Wow! Backlund! I've actually heard of him...

Im surprised we went with a center. Guess the guys felt he was the best player available...

I'm good with this. I would have preferred Petrecki, but who really knows what player will be best in four years?

They even had his jersey ready!

Guess Sutter did know what he was doing.

Cue the board's personal draft experts to explain why Sutter is dumb.

Notes from Mckeens:
- Top notch skater loaded with skill, intelligence and leaderhship
- well rounded package any NHL coach would desire
- Stock dropped in part due to knee injury

The jersey even has his name and everything. Good pick and glad he was still available.
