Only real drama I see with the qualifying offers is does Petrov get one to keep his NHL rights as trade bait? Alan Quine I fully expect to be on next years team, same with Shane Prince, who would be wise to simply accept the offer, have a good season, and cash-in next summer. ********************************* With only two forward prospects both unsigned entering the draft, Snow had a good weekend stocking the forwards.
#isles Velli-Pekka Kautonen had a good weekend leading his first draft. Tough job following Trent Klatt.

#isles Bottom line: Six prospects (five forwards/one defender gained) 4th-6th round pick in 2017 lost.
