Why Is The NHL Draft The Greatest Draft
by
Robb Dahlen
The NHL Draft is a time for hope for every fan of every team. Any pick can be the next great player for your team or the next favorite player for you or anyone in the world and could inspire some little kid to start playing the game. A team can find any kind of player in the NHL Draft. There's always great players in the first round but great players can be found in every round of the draft. The bottom line is every player picked by every team has a story that has brought them to this point in their lives.
