Quote4:51: The Oilers use the sixth pick on Sam Gagner (son of Dave). We're now six-for-six for two-parent families at the NHL draft -- a higher total than the last five years of the NBA draft combined.

St. Louis Blues President John Davidson announced today the team has acquired the rights to center Keith Tkachuk from the Atlanta Thrashers along with a conditional 4th round draft choice in 2008 (which could become a 3rd round choice in 2009) in exchange for a conditional 1st round draft choice in 2008 (previously acquired from Atlanta on Feb. 25, 2007).

"We have acquired the rights to Keith Tkachuk which gives us exclusive negotiating rights with him and his family prior to becoming an unrestricted free agent on July 1," said Davidson.  "Keith has played a major part for the Blues organization over the past seven seasons and played some of his finest hockey under Head Coach Andy Murray."

The Blues traded Tkachuk to Atlanta in exchange for a first round draft choice in 2007, a third round draft choice in 2007, a second round draft choice in 2008 and forward Glen Metropolit on Feb. 25, 2007.

How much productivity does Tkachuk have left at 35 years old?

Then again, the Thrashers basically paid a king's ransom to rent Tkachuk for the playoffs.  Well done, Thrashers.

#875
Mark Messier, Ron Francis, Al MacInnis and Scott Stevens were elected to the ice hockey Hall of Fame on Thursday

Quote
All four players elected were on the Hall of Fame ballot for the first time. Other eligible players who didn't make it included Adam Oates, Igor Larionov and Claude Lemieux.

Francis, a two-time Stanley Cup winner and veteran of 23 NHL seasons, is fourth on the points list and trails only Gretzky on the all-time assists list.

MacInnis, another 23-season veteran, is third all-time in points by defensemen and helped Calgary to the Stanley Cup in 1989. And Stevens won three Cups with the New Jersey Devils.

Congrats, Chopper!

Ducks sign Bertuzzi.

It's bad enough there is a team named after a crappy Disney movie but how embarrasing is it that they'll probably win another one.
