I won’t be watching the draft this year
Last year, I went down to Columbus, OH with a friend to watch the 2007 NHL Draft. It was a fantastic experience and definitely worth the cost of gas, food, and lodging. Unfortunately this year, I will be unable to attend the draft thanks to work. What makes it even worse is that the cable for my apartment in Chicago does not carry Versus. Therefore, I will literally not be able to watch the draft this year, which is a disappointment for me because I like being the nerd who watches the draft live. Oh well.
As such, I will have no live draft analysis or posts up throughout the evening. I plan on posting a first round recap tomorrow, but you’ll have to get your news from TSN or a hockey blog that gets Versus on their cable provider.
Update: I will now be watching the game at a Chicago sports bar where the Chicago Blackhawks are hosting a free NHL draft party. Should be interesting!

Hahaha, it’s good to know I’m not the ONLY nerd who likes to watch it live.
