I still can't believe it, I thought Blackhawks were going to get #4,what a great day Jack!
My heart went from breaking to ecstatic about the future
They just sold 2.5 million tickets
Anaheim mad as hell right now, but Adam gonna be that boy. Depending on which team puts the best talent around Connor or Adam will determine who has the better career.
Franchise changer , He has a chance to be a top 5 player in the NHL very soon.
I’m still in shock! The UC will sellout every game again. I’m so incredibly excited
Will they add free agents to support his play? If he makes team will he need someone to protect him?
like connor, i was born and raised in vancouver. been a canuck fan for 53 years. that's over. the minute chicago was given the 1st pick, i went online and ordered a #98 bedard blackhawk jersey. the first time i will be sporting gear from a team that isn't the canucks. i want to align with a franchise that wants to win the cup and does what it takes to do that. go hawks.
Everything is rigged in the Nhl… From officiating to the draft! What an embarrassment of a league
RIGGED
Nice that the team with sexual assault history gets the #1 pick. Good job nhl
They shouldn't even be allowed to draft in any around this year if they would have been properly punished for literal crimes.
I soiled myself thought it was a fart but it was a shart GO HAWKS !!!!!
