2012 NHL Draft Thread (All Hurricanes Picks)


Recommended Posts

Look alive hockey fans, the first round of the 2012 NHL Draft takes place at 7 p.m. tonight on the NBC Sports Network.

The Hurricanes hold the 8th overall pick in the draft tonight and they are said to be interested in taking 17 year old left wing: Teuvo Teravainen, 18 year old center: Radek Faksa, or 18 year old center: Mikhail Grigorenko.

There are also rumors that the Canes may trade the pick along with some players to acquire Jordan Staal from the Pittsburgh Penguins.

So here's to acquiring one of these four players tonight.

    • lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

    • Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
