Today’s the day! With the first round of the NHL Entry Draft looming tonight, let’s do a quick round-up of some news stories around the hockey world:
- Pierre Dorion made an appearance on TSN1200 yesterday, and had a few interesting things to say. Of note, the Sens seem very open to trading the 7th overall pick, and Matt Murray is apparently fully healthy (for whatever that’s worth!) Graeme Nichols has a good, comprehensive write-up over at Rome in a Day.
- On Tuesday, Mike Grier broke a colour barrier of sorts as he became the first black GM in NHL history.
