NHL Draft Day 2017


I know nothing about the NHL draft. I am not going to pretend to. But tonight; Friday evening in Chicago, is the NHL draft. 

The Maple Leafs hold selections 17, 59, 110, 124, 172, and 203. That's not a bevy of selections where you're really going to make hay and you just hope that the Leafs hit on the first two picks in the first and second rounds and then maybe find a serviceable guy later there. 

A kid named Nico Hischier is expected to be taken #1 overall by the New Jersey Devils as a Centre. The same mock has the Leafs taking Erik Brannstrom, a LH defenceman.

It's just good to be writing about NHL hockey.
