Eh, you and sig did all the work on the NFL stuff. But man, what a pain in the ass it is to find this stuff compared to the NFL draft.

Type "2007 NHL Draft Preview" into google... I kid you not, google asked you "did you mean 2007 NFL Draft Preview". UGH

LOL if its chocolate chip, yeah you're prolly right gunny.

Jay that would be so much more exciting if this draft had any real players, I know broken record, but if that was an NFL drat with the 2 and 23 picks, wow I'd psyched.

Yeah the NHL draft is more like the MLB draft, where the NFL and NBA drafts are more similar. Every year, you have very few guys in the NHL draft ready for the pros right away. Thats why most people don't care. Me, i don't mind waiting a year or two until the big name guys crack the line-ups.
