Making a cummulative place for any news.

NHL Draft over. I'm disappointed that we didn't trade up, but it looks like no one was biting this year. Stars traded down & out of the first round, took 3 picks in the second, one in the third, & 7 today in the late rounds. Here are some notes about the picks. No one exciting really, but I really like this Texas Tornado player we took at 99. Here's what ESPN said about him:

"Matt Nickerson is the biggest (6-5/223), meanest, nastiest S.O.B. in this year's draft. He will be the most sought after 'enforcer' type in this year's lottery."

Bingo. Derian Hatcher, the next generation.

Bad news about not dumping salary w/draft day trades. Will we have enough to resign Hatch? July 1 is looming.
