1988/1989 Draft
This year starts with a bang, Roy goes to Montreal, whilst Kurri gose to the Devils. Three player retire and get their numbers retire by the Rangers, Tallon, Redmond and Unger. Redmond had a 101 goal season and scored 2300 career points, Unger, stayed his entire NHL career with us and scored 1803 points, in 1707 games, Tallon scored 700 odd point in 800 games for us with 2 100 point seasons in 11 seasons.
This draft is a good one for us to miss, Sundin, Bure Weight all unavailable, Reichel Draper and Primeau not the players we need. Adam Foote only decent def, which we don't need. Potvin the best goalie in the draft.
Get Stephane Richer for Vaive and right to Brett Hedican. then Peter Bondra for Kerr. We have 13th and 14th picks in this draft but will trade them away, if nothing available.
1 Weight(Hrtd)
2 Bure (Cgy)
3 Sundin(NYI)
4 Ruccin (Pit)
5 Draper(Tor)
6 Primeau (Win)
7 Conroy (Mon)
8 Sillinger (LAK)

10 Potvin(Buf)
11 Reichel (Phil)
12Salo(Mon)
13 Nedved(NYR)
14 Foote (NYR)

Had a choice to get another gk instead of Foote, but no need with Richter/Fuhr in net. But Nedved was a great acquisition, didn't see him at first. Finally have the centers i require.
