The 2024 NHL Draft had no surprises for the first two picks. Macklin Celebrini went to the San Jose Sharks first overall. And the Chicago Blackhawks drafted Artyom Levshunov with the second pick. However, the Anaheim Ducks threw a curveball with the third selection. They took Oshawa Generals star Beckett Sennecke, who looked caught off guard by this turn of events.

The first time my family walked into a Ponderosa Steakhouse was in the late 1960s. It was new and the experience was great. Like other new restaurants, if the management doesn't stay on top, the quality of service can decline. The location we went to did change through the years, but in the beginning, it was great.

The Minnesota Wild took the bull by the horns on Friday night. They did what 10 other teams should have done and that is draft Zeev Buium out of Denver University. He was projected to go in the top five but he started to slip a little bit. By the time he got to 10, it was a shock that the New Jersey Devils didn’t take him. Then, the San Jose Sharks passed on him at 11. Both NJ and SJ took defensemen in those spots too.
