We're following the rapid fire action in Rounds 2 through 7. The Blue Jackets entered the draft with nine picks in these rounds, and as Day 2 dawns, they retain 7. Should be a wild couple of hours.
There are no stage appearances, sweater donning or extensive interviews today at the NHL Draft in Florida. Instead, the 30 General Managers have their heads down, their phones fully charged, and are prepared to select 180 young prospects, more or less, in record time.
Day 1 turned out as a profitable one for the Blue Jackets, albeit a frustrating one.
