That Vegas deal is bad. I wouldn't do the deal if I was vegas even if Staal wasn't involved. Why take so much old expansive players. For a team to do that you would have to play huge more than a !st.

Mcniven is the Chl goaler of the years so is a futur #1

There is a reason why most very smart hockey guys say to not draft goalies inside the first 3 rounds. They are Voodoo and are very very hard to predicted development. No team is giving a junior goalie that kind of value. Goalie are just to unpredictable. Case in point in the last 20 years there has been 2 true number 1 goalies out of the CHL goalie of the year winners. And its a stretch to call Ward a true number 1 but I will for this. Price is really the only game changer.
