So, did Connie just confirm there that we were drafting Iggy until Utah stole him?

I think you could interpret that both ways.
Scenario 1 we have Parekh ahead of Iginla and Catton and they think for sure Parekh will get grabbed by Utah, plus Ottawa or Seattle will also take a defenceman giving us one of Iginla/Catton. Then Utah takes Iginla and Ottawa surprisingly takes Yakemchuk over Parekh. Then Seattle also passes on defencemen for Catton awesomely leaving us Parekh!
Scenario 2 we have Parekh behind Iginla and Catton on our list and are hoping that Ottawa also takes a defenceman that has been speculated they were going to do, leaving us one of Iginla or Catton and then thanks to Utah and Seattle we had no option but to go Parekh, but one hell of an option to have.
