After all the dry interviews before him, his "I'm the best looking guy here, so I thought I may as well dress like it" was refreshing.

e: Whoops, it was "so I thought I may as well be the best dressed too". Even better energy.

Shane Wright going 4OA had 41 to 1 odds, so I put down a $2.50 bet for laughs and won $100. This draft kicked rear end.

Before Round 1 got under way at the Bell Centre, the talk was the New Jersey Devils made a pitch to the Flames for Tkachuk that included the No. 2 selection overall. The deal didn’t come to fruition and the Flames went out of their way to try to shut down any Tkachuk talk.

I got drunk and missed the draft (a shameful OP!) but overall, I'm pretty drat happy with the Wild's showing!

Ohgren wasn't high on my list, but I've got full confidence in Brackett. Sounds like a post-Moose fit on the GREEF line.

Love the Yurov pick, too. Also deeply jealous of the Winnipeg draft, which is basically precisely what I wanted coming in.

On a good note, the Canucks used their 80th overall draft pick to select Elias Pettersson.

Vancouver's broadcast teams are already used to having to specify which player with a similar name has the puck at any time, so this should be a breeze for them.

I'm of two minds on the topic.. on one hand Tampa Bay has had a tremendous amount of success featuring a blueline where 6'-1" 215 pound Ryan McDonagh was the small guy.

On the other hand, literally every other team that tries this crap blows up.

I am choosing to remain optimistic that the Stars scouts aren't bullshitting when they claim he's a much more dynamic player than the Jamie Oleksiaks and Jani Hakanpaas of the world.. If they can get a useful 2nd pairing defender that plays 20 minutes a night and does the dirty work for the team I guess that's a major success.

I would feel better about the pick if the Stars were doing bpa on day 2 and not taking a defenseman with every selection (including a guy who will turn 20 in November with their last selection in the 4th round)
