BUFFALO, N.Y. — Though their 2016 NHL Draft was always going to be about what went down Friday night — two picks in the first round that brought left-winger Patrik Laine and defenceman Logan Stanley on board — the Winnipeg Jets added four more selections Saturday in Rounds 2 through 7.
Laine, the 18-year-old Finn phenom, was more than a prize at No. 2. His knack for shooting and scoring is compared by many scouts to that of Brett Hull or Alex Ovechkin.
