The NHL, in its ever infinite wisdom, credentialed 13 SBNation writers, and gave us 6 seats on the riser. I am currently using someone else’s seat, next to Bruce Garrioch believe it or not. I may get kicked out if the people that own this seat show up. The NHL has really done a bad job this year.
The media was not allowed in the building until 2 PM
The seat issue
The internet is not working correctly.
I wish I was back in Montreal

Um, the Banter representative has seen no free food

kausatoday Steve Y would want Brandon Gormley for Tampa at No. 6, but I don’t believe he will be there. I see 3 D men going 3rd, 4th or 5th.
I disagree i think Gormley could be available at 6.
NHLSourcesSay Oilers/Jackets talking…most likely about the 4th overall pick.
I think 4 is where it gets interesting in terms of trades shaking things up.
Oh, and the Rangers are in the very middle, can’t get near them this year

I didn’t realize that the nhl draft selection was an acceptance speech… to much bs face time… get up there make the pick move on…
I think the major problem with all these speeches is that nobody wants to hear or see bettman anymore… so we can’t do what the NFL does and relay picks…
If Bettman just walked up and announced the pick
I’d live with his douchality for 30 seconds

Just saw this
8:32 P.M.-NEW YORK RANGERS
Which of the highly talented defensemen will fall out of the top 10? Cam Fowler or Brandon Gormley? Or both?
General Manager Glen Sather picks defenseman DYLAN MCILRATH.
Out of all the prospects, McIlrath is probably my favorite. He is not ony a talented offensive player, but he is also physical and definitely not afraid to fight. Any team would be very fortunate to have him. He has had 19 fighting majors.
A team that has had a mediocre last couple of seasons, including failing to make the playoffs since the hiring of John Tortorella, will be grateful to get a player who can replace Sean Avery and Donald Brashear in agitating opponents. They also got another solid defenseman to go alongside Michael Del Zotto.
GRADE: B+

Not NHL ready. Supposedly they want him to put on 28 pounds of muscle. He is a big truck of a kid though. http://www.nhl.com/ice/draftprospectdetail.htm?dpid=2221 if he can somehow develop a set of hands that do more than break faceplates in his development years that would be lovely, but it is very much unlikely.

Got love all the scouting reports that question his skating ability…b/c that is the one thing you don’t need in the “new” NHL
To be honest...
I don’t like who they passed on, but I like McIlrath the player.
The Rangers don’t need another PUSSY at the blue line, which is what Fowler is. Gormley..meh.
McIlrath seems to be a decent enough skater, defensively sound and has a long reach.
Big, nasty defensive defenseman. Long reach (keep Tarvares et al…) at bay.
Pair him with MDZ…could be good? No…fuck it.

About Our Pick
Dylan McIlrath was selected by the New York Rangers with the 10th overall pick in the 2010 NHL entry draft.
This pick comes as quite a shock, especially seeing as the Rangers’ passed up two highly regarded defenseman in Cam Fowler and Erik Gudbranson. McIlrath is undoubtedly the toughest player in this year’s NHL Entry draft and was referred to by one scout as, “The Undertaker.” McIlrath was already regarded as a solid defensive defenseman before he broke out after being given a chance to develop his offensive skills with Moose Jaw in the final months of the season. McIlrath finished the year with 24 points in 65 games. He showed an improvement in both his foot speed and puck skills, which had another scout calling him one of the most intriguing defensemen prospects available this year. He’s not expected to play in the NHL next season and he may never have much fantasy value, but the Rangers could be getting a great blueliner in McIlrath
they passed on Gormley
not Gudbranson

Supposedly Shea Weber is McIlrath’s ‘favorite player’ (so says his NHL.com profile) but Shea Weber has a cannon of a shot. Juding by McIlrath’s goal totals I don’t see that from him, but we should be fair and give the kid a chance to develop. He is built like a tree, so that is nice to see. Hopefully he will USE HIS SIZE.
I will cheer and clap for the guy when he skates out onto the Garden ice, I really will. I just hope he earns the tenth pick.
Personally I am getting exhausted of all these defenseman first-round picks by the Rangers.

Rangers will get him
Burmistrov and Tarasenko went hours ago.

I can also see the Blackhawks taking him tonight.

We have a lot of hope
in our Prospects to churn out like the Blackhawks, because 25 other teams just got deeper.
Still some pretty big names in play.: McFarland, Merrill, Pitlick, Petrovic, and Kabanov to name a few.
