Not to worry kids: the next six rounds will fly past at breakneck speed. As of 11:30 am EST, Dale Tallon's Panthers have 4 picks in the second round, 2 in the fourth, and 1 each in the fifth, sixth, and seventh frames. In essence: 33, 36, 50, 59, 92, 93, 123, 153, and 183. That's an amazing collection - historically speaking - coming from this club.
Today's psychosis from Staples Center gets underway at 1 pm EST, and can be followed on NHL Network. We'll keep an eye out for a live stream as well (are you listening, NHL.com?). The Cats have been the early headliners so far; what's next?

Erik Gudbranson, when asked if he and Panthers GM Dale Tallon talked at all on the podium after he was picked: “He says, ‘I thought tough guys don’t wear pink shirts’ (the 6-4 Gudbranson had a black suit with a pink shirt), and I said ‘Tough guys wear pink shirts for a reason.’”

So is Bryan McCabe next to be traded?

ATL was even mentioned, then denied. Whatever.

From Twitter:
“Phone is vibrating like crazy. Either Justin Bieber has died, or the second round has started.”
That’s my assumption as well. No thirds, so it’s now or take a chance in the fourth.

Got that right. Has to be a crazy big reason not to take him, and remain content that he wasn’t going to last until 123.

Praying he’s dispatched Sexy over to the Rags desk with a mission

I hate Krupp. HE not only scored the last goal for the Avs in the series to win the Cup for the Avalance. But he is not the coach of the National team from Germany. Ugh.
From Steve Simmons via Twitter:
Maybe because I saw him play a lot with Jr. Canadiens, I have to believe DTallon stole John McFarland in 2nd rd. This guy is a playa
Savard waiving NTC. Slowly.

The fun was in him not waiving it for them!

A very disappointing Day 2
After the second pick, we seem to have not bothered, going off the reservation for virtually every pick when there were far better rated prospects in each round.
What is shocking is our complete ignorance for even looking at European players. Maybe thats why the Red Wings and others win cups and we don’t.
Its all very good drafting size, but skill also helps.
At 50 we could have drafted Jarnkrok but went Brinkley. At 59 we drafted down for two nobodies when we could have taken who the Wild did Larsson who was exceptional in the WorldJ20
We missed Yogan despite 3 opportunites.
Some of these guys will need to seriously progress to get a pro contract and play with the Everblades.
How can you say that it was a disappointing day. Just cause a player is from europe dosen’t make them any better and a player from north america. Look at the Blackhawks 7 of their 22 players are european, including the goalies.
After the first round drafting is all about getting the best player available. I am gonna just trust in Tallon, hes a great hockey mind and knows what he is going.
The wings win cups because of more factors than drafting talented players. Jarnkrok might be more talanted at this point but nobody know what any of these kids will be like in 2-5 years.
Lets just hope for our team’s sake that we did choose the right player.
The Has Been Team............
The Wings……not the PANTHERS….I really wanted Yogan….but I trust the GM for the 1st. time in 10 years and I’m sure most of you feel the same way…..We are Definitely going to look different……..He ain’t done yet. We will NOT BE A FUN TEAM TO PLAY…..and it’s about time!
