Top 5 overall or top five rounds?
If OV, that's really cool.

I imagine the draft is really boring with all of the made for TV aspects of it.
The first round could be cool though. It just might take a while.
So, worst case, you'll spend $60 on beer and need to Uber home ๐Ÿ˜„

He should go top-5 overall, I've seen him as high as #3 on some boards.

And yeah, I kinda figure it'll be boring to go. I've got friends out there I want to visit though, so maybe go and meet up with friends after / for the weekend.

Make a drinking game out of it. Every time bettman gets booed. Every time a non GM makes the pick. Every time the organization thanks the hosting organization. ๐Ÿ˜

Yeah it looks like in the article i posted, if you're family you can sit bottom bowl, otherwise you have to sit up at the top.

Nah, trying to not be that guy. Excited for him and I just think if there was ever a draft to go to this would be the one... was curious what it would be like :o



Bowen Byram, plays for the Vancouver Giants. Led the WHL in playoff scoring as a d-man (first time that's ever happened)



Yea if theres a time to go to a draft it would be if a relative is getting drafted, at least it adds some personal vestment to the event

Byram huh, thatโ€™s quite the player to be associated with, nice to see a proper western Canadian dman drafting where they belong

You have fam in cranbrook?

Yeah I've got a bit of family scattered throughout BC. Some in Cranbrook, Creston & Vancouver. It's crazy to watch where his career has gone; I remember not that long ago he left Cranbrook to go play in Lethbridge and live away from his parents at 13.

His dad and grandpa both had cups of coffee in the NHL and played professional over-seas.

Kinda what I've thought aswell... Now do I risk buying a #3 Byram jersey before the draft? :rofl:
