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.

    • If you want attention to something, I feel like the report button works better than just saying mods in the thread.  I assume it sends them an alert, as I doubt they just continuously watch this place.   Just trying to help, if you actually see something somewhere that needs intervention or you feel this does.
    • Yes, in the absence of your big brain, those points have been discussed ad nauseum around here. Most stable individuals can see that the org sucks since Tepper took over. We can’t change that fact so we debate Bryce’s viability as a QB into oblivion. Bryce has shown the occasional flash but it is year 3 and decisions have to be made. I personally don’t think he’s cut out for this but as a fan of the Panthers I hope that somehow it works.
    • I agree that perspective is important.  I also think that it's fine to take the wins when you can.  So the Panthers have started playing a lot better against bad teams after the first couple of weeks.  Cool, I'll take that.  Will it continue?  I don't know.  The Jets could be the uber trap/Steve Wilks revenge buzzsaw that sucks all the life and wind out of us.  Or we could beat them and the narrative still wouldn't change because they are a really bad team. Here's my long perspective:  We've been one of the worst teams since we traded for Bryce - talent level, wins, etc.  Any metric will show that.  This year, we are improving.  Maybe we're not bottom tier trash.  Maybe we're just to below average.  That's growth as far as I'm concerned.  I'll take that.
