Caps pick Justin Taylor at 180, a center from the London Knights. Red Line has him at 297 and lists him at 6′, 192. At 185, the Caps pick Nick Larson, a 6′1″, 180 pound forward from Apple Valley. Larson’s off to Minnesota next season.

We have a trade, as the Ducks send twice-drafted Tim Brent to Pittsburgh for Stephen Dixon.

Florida asks for time. Gets booed.

And with their last pick the Caps take Andrew Glass. ranked 259 by Red line, he’s listed as a 5′11″, 180 lbs left wing. He’s set to go to Boston University next season.

    Empty - thanks for the updates

    Has it been confirmed that the Jurcina trade is a 4th in 08? At the time of the trade, Tarik El-Bashir reported that it was conditional and there was a small chance it could be a third depending on playing time and games played, etc.

    sounds like Dunn is headed to St Cloud St, interesting since Weslosky is headed into his soph season

    yeah, Albert is from Ohio and headed to OSU so no surprise that he is there with support as a later pick (he played for the US NTDP)

    Looks like the people who said there would be a lot of trades were way off.

    The Dunn pick is pretty intriguing.

    It’ll be really interesting to see how these kids progress. What a crapshoot, though.

    Btw, Glass is headed to BU in ‘08. I’m guessing he’ll play in the USHL next season.

    Thanks so much for your coverage of the draft. You were right there with info for each player drafted.
    You commentary was subtle and beautiful…”Caps pick Karl Alzner, and I like the pick. It’s definitely not unanimous.” I live for that stuff.
    You have a new fan.

    Great job empty.

    BTW, that incident with the girl in Saginaw that Turqato plead guilty to really must have turned teams off selecting him.
