Why did this draft start so late in the day?

[chernobylwraiths]

Is the draft being shown on any channel? I have direct TV and don't get Canadian channels either.

No new Jersey's for the Sabres today. I noticed that the logo next to Buffalo on the draft board is the current logo.

[SabreEleven]

Could be a ploy?

[Bill Brasky]

you guys seriously must be bored. if there were new jersey's there'd be an announcement, they're not just going to pull them out of nowhere. chill!

they use the Logo's They had in the Public Affiliations, Old Logo doent mean diddly,
the Ducks had hte old logo on the board i thought...

[G Wolly]

The Ducks had the new logo. I just figured they put up the new ducks because they already released it while we haven't. Well now we have to wait :(

No one usually carries past the 1st Round (well NFL Network did for NFL) :bandwagon

Umm....did you even watch the NFL draft?

[SkateZilla]

Umm....did you even watch the NFL draft?

not all of it, but NFL Network here covered it after teh 1st round (1st Round was on ESPN / ESPN HD)

[RockStar36]

I'm pretty sure that more than the first round was on ESPN/ESPN 2.

[ILOVEMIBILLS]

I always try to watch all of the NFL Draft, and will usually try to catch a significant amount of the NHL Draft, including online if necessary courtesy of NHL.com

[ddaryl]

the entire NFL draft is on ESPN.

They do most of days 1 draft on the main channel, then they switched to ESPN news channel for day 2 of the NFL draft. The NFL network also broadcasts the draft. Lots of NFL draft coverage.

Unlike the NHL draft, players taken in the NFL draft can make an immediate impact. Many players drafted in the NHL draft never play NHL hockey.
