TV coverage begins on the NHL Network at 7 p.m., and the draft will be broadcast on NBCSports (formerly Versus), starting at 8 p.m.
Team Alfredsson includes assistant captain Henrik Lundqvist and co-coach John Tortorella (who will share the bench with Todd McLellan of the San Jose Soft-shelled Jumbo Shrimps).
Marian Gaborik could be picked by his buddy and fellow Slovak, Zdeno Chara, the Team Chara captain. And Gaborik tweeted after the game Tuesday that it would be OK with him:
MGaborik10 Important win tonite! Heading to Ottawa on thursday. Hope to play against Hank @HLundqvist30 and will lite him up:))) Should be fun.

The ones you give out on game nights. I lost all my bookmarks, but my laptop has a pulse now.
I don’t know what’s worse…
watching the asshats on NHL network talk about the game and draft that means less than nothing or
watching the phaneufs on VS/NBC talk about the game and draft that means less than nothing.

at least there was a Hank interview
i saw GANG and KNEW it was you Mickey!!!
Good one, Linda! Good for Dan
“That’s why Hank Lundqvist is good this year” – JR

-Butters lol
Makes sense, Lin!

JR does look like he just took a few bong rips.
These guys are saying “explode” too much!
sounded like he said FORDS instead of forwards lol
LOL! I’ll throw darts at his balls if he even tries, Lin!
wish Carp was here…love to get his thoughts on this…
these guys sound like some of the local news reporters here..
did he just say carcilloy hockey??
Did JR say “shitting hockey”?
did JR just say shi**y hockey?
darts @ his balls!! i’m freakin dying
Sounds like I should change the channel to whatever you all are watching, lol
i am so glad i was NOT the only one who thought they heard that
i think he meant to say shinney
NHL DRAFT MICKEY!!!
HOLY CABBAGE PATCH DOLL HAIR ON THE GARBAGE PAIL KID
dammit Hartnell’s hair looks like mine…
time for a haircut…
its that dutch boy Sloot hair…Phaneuf!
“have a ton of fun out there”
i’d pee my pants if someone told him to kill himself lol
If you stare at Hartnell’s face long enough, he starts to look like Freddy Krueger.
I don’t know who I like less…Pee-air or phaneufing hartnell
lmao!!!
Staal, a well placed bolt of lightning there would have been a nice occurrence lol
ILBZO, i think you’ll reach your jibber/gibberish quotient for the week tonight!
Tim Thomas is a wall of Glenn Beck watching, small government, conservative puck blocking fortitude.
Why do I have a feeling Gaborik will fall down and separate his shoulder on his way up the stairs???
Juan Epstein died
this dude looks like a vampire! and just think we get to see him for a ton of hours on trade deadline day lol
capstans
Shut up, James Doofy
well James Duphie just made the Montreal fans happy, he spoke in french…guess he won’t get fired.
ACK! I thought it was tomorrow night! Thanks for the reminder Lin!
aw nice hoop earrings there tough guy
Wait…People bought tickets to go see this?
Asshats…
i did too Mickey, my daughter re minded me, after telling me about Juan Epstein.
banj, did you see my status about it?
Count Doofy lol
WTB…Chara is freakin HUGE
On this thread?
Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaankkkkkk!!!!!!!!!!

Lupul is an assistant??

Chara seems taller without skates.
newborns enter the world with a basic knowledge of physics?? i must have missed that day
OOPS!
OMG, ilb, that was high-sterical!!!!!!
ilb, the hank of comedy tonight!
Weber has a scary smile.
How much more annoying can this possibly get?? Just draft already!!
Someone tell Stamkos it’s not the 70s anymore
lmao Orr, he looks like he’d eat your flesh with that grin
Mickey i love his Keith Partridge/David Cassidy ‘do!
Bags of chips and bottled water. First class event!
why is she freakin reading tweets!? WTBCares
Laaaame
BANJ, they are special chips lol
lmao @ it’s like the bachelor!
Looked like Kopitar didn’t want to talk to Duchene. Ha!
15 minuters and I am going to play some hockey of my own…
Can’t wait to stop watching this.
It’s
VSNBCSports, they don’t start carcillo until 39 min after…they could have made six picks by now! its like the freakin oscars! get rid of the dumb tweet reader and these other antics and DRAFT!!!
Chara is just a freak of nature
Dandruff commercial, antiperspirants, what’s next Fresh Balls?
how unbelievably lame is the “one trade allowed” option
“yeah this guy sucks…you guys want him for one of your sucky guys?”
It would be funny if Redden jumped up on stage before the first overall pick is announced, with a massive blunt hanging out of his mouth
wow !
i am shaking my fist at radiation interferring with the tv lol
LOL! They should turn off Hank’s mic.
are there odds on when the femme
handing out the hockey jerseys
takes a tumble?
I didn’t hear Hank…what did he say?
i hope they don’t take 4 minutes between picks lol
Shocker!
It’s a Swedish conspiracy! Typical! Sweden typical!
Zdeno Chara AND Jason Spezza for Alexey Yashin. If Milbury had any brains he would’ve blown it out with M16 in an apparent suicide.
He was mumbling aboot who they like, Staal!
LMFAO Ilbzo.. you are on FIYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
lmao @ this kid!! that was hilarious

Timmonen over Stamkos?
i think the collective iq of the crowd is 10
Letang needs a haircut
i wonder if he flat irons his hair lol
Hank and Alfy clearly want d-men with long straight hair.
Kris Letang, Mind Freak
i bet they take Stamkos next to keep the hair theme flowing
did I just see a commercial for jousting? Oh damn…someone is gonna die…
Hair theme, lol!!
Spezza is a giant doofus
I RULE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Stamkos sort of looks like Beavis.
Rangers play on Super Bowl Sunday Whoohoo!
goalies need 70’s hair lol
Go Pats! Aha, Aha!

I have a feeling Danny G is getting picked last.

idk ORR, Alyonka (my fellow russians WHY THE BYFUGLIEN does she pronounce her name that way??) she’s pretty damn cute. and LOL Hank did sound weird there…
what orr, you don’t think she’s hot, therefore it makes up for her horrificness? LOL
BANJ, i’m glad i didnt when they picked Stamkos lol
LOL LIN!
that beak would take down buildings in 3d banj lol
she is not hot, yet is horrific.
i know I’m late on this, but again….tweet this.

Hank and Alfy should rename their team to “Flowing Hair”
Not a single dime- a-dozen player! Both teams stink!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I’m telling you they could be an 80’s hair band!
blech
Do they have to play that annoying music after everyone is picked?
do they get their jackets back or what?

Torts and Soft-shell jumbo shrimp mcLellan are going to have one Europansy team.
LOL! Butt-Chin is all alone in the corner, not talking to anyone.
Mount Hairsuveus!
James Neal c’est le fromage duex res tet poo poo.
Youse, but they sure have some outrageous hair! Team ALfredsson sponsored by Suave, Paul Mitchell and Head and SHoulders
and to drink, peru
I think Gaborik worked his way to being the next to last pick…before Hartnell.
he wants to go against Hank, he may get his wish lol
this is the stupidest show ever, prust saying….yet I am watching.
they will take JT next.. he has the prerequiste hair

jpg, Stamkos also LOOKS like Geddy Lee
Who’s left?

Couture, Benn, Pomminville and Seguin

i don’t think coutre cares at all
Ok everybody over to ilb’s for post draft party!

JR, a ROCK knows more than you do

Ugh, I can’t stand watching Roenick tonight so channel change time!
its over.. thank you baby Jesus!
This is on a loop? YES!
capstans.. still funny lol
Back to Kathryn Tappen.
i got two glorious boneheads lined up to help me get Bruce tix tomorrow. Need one more…who of youse is up for it….will pay back, obviously. and Carp knows where to find me if you don’t trust mama, which would be so wrong :)
time to get my arse kicked working out! Have a great one ‘Heads… awesome laughs tonight!
What are you talking about, mama?
ilb, Springsteen tix on sale tomorrow for 5 local shows … ticketmaster nightmare means you can only get tix for one show per try usually….they sell out FAST! so I always need backup for other dates…..someone needs to be at computer at certain time for me…or have an in for tix, for which I will gratefully pay…..
THAT’S ALL FOLKS!
niters BANJ!!!! me too soon
“Certain time” isn’t something I can promise with my line of work, sorry mama
sob….understood ilb….lucky for me I’m not working, but tix will still go likethat.
Wow! I missed a very funny night here…
Lin, LMFAO!!!
HageLinCalPruStepanlahan January 26th, 2012 at 9:08 pm
lmfao orr… he’s like Sampson.. he needs his hair lol
If you haven’t seen this it is hysterical.
http://www.didgomezscore.com/
leetch, love it!!
I’d offer Mama, but my tomorrow is looking beyond zany :(
That is one quality website, leetch! LOL
Thanks Mickey, I know….when I had a full time job, I was lucky enough to do it from work, or come in late :)
Once, on a Saturday, 4 of us came in to the office to do it together cause the computers were faster and we could easily share how we did….I’m telling you…getting Bruce tix is more of a science than getting Rangers playoff tix….Swear!!
leetch…..I bow to whoever created that. LMAO!!!
LOL, I believe you on that, Mama.
Oh, to be able to come in late….
Seen the boss 18 times can’t wait …. Not even my fav artist but great live
Ok, one long assen day down, another one coming up. So time for bed gang. Be good!
Celts with a nice comeback !
LOL @ Keith Jones and JR for not recognizing that Gaborik was clowning on Hank for walking to his side after being picked by Chara. I’m pretty sure even the crowd figured that out….
Hedberg….nobody better live. Nobody. So, you getting me tix :)
Thanks everyone for your congrats! Real work starts now!
Fantasy Draft was a lot of fun! Gaborik is hilarious! But how predictable Alfredson was with all Swedish / Senators picks. Now let’s get this theatrics over with and get back to the playoffs push!
Can Gaborik score 5 goals against Hank again? Should be fun…
Go Celtics! Nice comeback, indeed!
Jeez….I’m just watching the replay of the draft….those Ottawa fans are so dopey- booing the Leaves every single chance they get…
NYR_FAN, canadian fans are uncivilsed buffoons…they need to use more grey poupon to gain same savoir-faire..does that make cents?
rangers trying to get Stamkos?
Wow. He’s most of their offense. And the way things look there, Gilroy is probably their best defenseman ….at this point in time.
