the thing I don't understand is that if he wants to come back to the Canes next season, why would he want a contract extension with the team he's being traded to?

3/3/2010 12:24:39 PM

Scott Walker to Washington.

3/3/2010 12:25:52 PM

^^ So that we don't trade him.

3/3/2010 12:27:27 PM

wonder what return is

3/3/2010 12:27:48 PM

McKenzie says he would be shocked if we trade Whitney now.

3/3/2010 12:28:19 PM

holy fuck, a 7th for Walker!?! EPIC SALARY DUMP

3/3/2010 12:28:39 PM

7th round pick for Walker.

3/3/2010 12:28:40 PM

7th round pick

LOL

3/3/2010 12:28:45 PM

Updated current 2010 draft status:

Round 1, Pick 3
Round 2, Pick 3
Round 2, Pick 20
Round 2, Pick 21
Round 3, Pick 3
Round 4, Pick 11 (conditional, could become 2011 pick)
Round 5, Pick 19
Round 6, Pick 3
Round 7, Pick 3
Round 7, Pick 30

3/3/2010 12:31:24 PM

I guess we want to get NHLs Mr. Irrelevant in this yrs draft. Then again, Zetterberg was a 7th

3/3/2010 12:32:04 PM

wow, pick number 30 of the 7th round? is that the last pick in the entire draft?

3/3/2010 12:36:49 PM

That will probably change, though, because we all know Washington isn't going to win the Cup.

3/3/2010 12:37:43 PM

^^ The NHL draft is nine rounds.

3/3/2010 12:38:30 PM

wow, is walker really that worthless?

3/3/2010 12:38:50 PM

^^ not anymore

3/3/2010 12:39:18 PM

only 7 rounds after 2004

3/3/2010 12:39:23 PM

^ Yes. He can't do much and has a stupid contract.

3/3/2010 12:39:28 PM

Nope, draft is 7 rounds.

If Walker wasn't hurt basically the entire season he would have more value. He just played his first game back last night, and as great as he is in the locker room, let's face it, the guy hasn't shown he can get it done on the ice over the last couple years. Getting anything more than "future considerations" is a good return for us.

3/3/2010 12:40:08 PM

LOL

shows that the last draft i paid attention to all the way through was the one in raleigh

CHICKEN PARM!

3/3/2010 12:40:29 PM

how much salary have we dumped so far?

3/3/2010 12:40:35 PM

Just over 1 million for this year for todays deals

~2.1 counting Wallin/Cullen - Picard

3/3/2010 12:56:55 PM

Walker is on TSN/NHL Net now.

3/3/2010 1:02:15 PM

Walker apparently not hesistant at all to waive his NTC to go to Washington. Hope he does well because I like him, but fuck the Capitals.

3/3/2010 1:07:27 PM

the question, however, is IS SCOTT WALKER PLEASED?

3/3/2010 1:10:10 PM

he sounded super fucking pleased to me

3/3/2010 1:11:43 PM

yeah i can't see a veteran player at the end of his rope being upset about leaving a losing team to go to a winning team, especially one with the best player on the planet

3/3/2010 1:13:45 PM

Canadian Lou wants that ring.

3/3/2010 1:13:56 PM

i just found out bruce boudreau was a center and not a traffic barrel dman

it blew my mind

3/3/2010 1:15:37 PM

Facebook stupidity at potentially highest level ever.

3/3/2010 1:26:18 PM

"I'd buy my own plane ticket there" Scott Walker on TSN

**** ****** Does anyone else feel angry about these trades?! Whitney, Ward, and Walker are CANES! Period!

***** *** The people who are using their heads instead of their hearts aren't
angry. P.S. Ward has more Cups with the Wings than the Canes.
