2015 NHL Draft Watching Thread

Some of us are live at the official Dallas Stars watching party at the Owner’s Box in the Omni Hotel.

The rest of us are dispersed across the world.

Let’s all talk about the draft here.

The draft starts at 6 pm from BB&T Center in Florida. The Stars currently have the 12th pick in the draft. Tonight the first round will be drafted. Tomorrow the draft will continue with rounds 2-7.

As breaking news happens we’ll have it covered.

All of our draft coverage can be found in our Draft Hub. Any profiles and articles we have written about this draft can be found there.

As a refresher, the recent first round picks of the Stars have worked out pretty well. Under Jim Nill the Stars have selected Julius Honka,Jason Dickinson, and Valeri Nichushkin in the first round. The track record before that is a bit suspect. Radek Faksa, Jamie Oleksiak, Jack Campell, and Scott Glennie.

In a few hours, barring any trades, we’ll add a new name to that list.
