Still think Patrick should go #1

Still think Patrick should go #1

Me too.

Also still think this is a strong draft there's just no immediate stars.

Nothing against Patrick but how much would that be because he is Canadian? Kopitar went where he went because he was Slovenian. Switzerland is a more proven hockey country than Slovenia but still.

Probably in the 0 to 0.7% range.

 

[SensBrawler]

They have the anthems before the draft? WTF?

Just the Canadian and American ones. This is so awkward.

Agreed. There's some good talent in the middle of the 1st and beyond.

 

[TheSituation]

This is dumb. The anthems before the draft???

 

[Leafidelity]

Draft anthems???

 

[Cassano]

Alfie wearing a Blackhawks jersey

Absolutely does not factor into it at all. I don't care about nationality when it comes to who I think the BPA is.

I have Dr. Drai who is German as my avatar

Well its Chicago ,, Are you surprised about this intro?

The hawks probably pay him for so many appearances per year and had a few in the bank after being jacked in the first round

 

[Cotton]

That was super cringy.

 

[Cult of Hynes]

Man, I hope Shero doesn't trade the pick haha.

 

[TMLeafer]

Legitimately the first time I've seen that. The idea never even crossed my mind.

 

[snipes]

Pretty cool intro.

 

[Cassano]

Sav.

 

[Ollie Weeks]

That was super cringy.

Honestly, which part?

Jim Cornelison did a good job getting everyone fired up for the draft lol.

Even sung the bilingual version of Oh Canada

No, not you dummy.

I was thinking from Devils' perspective.

 

[The Grim Reaper]

Being a fan of hockey since the 90's, it's sad to see how far NJ has fallen. Hopefully this is the first step to get their franchise back on track. Don't **** it up Shero.

 

[snipes]

No, not you dummy.

I was thinking from Devils' perspective.

I was saying my opinion about who should go #1 so I thought you were assuming it's because he's Canadian I thought that. I reread your post, that's my bad.

 

[Tripod]

No, not you dummy.

They just traded for a Swiss player. It doesn't matter.
