Don't have TV coverage, but loved wire photo of Arizona Coyotes execs arriving like a bachelor party for the draft in snazzy and matching maroon suits!
Several mock drafts have Wild taking Oshawa Generals centre Calum Ritchie in first round. He's from Brampton, Ont., 6-2, 187 lbs., reportedly strong skater. Shoots right. Had 24 goals, 35 assists for 59 pts in 59 games.
Andrew Brunette (was most recently with Devils) named Nashville coach. Powerplay specialist, choppy skater and fan favorite playing for the Wild.
Also, former Minnesota assistant Brett McLean named head coach of Baby Wild in Iowa. Prospects Rossi, Beckman, Walstadt, Walker, Rourke on that AHL team. Tim Army was fired.
