a lot)
might as well go allin on the bad and move McNabb as well, and then give Alzner $5M/year lol

Wasn't he also a super reach that high in the draft? IIRC the 2010 1st round had pretty decent talent. Seems he got super lucky to go that high and otherwise he'd have like half the career earnings he has now. Mbn.

but as i don't recall having any thoughts about him at the time, i decided to go take a look at what was said after i realized that this was the McIlrath draft, and remember there being chatter

Since the entry draft is coming up and it being one of my favourite events I figured I make my own mock draft.
Wrane's completely arbitrary draft predictions for ****s and giggles - following the mantra of drafting BPA.
Edmonton Oilers - Taylor Hall
Boston Bruins- Tyler Seguin
Florida Panthers - Cam Fowler
Columbus Blue Jackets - Brandon Gormley
New York Islanders - Ryan Johansen
Tampa Bay Lightning - Brett Connolly
Carolina Hurricanes - Erik Gudbranson
Atlanta Thrashers - Nino Niederreiter
Minnesota Wild - Austin Watson
New York Rangers - Vladimir Tarasenko
Dallas Stars - Alexander Burmistrov
Anaheim Ducks - Derek Forbort
Phoenix Coyotes - John MacFarland
St. Louis Blues - Mikael Gradlund
Boston Bruins - Emerson Etem
Ottawa Senators - Mark Pysyk
Colorado Avalanche - Quinton Howden
Nashville Predators - Evgeny Kuznetsov
Los Angeles Kings - Riley Sheahan
Pittsburgh Penguins - Jeff Skinner
Detroit Red Wings - Tyler Pitlick
Phoenix Coyotes - Jarred Tinordi
Buffalo Sabres - Jaden Shwartz
Atlanta Thrashers - Alex Petrovic
Vancouver Canucks - Dylan Mcllrath
Washington Capitals - Brock Nelson
Montreal Canadiens - Ludvig Rensfeldt
San Jose Sharks - Calle Jarnkrok
Anaheim Ducks - Jon Merrill
Chicago Blackhawks - Ryan Spooner
I'm not going to lie, by the time I hit Pittsburgh I didn't know any of them well enough and just started to cross-reference from different mock drafts. That said, in a couple of years look out for Kirill Kabanov (ranked #38) and Teemu Pulkkinen (#50). I've seen them play once a couple years ago and they caught my eye and I'm sticking to them. Plus I've read some good things - which is enough for a crapshoot anyways.

lol @ the Canucks taking Mcllrath tho
image is gone, but i assume this was a negative reaction to a mock having Mcllrath going to the Rag$

I'd be surprised if MacFarland went before Skinner, but I'd be pretty stoked if Skinner was available at our pick. He has excellent goal-scoring potential.
Kabanov is obviously the most intriguing player at the draft. A top 5 talent that will likely fall out of the first round due to being one of the biggest primadonnas anybody has ever seen at that age. I wouldn't be surprised if a team with a lot of picks in the first two rounds takes a chance on him though, like Boston.

(only real reaction to Gudbranson here)
(though Johansen is pretty good)
hmm
sounds about right
nope
wait for it...
wait for it...
low blow
(i've done this McIlrath thing before, but it never really stops being funny)
and nice Goatasenko shoutout ^
think these were about the Blues taking Goatasenko

whats up whats up everybody,
so taylor hall got selected number one overall by the Edmonton Oilers, thumbs up, i predicted that he would go first. of course tyler seguin gets selected number two overall by the Boston Bruins which they got from the phil kessel trade with toronto. another thumbs up to the bruins, smart choice. i think hall is a better all round player than seguin. he has one, a better shot, two, better skating, and three, better offensive capabilities. nothing against seguin, he is a good choice too. however i was a little surprised that brandon gormley of the moncton wildcats and cam fowler of the windsor spitfires fell as far as they did. i had gormley going 4th and fowler 5th but you know, you can't always be right. nothing else much worth mentioning except the vancouver canucks traded steve bernier, a prospect and first overall pick for keith ballard and another prospect whose name i cannot pronounce. thumbs up and a good trade for vancouver in my opinion, they get a good defensemen and did not really lose anything important.

Sounds like another big Arizona trade is in works. Raanta and Stepan likely to Coyotes. 7th overall could be part of it and DeAngelo.

As @DarrenDreger reported, it's Stepan and Raanta to ARI for DeAngelo and No. 7 overall pick
