Devil Dan 56 Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Why would I be sarcastic? That series put the Devils on the map and had the greatest cast of characters and grit than any other Championship team ever. Complete underdogs and the hard working group who refused to lose. Loved that team. McKay, Peluso, Holik= the crashline was unlike any other line to that point. Agreed on all points. My 1995 Peluso replica is my prized jersey, especially since he signed it last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devils Pride 26 Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Before announcing the New Jersey Devils first round pick at the 2011 NHL Entry Draft, team President and GM Lou Lamoriello tells those in attendance that they can suck it. Nothing like a good laugh compliments of DIG. Glad to see you posting more again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarpathianForest Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 When I got my wisdom teeth out I ended up in the ER after two days suffering from dehydration. Make sure the Oral Surgeon prescribes some pain killers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSC Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Does anybody remember how much time teams get for their pick? I'm blanking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quinn01 Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Does anybody remember how much time teams get for their pick? I'm blanking. I feel like I want to say 7 min but I dont know for sure. It takes usually like 10-15 to get to the next pick because of the time it takes the player to make his way up to the stage ontop of the time it takes the GM's and whatnot to make their choice. Also keep in mind Bettman has to hobble up to the stage also with his big fake grin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derlique Posted June 24, 2011 Author Share Posted June 24, 2011 Does anybody remember how much time teams get for their pick? I'm blanking. 5 or 10 ten mins iirc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarpathianForest Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Don't forget that the pick has to talk to an interviewer about how great it is to be drafted by Edmonton or NYI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triumph Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 pretty sure it's 5 minutes in the NHL. first, bettman thanks the city they're in, he gets booed, he thanks for the fans for coming out, he gets booed harder, then the picks start.

Devilsfan118 Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Don't forget that the pick has to talk to an interviewer about how great it is to be drafted by Edmonton or NYI It's gotta be an interesting dynamic. On the one hand, it's an amazing honor to be drafted 1st-5th overall. But, on the other hand, you know that you're being drafted by the worst teams in the league (in theory, the Devils this year & Boston last year being recent exceptions).

ZeroGravityFat Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Don't forget that the pick has to talk to an interviewer about how great it is to be drafted by Edmonton or NYI also edmonton/isles are a great dynasty, and will totally be great again.

RSC Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 OK, I just got called off of work because of the weather (yay driving an Italian ice truck!). Is it still possible to get tickets to the draft party? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MantaRay Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 (edited) Any bets on what Winnipeg is going to announce as the franchise name tonight? According to multiple sources, the newly-located WInnipeg NHL franchise will announce their new team name prior to making their first round selection, seventh overall during Friday's draft. The sentimental choice amongst fans is the "Jets", however nicknames such as the Manitoba Moose and Winnipeg Falcons are also in the running.

mmajeski06 Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 (edited) Pumped for tonight!
