Great talk w/ @Woodguy55. Agree with most points.
Disagree on one. If Tipp had reunited Drai, Yamo, RNH, they would score at same high level but defend far better, as puck always in Chi end. As for McD, good 2-way with Neal & Kass. https://t.co/9XX0PMQITN
This is the kind of argument you make when you can't defend a man's record.
@JonathanWillis Johnathan Willas, James Mirtle who? Not a reach to suggest neither would and didn't say that to his face ...
Best of the best.
Thank you, @TSNBobMcKenzie! 👏 https://t.co/re106N5TH1
No comment. Not necessary.
The Leafs 2020 first-round pick now moves to Carolina due to the Patrick Marleau salary dump. 13th overall. Not a great 24 hours.

RT @ScottRintoul: @JasonGregor and teams with the first pick aren't guaranteed the best player... think the Avs and Canucks are upset they fell to 4 & 5 three years ago and landed Makar and Pettersson??? Long way to go before we fully evaluate that draft, but it's looking just fine these days...
Oilers Lotto Bid Falls Flat
Can they win anything?! https://t.co/huNUQu0Myi
Bad teams aren’t guaranteed 1st pick. Buffalo didn’t... Ottawa didn’t.
The pick which won original lottery was 12th... (WPG at time with .563P%) The Rangers had .564. They likely were going to miss playoffs. Point of lottery is no guarantee worst team gets #1 pick. I like it.
The Draft Lottery is what it is...the league set the ground rules months ago...and few, if any objected. But the reality is that Detroit, who had 23 less points than any other team, should have the #1 pick.
End of story.
Here are your top 15 picks in the 2020 NHL Draft:
1. Rangers
2. Kings
3. Senators (from Sharks)
4. Red Wings
5. Senators
6. Ducks
7. Devils
8. Sabres
9. Wild
10. Jets
11. Predators
12. Panthers
13. Hurricanes (from Maple Leafs)
14. Oilers
15. Penguins (optional to Wild)
"The reason Russian goalies are so attractive is they aren't overcoached at a young age. They develop innate movements. They work a lot on skating. He moves exceptionally, but I don't love his hands. He doesn't control pucks as well as I'd like." Woodley on Askarov
Can we all just be happy the Oilers didn’t get it again and move on?
So the NY Rangers win the NHL Draft Lottery? The NHL keeps coming out of this looking good. Can you imagine the outrage if Pittsburgh, Edmonton or Toronto had won?
RT @TSN1260: Is there any chance the Rangers could pass on Lafrenière? We asked @chrismpeters, among other things. Full interview at the link below!

In 2004 the Oilers had the 14th pick...they selected goalie Devan Dubnyk.
They have 14th pick this year. If he is available, should they pick goalie Yaroslav Askarov? We discuss with @KevinisInGoal now on @TSN1260 https://t.co/l2KJPMoDku
Huge amount of talent available at forward will be there for #Oilers all 14th overall.
Quinn or Mercer or Jarvis or Zary or Mysak or some other excellent attacker.
Who you hoping for now?
@TheOilKnight @Josephk90
I know nobody wanted the Oilers to win, but Bettman high-fiving the lottery machine was a little much.
Fixed!
Just kidding.
Glad it was the Rangers. Great hockey city, great team and tradition.
Thank god for the NHL having the commissioner confirm the logos of the teams on the ping pong balls that was well worth my time
Yeah...but are we absolutely *positive* that’s the logo of the New York Rangers?
IMO the @EdmontonOilers need a FWD at #14
These names might be there:
Seth Jarvis-RW, Portland
Dawson Mercer-RW, Drummondville
Anton Lundell-C, HIFK
Hendrix Lapierre-C, Chicoutimi
John-Jason Peterka-LW, EHC Munchen
Connor Zary-C, Kamloops
Wild Card:
Yaroslav Askarov- G, KHL
