2015 NHL Draft: Drafting In The National Capital Region
May 2011, Gatineau, Quebec.
The Olympiques go on a long playoff run, upsetting the Drummondville Voltigeurs and Quebec Remparts, and get set to take on arguably the most stacked team in modern QMJHL history, the St. John Sea Dogs.
Tim Murray, representing the then-Daniel Alfredsson-captained Ottawa Senators halfheartedly claimed that he wants his team captain’s number-sake to live on, telling his brother Bryan he wanted “the two number 11’s” from the finals.
NHL Draft day a month later.
The first number 11, Jonathan Huburdeau from the Sea Dogs, is just out of reach for the Senators, taken third overall by Florida.
