NJDevs4978 Posted June 21, 2003 Share Posted June 21, 2003 I know it's still two hours away but I figured might as well start the thread while I'm still here. I won't be around for the festivities this afternoon but I will tape it, and come here/and the front page for a summation of everything later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elias Sports Bureau Posted June 21, 2003 Share Posted June 21, 2003 It's gonna be worth watching just to see everyone have to congratulate the Devils. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammyk Posted June 21, 2003 Share Posted June 21, 2003 After the Devils make their pick, the expressions will be one or all of the following: Although Lou will have this one: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDF Posted June 21, 2003 Share Posted June 21, 2003 To say that i trust Lou and Conte on draft day is an understatement. Best player available is fine with me...but the two second rounders is where i expect the Devils to get a steal in the draft. GO DEVILS!!!

NJDF Posted June 21, 2003 Share Posted June 21, 2003 CNN/SI seems to have the best draft coverage. Here's the link: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/hockey/ne...ews/2003_draft/ GO DEVILS!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triumph Posted June 21, 2003 Share Posted June 21, 2003 Carolina traded David Tanabe and Igor Knyazev to Phoenix for Danny Markov and a conditional pick. Interesting deal, Tanabe's a great skater but has shown little else, Knyazev is supposed to be a #4 or #5 defenseman.. and Markov is a solid defenseman who will take Glen Wesley's minutes.

Beck27 Posted June 21, 2003 Share Posted June 21, 2003 Tanabe is a guy I thought would have had an impact by now. Talk about a big shot and wheels...I guess he still hasn't learned the NHL game. Very surprising Phoenix dealt Markov, who's developing into a very good defenseman. That's one guy I bet the maple laughs would love to have back.

'7' Posted June 21, 2003 Share Posted June 21, 2003 Tanabe is very overrated. He's got good speed but his puckhandling skills are poor and his shot never hits the net. He also wins the Tim Hunter award as the ugliest player in the NHL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
