GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP)—The Phoenix Coyotes have traded the rights to forward Jared Staal to the Carolina Hurricanes for a fifth-round pick in the upcoming NHL draft.

Staal had 12 goals and 37 assists in 59 games for Sudbury of the Ontario Hockey League this season. The 19-year-old has three brothers in the NHL, including Eric, who plays for Carolina. Staal was a second-round pick by the Coyotes in 2008.

Phoenix now has five picks in the draft, which will be June 25-26 in Los Angeles.

Jordan Staal(notes) plays for the Pittsburgh Penguins and Marc Staal(notes) for the New York Rangers.

Pretty cool. Never shown that he can be an every day player in the NHL, but we have done well with our young talent, so maybe we can help him improve. I'm sure it's a great position for him to succeed being as his brother is here and can mentor him more closely.

Marc Staal isn't necessarily a bad one either. Let's just say that all the Staal's are bred for hockey.

Take Eric Staal's athleticism and puck control, combine with Jordan Staal's checking ability and accuracy with his shots. Then, combine all that with the power of Marc Staal's shot. You have the perfect player. Amazing.

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
