Tkachuck and Elliot.
Pretty awesome draft day. Let's see if Brad has anymore magic up his sleeves.
If the oilers don't trade for at least 2 defencemen, they will be right up on that podium again next year picking top 5. It's sad really.
Price for Elliott is more feasible than the others. Well done.
Can't believe Tkachuk dropped a couple of spaces. Well done.
Proven playoff performer goalie is exactly what we need!
I can't believe it
I'm so stoked, Tkachuck and Elliot is exactly what I wanted the Flames to get. This is going to be a great season

So what happens with Ramo and Backstrom now?
Sig nuked by mod.
Both UFAs, so they're good as gone. I believe Backstrom signed with a European team already, not sure on that.Originally posted by adam c

Hiller can stay in Europe 's far as I'm concerned.... Let's keep ramo as a backup

Yeah Backstrom signed with a team in his home country, he's donezo.
I'd rather let Ramo walk, don't want any more #1 goalie competition any more.
Man, what a great night. I was hoping we'd pick Nylander, but only because I never expected Tkachuk to be available at 6th.
Getting Elliott was also better than any other option by a long shot, both in terms of what we gave up to get him and the cap hit he comes with. I hope he pans out.
Both MAF and Bishop would have definitely cost us the 6th and come with a big cap hit and MAF has had concussion issues the last couple of years.
Reimer would have been the next best option as a UFA target, but it sounds like he wants a pay day, which he isn't worth considering he's got that re-occurring groin injury and has yet to play a full season. At ~$4M AAV for a couple years, he could be worth a look though.
I knew about Hiller to Europe, but you asked about Ramo and Backstrom.Originally posted by adam c

Las Vegas is gonna pick up a really good goalie for their expansion draft. Suck it, Pittsburgh and Tampa.
