Norm!
I guess Edmonton is going to have to go past the cover in the Hockey News Draft special.

You could hear the happiness in Bettman's voice. Crisis averted with him not going to Edmonton.

I love that everyone (including Lafrieniere) just dropped the pretense that he hasn't been picked yet.

Yeah this.
Good for the league in NY and doesn't negatively effect us much

The most competitive division in the NHL just got a little stronger.
Lafreniere-Zibanajad-Panarin
Kaako
Fox
That is a solid foundation to build on.

I haven't stayed tuned to see Lafreniere's reaction, but I'm betting he looks happier than the 2015 first pick.
Meanwhile, in Edmonton:

Pretty sure Staples is frantically thumping out another twitter gem.

HFBoards must have crashed. Must have been too much salt.
Wanted to go have a look and lick some salty tears.

I am not happy about the Rangers. Minnesota, nashville or florida would been better to spark those markets.
Hfboards is down

I loved the fact that when they showed the GM's they all had pictures on their walls or keep sakes. Holland didn't, why unpack as long as their skype membership is up to date?

NYR is fine by me. Just a relief it's not the Oilers. Lafreniere must be loving it though. Could you pick a better city to go be a young superstar in?

How good is lafrienere? He carried canada to wjc gold as an underager on one foot. As good as MacDavid?

I'm okay with the Rangers winning, they were good for a while, haven't had a first overall pick, and a top star in New York would be good for the league.
Only think I don't like is that Rangers do the shady college UFA thing where players only want to sign there sometimes, so that's annoying.
No Edmonton, No Winnipeg (would have sucked for team Flames beat to get 1st overall), No Toronto....all good to me

Man sucks for Jersey having both Van and ARI win their play ins. Those picks were both looking like top 15 before that happened.
