Round 2 starts at 8:00AM PT for those of you that care. I think it's normally streamed on NHL.com but they're usually just talking 90% of the time about random picks and not showing every pick being made. There's also an updating draft list on the NHL website.

Capfriendly also updates their site in real time and is less annoying than NHL.com

Islanders are looking good after the first round, wow. Plus two reasonably early 2nds to use too.

Also, just from listening to Jim's interview with the local media post draft, like a kid on Christmas morning. You can tell that scouting and drafting is really his passion. Much different demeanor then when a season of losses beats him down.

(Even with the positivity of today, I'd still replace him given the opportunity.)

Very happy with the Hughes pick. Disappointed that another pick was not acquired, as there were some really good players available. I get that it takes two to tango, but it is still a little frustrating. Could still be some movement tomorrow with the likes of Nilsson and Baertschi.

Well it is official I am going to Deutschland for all remaining drafts, first Pettersson and now Hughes.

Reading the picks that was an extremely NFL-like draft with picking by need and not BPA

Ben Kuzma predicted Benning would go bonkers if Hughes fell to the Canucks or something like that.

They probably had him in the top 4.
