The first round of the NHL Entry Draft is over and the New York Rangers seem mighty pleased with their selection of winger Brennan Othmann. Although many anticipated a deal to be made, Chris Drury stood pat and kept the pick. He explained that they were looking to make a trade, but never got “close.”
The second through seventh round of the draft begins at 11am, televised live on the NHL Network.
