Calgary likely won’t reach for Iginla with their own 1st. More likely if they pick him it will be with a later 1st they get from a Lindholm or Hanifin deal.

Can’t they? The way it’s worded, it just says “a first round pick”

I know it’s a reach but I doubt Iginla would be available in the bottom half of the draft, and with how he’s been playing, by the end of the season, it may not be much of a reach at all.

Wow…Sharks and Hawks clean up

SJS: Celebrini, Connelley
CHI: Levshunov, Helenius

MBN good pick for NJD…(but picking at #16 is not ideal)

Think sharks might package the PIT pick with a prospect or a other pick to move up a few spots to grab Yakemchuk if possible

It’s their own and they can choose between the 24, 25, & 26 pick

If they can get Connelly at #15, it’s a win. Probably best skater in draft. There plenty of good dmen in 20-50 range. (Hopefully NJD is sending them 29-32 pick too).

I’m not saying your wrong, but RD is the sharks most Glairing weakness and a guy like Yakemchuk would go a long way in fixing that

If Demidov is available, there’s no way we take a LHD
