Draft is slow as heck and these announcers on ESPN+ blow. 3 picks away.

On the clock.. C'mon lets go. Michael Brandsegg-Nygård - RW (Sweden) Good 2-way player. Can shoot.

They interview all these picks pre-Detroit, somehow skips Detroits pick and then interviews all the others after Detroit. Typical, lol.

I've never heard of him, but apparently he's the first Norwegian to ever be taken in the first round.

Yep. Which actually surprised me when I heard it. They have good hockey there.. I remember when we drafted Seider, never heard of him. Same with Raymond .. and they both worked out great. We need wings so I like the pick, lots to like.

Pronman: Plante was one of the better forwards for the U.S. NTDP this season. He's a highly skilled forward who can make a lot of plays, and brings a strong tempo to his game. He is a very creative playmaker with the puck who can create on the move, at the net and from the perimeter. He's not that big or physical, but Plante gives a good effort and plays with courage. The debate on him will be as a smaller winger if he's dynamic enough offensively and a natural enough scorer to be an NHL middle-six wing.

Pick 80, 3rd round - Ondrej Becher, C. 96 points in the offensive WHL this past season. But it was triple his scoring from the season before.

Double overeager - basically was in the draft twice before but wasn't selected.
