...we have no luck with our draft

Yup Sedins, Kesler, Schneider all suck as well :troll:

5 players in 14 years. Yup, our drafting does suck.

2008 1 10 Cody Hodgson
2006 1 15 Michael Grabner
2005 1 10 Luc Bourdon
2005 2 51 Mason Raymond
2004 1 26 Cory Schneider
2004 3 91 Alexander Edler
2004 9 287 Jannik Hansen
2003 1 23 Ryan Kesler
2001 5 151 Kevin Bieksa
1999 1 2 Daniel Sedin
1999 1 3 Henrik Sedin

thats about it as far as notable draft picks go. doesn't help that we havent had an under 10 first round pick since the sedins. and our two easrliest picks were luc bourdon and coho both at 10

maybe its just a typo but daniel was actually a 2nd overall pick.

Luc :QQ:

its interesting how retardedly deep the 03 draft year was. it was so deep that if you didn't get an all star you should be embarrased. yet in 04, after AO and malkin, edler might be one of the better picks, and we got 3 solid guys from that draft

Edler was red wings pick we over heard a scout and stole him. Our scout still sucks.

reports from twitter is that Iginla is a healthy scratch
including form the flames official twitterfeed

Hm, so the question isn't when will a trade happen, now it's where is he off to?

Boston
very likely its Boston now
Mckenzie reporting rumors of movement within the roster there as well

Aw man, Iginla (a highly respected veteran), don't go to a douchey team like the Boston Bruins!

It's better for the Nucks if Iggy goes to the Bruins, as opposed to the Kings or Hawks

Either way, the Pens and Bruins are gonna be fucking stacked

All but one player in the first round of that 03 draft has played in the NHL. The lone exception is Hugh Jessiman, drafted 12th overall by the NYR, and passing players like Dustin Brown (13), Seabrook (14), Parise (17), Getzlaf (19!!!)

The first 2 rounds were deep, then after that it was your usual crapshoot. Quick trivia note: Brian Elliot was the second-to-last player to be picked at 291st overall

If Boston, I'm guessing they're asking for 1st, Khokhlachev and someone like Jared Knight/Craig Cunningham.

Further rumours. Hm, not sure about Bartowski. I hope that's not the trade.

Bobby Mac on TSN says Bartkowski, Khoklachev and 1st for Iginla is imminent according to sources close to the Bruins. Not confirmed, he says

this boston vs montreal game in insane

Even Hugh Jessiman has played now. He played 2 games in 2010-11 season. :lol

That doesn't sound like a lot for Iggy. I consider myself a pretty big hockey fan and I've never heard of those 2. I'd tell Cherelli Dougie Hamilton for Iggy. Take it or leave it.

Is Iginla really even that good anymore? Seems a little bit overrated at this point....

Are you serious?

.....am I serious when I'm asking if he's really that good? Yes, why not? Completely valid question....quite possible that he's a bit overrated, especially at 35....

The return doesn't seem all that good.

When I saw the first rated prospect and the second, I was expecting so much more.
