Just watched Waddell's post draft interview. Here are a few quotes I took from it.
"The more picks you have, the better your odds are"
"We thought it was right to move on from Bean since we had some younger guys moving up and he's been in the organization for 5 years now"
"We're open to anything at the goaltending position right now. We're looking for a starter and a good goalie would love to play behind our defense" This one is funny because he just traded away Bean, Hamilton may not come back, and I doubt Hakanpaa will either.
"We are approaching free agency very open minded. We have some ideas in mind."
"I'm very confident that by this time next week we'll have two very quality starting goaltender" I hope he doesn't mean just Bernier and Mrazek though it would be a shame if all we got for Ned is Hreschuk.
On Dougie contract - "Our hope is that we can resolve this in the next few days. We will talk to Dougie's agent tomorrow (now today). Our number one objective is to get him signed"
"We're fortunate to have an owner that is willing to spend the cap"
"We're gonna look at every free agent we can afford to sign and whoever is a good fit for us"
"I don't think a Svechnikov deal will happen by Wednesday"
