Confirmed

(Thanks for being patient, Josh...I just sent you the deal on CBS)

[Sensfanjosh]

No worries man, good talks.

[Shep]

hmm.

Don't think it should have cost that much to lock up long-shot NHL goaltending prospects to shoreup your EDM system.

But, that's just me.

[Shoalzie]

I can see where you're coming from.

As it's been said by many, this draft isn't all the deep past the top few picks...but still a top 20-25 pick isn't something to sneeze at so he potentially gets the best piece in the deal. He made a savvy move to jump on Roy when I hinted that I was thinking about pursuing the Oilers system with Khabibulin entering the final year of his deal. He spent a 2nd and 3rd to get Roy so that's where some of the price comes from. I wasn't going to pay him much more than what I paid.

It looks bad because that's the only 1st I have this year but what 1st is going to make an impact for me right away? Nobody outside of the top 10, I don't think. Only I would've paid that much for those two particular guys given who I have.

That 1st could have gotten you a guy like Joe Morrow. You don't think you can stand to wait a year to find out if the guy you got was decent enough to almost make the team and will certainly do so the following season? Come on.

[Shoalzie]

Is it that much worse than throwing away a 2nd rounder on a bet?

Believe me, I'll be curious to see what happens with that pick for Josh. If I had different assets, I probably would've offered him something different. Two 2nd rounders would've been my preferred price...we'll see how it goes. I don't blame anyone for raising an eyebrow in curiousity...but do you own Edmonton's NHL goalies? I obviously don't pursue these two guys if I didn't own Dubnyk and Khabibulin.
