Will there be anyone in South Florida to boo him anyways? I'm sure those 500 passionate Panther fans will make a lot of noise

Well after the Oilers pick McDavid and you've thrown shoes at Katz kid, yell out Eichels better. Since it will likely be you, and the families of the kids attending the draft, pretty good chance they'll hear you.

Roger Goodell definitely deserves to be booed everywhere he goes.

Bah, skip the wedding, nobody will notice.

Start a "Eichels better" chant before the Oilers go up to select.

I was just kidding. But hey I admire your passion for defending Gary Bettman.

UPDATE: After the birth of my first child last Thursday with an emergency c-section, I don't see any way I would actually leave my house for any length of time in the near future. So obviously I won't be going to the draft, but I still have tickets if anyone wants them, free of charge. Just PM me. If I don't hear anything within 48 hours I will donate the tickets to charity.

That's awesome Cali, that you're willing to give the tickets away and that you're staying home with your family. I hope everything is going good for you guys and I hope whoever goes to the draft has a blast!

Nobody has responded yet, so I imagine that nobody will be in the area to attend. I'll donate them to charity today.

And in case anyone is interested, mom is recovering well from the c-section and baby is only 2 ounces off his birth weight and feeding well. Everyone is happy and healthy!

Take the baby to the Draft. In 18 years, when he gets drafted, Cyborg-Pierre Mcguire will have a field day showing the picture of the two of you at this year's draft then sitting together waiting for him to get picked.

"Born to be drafted." The story writes itself.

You'll recognize Edmonton's table as their notes will be in crayon.

I think that is why the entire scouting staff got let go. They kept showing up to the meetings with the Hockey news draft issue.
