I have a new bottle of vodka ready to crack open Friday night after the big Russian is picked!
Raleigh player expected to be drafted on Saturday

He's projected as a possible 3rd or 4th rounder. We gots no 3rd if I recall.
Guess he's looking for a real challenge - not just with the team & players but with the entire org.
Weird - Flames 1st pick not until 4th round.
I know some say Skinner is only a rental in the market, but talk about fan backlash, if he gets traded for picks, or something that's not "great" to the casual eye test.
Even if he's told them no way in hell will he resign, you can't give away your best goal scorer of the last several years.

I agree. I think it would be a mistake to trade Skinner now unless the return was very strong - I don't think you can extend the rental classification to a guy with a year left - this summer. That would be at the deadline. What is he worth at the deadline assuming he's having a decent season? It's gotta be quite a bit more than that now I'd think.
