From my card dealerHedberg said:Do you have any information on the card show? All I know is that Upper Deck is there.
Apparently if you buy five packs of Upper Deck product, who will recieve a special 6 card set of former #1 draft pickspunk_o_holic said:From my card dealer
The card show starts at 1:30pm PST and goes until 2:45pm PST. The First Round of the draft is to run from 3:00pm-6:00pm, and once it has completed, the booths for the card show will re-open until. There will be other dealers there other tehn Upper Deck. Its at the concourse?

Predatore said:don't like the starting time. It means that the draft will start at midnight here in Sweden.. and probably not be over until morning. I have some heavy coffee drinking ahead of me next weekend
Duff88 said:You guys think this is bad? June 24th is the day of the St-Jean Baptiste which happens to be the national holiday here in Quebec (no politics here please), which means instead of drinking with my friends I'm going to be in my house, alone, watching the NHL draft...
At least by 10PM the first and second rounds should be done, hopefully not everyone is drunk by that time.
The only positive point I can see is that if the NHL keeps it's NHL Draft on Saturdays the next time this is going to happen is in 2017.

Yes. And the NHL On the Fly's draft coverage isn't live, it's usually a repeat of the first round.CanadianPantherFan said:On my guide,the NHL network is showing the draft same time as TSN. Same feed I assume.

Boomhower said:Which country is this?
Another question. What is the format this season?? IN past seasons they did the first 3 rounds on day 1 and the rest of the draft on day 2 (Sunday).
Will they only do 1 round on Saturday night?
