Canadian teams' drafts in 140 characters
Face it: Every team's draft can be summed up in a 140 characters, in a tweet. But after a Stanley Cup Playoffs devoid of Canadian teams, we're shining a light on the north's clubs as they look to right their respective ships.
Let's go, in alphabetical order.
Calgary Flames
Brian Burke wants more "pains in the ass" on his roster. If Brad Treliving keeps this up, he'll be just that to 29 of his fellow general managers.
Edmonton Oilers
The Oilers were forced to take one of the consensus top-three forwards in the draft. One day, things will go Edmonton's way.
Montreal Canadiens
Sergachev's going to look great with Subban, and just the thought of Gallagher and Shaw playing together is enough to make one go crazy.
Ottawa Senators
The Maple Leafs weren't the only Ontario-based team to land their future No. 1 center, and the Dahlen bloodlines appear strong.
Toronto Maple Leafs
Toronto drafted 11 players over the weekend, as many as it did in 2013 and 2014 combined. The Shanaplan is real. Lamoriello said it himself.
Vancouver Canucks
Jim Benning has a plan. He will tell you all about it. No, really, he'll tell you everything.
Winnipeg Jets
The chip on Patrik Laine's shoulder is exactly what Winnipeg needs, and the city treats its Finns the best. This is going to be fun.
