So, once again the summer is going to be a long one for us. But that doesn't mean we can't talk about hockey! I'm looking forward to see the players you pick! If you can find a good video about the player you choose that would be nice!
I'm going to start with Pavel Bure.
At 1:00, check-out the move on Lidström.
BTW, did you know that Bure was close to be a Red Wing?

The Detroit Red Wings had inquired to league vice president Gil Stein as to Bure's supposed availability prior to their fifth-round pick, but were told that he was not eligible. According to General Manager Ken Holland of the Detroit Red Wings, their European scout Christer Rockstrom insisted that the Wings select Bure while he was still available in the fifth round, but upon being told of his ineligibility the team selected Shawn McCosh instead. The Red Wings then decided they would select him with their sixth-round pick, 116th overall, "no matter what" and then settle his eligibility later. The Canucks selected Bure three picks ahead of Detroit's turn.
