NHL Draft Report
6/20/2008 at 11:58 PM
Well being this was my first of many NHL drafts to attend with my latest role with The Sports Corporation tonight was exceptional in Ottawa.
Full rink - passionate fans - exciting trades - and some draft surprises.
Our two clients were taken 13th and 18th overall and what a big day for Colton and Chet.
My heart went out to Colby Robak tonight because after our two guys were taken all I could hope was Colby to get picked..... tough on an 18 year old kid to sit on the edge of his chair with his family as the parade of players goes up to the stage.
Day 2 in Ottawa starts at 10 am and I hope for Colby and Matty Calvert that I hear their names early.
ps....... Ottawa could be one of Canada's cleanest cities. Plus had a John McCain sighting.
