    Haha... except for make the league millions upon millions of Dollars? I am not a fan of him either... but its not he hasn't done anything right... you don't keep a position of that prestige for as long as he has if he hasn't done anything right.

    Anyways... I love that they are going to do this. Sucks for the host city that would have made a tonne of money off of hosting the draft... but it will make for awesome TV and give us some live sports action!

    Great idea that I hope the NHL copies. No point in doing it any other way.

    It would be cool if they could deliver the jersey of the team drafting them on the front step of the prospects house and that's how the picks are revealed.

    Don't think the tech for literal virtual reality is there yet, but that would be something. Have the kids all filming themselves "walking up" at home and have them projected onto a stage, with jerseys/hats virtually put onto them, virtual handshakes with the commish and the team, the whole thing.

    One plus from the Teams side of this - No one will be able to leave their draft strategy on a lobby chair this year. (Right Yzerman?)
