By Bryan Reynolds -
We've discussed and debated it for weeks. We've postulated and prognosticated ad nauseum. We've even used words people actually use in everyday discussion, and, sometimes, even used words without alliteration. It's be a great run up until this point, but it all comes down to tonight and tomorrow. The NHL draft convenes in Pittsburgh, with the Wild making the seventh overall pick, and then Wild fans falling into a deep coma until tomorrow.
Of course, that's barring anything like a trade happening, but we have no indications any are in the works.
What will happen tonight? Will it be Jacob Trouba to the Wild as so many have guessed? Will Grigorenko fall like many have predicted? Can three Russians be drafted 1,2,3? Will any of the top five (mostly) consensus picks slip to the Wild? What will be the big story of the night?
