8. Coming from an Italian family, is your pre-game meal a nice plate of pasta and meatballs?

[laughs] Pretty much every meal growing up was a plate of pasta, so I'm pretty used to that even before games.

Eklund (or someone who Eklund is "quoting") seems to think the Flyers should nab him at #2:

Another source, "I would be shocked if the Habs do not move up and get Esposito." A few words about Angelo. I think the Flyers should jump on him at #2. I truly believe he is the player they need, and I have been saying for weeks that Angelo is being completely overlooked for his talents. I have talked to some people I really trust and they say he is "far and away" the most talented player in this draft, and due to the pressure he has been under by coming in so young and being touted so highly. He is the Phil Kessel of this draft and I believe is the most NHL ready now..

You better be trading up above #8.

I forgot to add ... hopefully.

He's taken a beating in the rankings ... I agree with the assessment in your post 100% ... with any luck he'll be overlooked till 12th.

Cats take him at number 10 I think

Seems like a good guy..says all the right things, at least. I hope the Habs do pick him (well, it depends on who else is available, but I wouldn't be mad at all if we wound up with Espo).
