The NHL Draft is... Kind of a Bummer

Okay Rudy dear, I think you need to take lessons from Plankdude & TCY on how to give draft posts. They even provided us with a very late night vid of them giving a recap. :)

-Nah, I’m good.

You sure are.

So basically you missed a chance to ask Forbort about whether he prefers Morgan Freeman’s role in “Evan Almighty” or “The Bucket List,” and you also passed on grilling Corey Perry Jr. about his addiction to bare-chested vampires and Twilight. For that, I will never forgive you.

Great job, “blogger.”

I was only there by 11 for my free lunch. Good stuff — I’ll do my Day One recap tomorrow.

And sure, I did bring a laptop techically, but it didn’t mean I was free to write a new post on it. Stupid Mac.

Or probably, stupid me.

Barry Trotz has a big head already, but in person? He looks like M.O.D.O.K.

That might just be the most accurate comparison to Barry Trotz in the history of comparisons.

but went to all of day two with my six year old; he refused to leave until it was all over. i kept thinking it resembled a business convention. the highlight for me was checking out the cup, looking at the names of this team and that team, and my kid (who actually knows better) said, “where are the kings?” as the other cup gawkers cracked up and said things like “ask dean!”. This caused me to point to a blank space about three blank spaces down from the pens 09 (chicago obviously isn’t there yet) and said, “that’s where they’ll be.” right under new jersey, actually. and we all kind of stared in silence at the blank space. I swear.

my kid also looked at the line of about 100 people waiting to get a signed something from dustin brown and he announced “that’s not the real dustin brown!” people wanted to argue with him. i’m like, “you’re an adult; he’s six.” it was like a message board come to life.

I met a bunch of people I’ve only known on the internet (thankfully I’m better looking than all of them)

This is where I clarify to everyone here that I didn’t attend.

Saturday because I wanted to watch Ricardo Clark make a dick out of himself against Ghana, and thank God I didn’t have to go.

fuck fuck fuck!!!!! arrrrrrggggggg

The Ducks did make a deal Saturday as they sent winger Mike Brown to Toronto for a fifth-round pick

just barely foudn this out…waht can brown do for toronto?…this is a burke guy.this isnt a shocker…too bad…mike didnt work out better for us…always like his litte accelerated burst that blossomed into nothing

I don’t understand, there’s a wall right behind you. WHERE ARE YOU COMING FROM, FORBORT???

I thoroughly went through the rule book. I didn’t see anything about not being able to draft ghosts, good move Kings.
