Default So, I'm going to the draft...

...and I have an extra ticket if anyone is planning on being in Sunrise Florida roughly 2 weeks from now. I had a buddy of mine that was going to join me, but that fell through, and there really aren't a whole lot of hockey fans in South Florida passionate enough to go to an entry draft.

Round 1 begins at 7 pm on June 26th. Rounds 2-7 begin at 10 am the next morning.

If anyone is interested in joining me, respond here or PM me.

Remember to boo Chiarelli and the Oilers with gusto.

Try and peg Katz Jr. in his stupid mophead hair cut. Sick and tired of seeing him on the stage every year... the little jerk.

That's cool that you are going. Highly unlikely I will be there, but my wife entered me into a contest for a trip down there for the draft.

If I make it, you'll be the guy that looks exactly like Ron Swanson, right?

I would love to go. I'll actually be in Orlando that whole week. Sadly, I need to be back in Alberta for a family wedding on the weekend of the draft.

lol, I always assumed Cali was Ron Swanson. Doing those epic GDTs seems like the perfect way to waste time at a government job.

I hate when fans boo him. I get he's not popular, but how would you like it if 20,000 people boo you EVERY time you talked... I feel bad for the guy and am embarrassed for hockey fans when it happens.

He probably gets over it by swimming in the ocean of money that's inside his Scrooge McDuckian vault. I know that's what I'd do.

It's a sports tradition to boo commissioners, not a hockey one. It's not just Bettman either, David Stern, probably the greatest commissioner in sports history, was so used to it by the end of his tenure, he'd just smile.

The best thing about Bettman being boo'd is the way he reacts. His smug little smile and head wiggle saying the cities name followed by "..I love your passion" always cracks me up.

Bring some high powered binoculars and see if you can zoom in on some of the tables, notes/lists.
