Official 2006 NHL Entry Draft thread

Alright. It's starting very soon now, set to start at 4 PM MST. Post season deals consist of Luongo-Krajicek-6th rounder for Bertuzzi-Allen-Auld-Conditional pick, and now more recently, Atlanta sends Patrik Stefan and Jaroslav Modry to the stars for Niko Kapanen and a 7th round draft pick. It's going to start unfolding quick, as Nabokov rumours are abound, and Havlat is most likely going somewhere.

We know Blues will take Johnson. Why are they waiting? This guy will fill the Chris Pronger void, and maybe even partly the MacInnis void. He is supposed to be THAT good.

The Penguins would have been better off trading their pick to Colorado for defensive prospect Jack Johnson I think.
