2009 NHL entry draft.

John Moore, the newest member to carry the flag :)

what a night. I thought it was going to be good, and I wasn't disapointed. well, actually, I was. TWICE my boys came a pick away from getting my Swedes. with Ottawa, Magnus Paajarvi Svensson was still available, but they didn't pick him. I guess there was a greater need for defense. And Columbus passed up Jacob Josefson for the likes of John Moore. I have nothing against Moore, I'm sure he's going to be great, but I wanted my Swedes! :(

Obviously there was one more Swede I wanted more than anything, Victor Hedman, but I am not a fool. I knew my teams would have no chances in drafting him. I'm glad he went to Tampa though, I've always had a soft spot for them, ever since they won the cup back in 04. (at least I think it was 2004 :/)

Swedish or not, I welcome Moore and the other draft picks into the Jackets organization with open arms. (:

BLUE JACKETS 2009 NHL ENTRY DRAFT PICKS:

1st round: John Moore, D

2nd rounds: Kevin Lynch, C

4th round: David Savard, D

5th round: Thomas Larkin, D

6th round: Anton Blomqvist, D(FINALLY A SWEDE!)

7th round: Kyle Neuber, RW

ok, I feel quite confident we have enough defense now... :P yay! this is exactly what the Jackets needed to pick in the draft. but we still need some offsenive defense that already plays in the NHL. we have a strong core of rookies, but we need a few veterans to really solidify the organization. (is it too wishful to hope for Jay Bouwmeester?) {scratch that, I hear he's going to Calgary. unfair}

now on to the goods:

TOP TEN DRAFTEES IN THE 2009 NHL ENTRY DRAFT:

1st, NYI: John Tavares

2nd, TBL: Victor Hedman

^ I'm stoked about Matty's deal, because he gets to go to a team he idolized growing up :} good luck Mr. Duchene!

4th, ATL: Evander Kane

5th LAK: Brayden Schenn

^ it made my night to see Brian Burke's face after LA selected his golden boy :)

6th, PHX: Oliver Ekman-Larson

7th, TOR: Nazem Kadri

^ another great moment of the draft was watching Brian Burke snatch Brian Murray's pick right from under his nose.

Burke: is kadri the guy you want?

Murray: yeap.

Burke: yeah, well we're gonna take him.

Murray: OK.

8th, DAL: Scott Glennie

RIP Michael Jackson

RIP<33

this deserves its own special post, since Michael was his own special guy. he was a superstar and he will be missed.

1.more.day.

one.more.day.

one more day til the draft.

Rachel's pool sucked. it turned Lois' fingernails blue and Kat's hair green. and, as I was rinsing my hair last night, the bottom of the bathtub was turquoise. and now my hair smells gross. cheers.

tttttwoooo dayysssssss !

I'm dying in the suspense. two days until draft/

anyways, this is going to be super short because I'm going to my friends pool party and I have to get ready and whatnot :} it's gonna be sick.

anyways, since I dont have anything else to talk about, I am going to post a couple of pictures that I enjoy:

and this is possibly the cutest picture my eyes have ever been exposed to: (it's Talbot and Crosby and the World Juniors)

here is Alexander Ovechkin, the "missing link" as my mother calls him, one of the ugliest guys in the world, ACTUALLY LOOKING CUTE. maybe it's because we cant see his missing teeth? who knows.

this is Sidney Crosby, proving how much of a nerd he is (note: that is him, sleeping with the cup instead of going to the bar and having a beer with the rest of his teammates)

SUMMER!

yes, that is right. school's out, summer is IN babay!

well actually that's a lie. there's still a day left. but we got our report cards today so nobody is going to bother going tomorrow except the poor unfortunate souls who are being forced to go. like my friend Nick. anyways, it was a great last day, and I got to hang out with all my friends, and me and An chickened out, we were gonna give Marky a big hug, but we knew he would kill us.

pool party tomorrow!~ gonna be some good times.


3 days to the draft! :)

Ovechkin at the MMVAs

happy belated father's day everyone. I had a fantastic father's day, consisting of going to Red Lobster and stuffing my face with cheddar biscuits and shrimp :} and watching the MMVAs with my cousin.

the only reason I wanted to watch the MMVAs (muchmusic video awards) is because I heard that Ovie was going to be there. and I wasn't dissapointed. :-D he showed up all decked up in some of his streetwear clothing(how shameless is that?) and he picked up one of the veejays and spun him around when he was asked how he would celebrate winning an MMVA. and he totally screwed up announcing Rise Against. why they pick Russian hockey players with thick accents to announce awards is beyond me.

also, there was some huge Lady Gaga performance, and I didn't see it, but apparently there were some sort of fireworks coming out of her bra.....? ook, glad I didn't see it, actually.


math exam was today, that was an experience.it was pretty stress inducing. and some kids literally started to cry. I can't wait to see what happens next year, when the exams actually count for 30% of your grade. hysterics, perhaps.

ummm, not much else to report, NHL DRAFT FRIDAY (geil) I can't wait to see who goes first overall and who the Blue Jackets get :>



I am leaving now, Jon and Kate Plus 8 one hour special is onnnnnnn....... big announcement! O.O
(I sense divorce is on the cards)

nothing

there's nothing to talk about.

nothing at all.

hockey is over.

I am sad.

Victor Hedman has something on his face. some sort of birthmark or scar or burn or something. I noticed it and assumed it was a bad picture, but you can see it in every picture. it's on his left side. I wonder what happened.

^ see, in the absense of hockey, this is what I have to talk about.

Hedman's thing on his face is most prominent on this picture:

woot, excited for the NHL entry drafts! GO GO KULIKOV! AND HEDMAN! AND PAAJARVI SVENSSON! and Johnny T.

NHL awards....or the Russian awards/

way to go Steve Mason!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Calder, Calder, Calder!
haha, Bobby Ryan only got nine votes, and Kris Versteeg only got one. tee-hee. Nash won an awrd too. BLUE JACKETS REPRESENT! annd I was right about Mason's girlfriend. she IS blond. she's pretty actually, but she was wearing a lot of eye make up. Geno was sitting beside a blond russian girl as well. she had HUGEE lips. Way to go OV! Hart, Rocket Richard, and Lester B. Pearson. Fatpuke won two and Geno won one. screw Fatpuke. Roberto Luongo won the fan fav and people were booing him :( that is so mean. some people are asses.


Steve Sullivan won the comeback award, and Jean Beliveau won the life time achievement award. and I forget the rest. i was laughing really hard in the beginning, what a weird way to open it.

Lord Stanley

it has been long. very long since I have posted, mainly because I came downstairs to get a bag of pretzels and there was a spider the size of a pancake hanging around the couch. and where there is one spider, there are thousands more lurking in the dark.

anways, while i didnt write, the Penguins came back to tie the series, and then go on to WIN IT, THUS WINNING THE STANLEY CUP!

well then.

it was a perfect end to the hockey season. I was screaming like a fool, to be honest, because watching Sidney Crosby-the youngest NHL captain ever to win the cup-lifting that thing above his head and cheer, and see the other guys hugging and laughing and yelling, I knew that they were the most deserving team.

and I love the irony of everything. Hossa ditched the Pens to go to the Wings because he thought they would win the cup, and in the finals, his old team-a team he COULD'VE been on-beats the Wings. oh, happy days.

Maxy scored the only goals in the final, which is awesome for him, because now everyone knows how great he is :)

Evgeni Malkin won the Conn Smythe, and I was laughing really hard at his interview, because he barely knows any English, and the English he DOES know is so heavily accented that you can barely understand it. great stuff.

NHL player awards are tomorrow :) Mase is nominated for 2. *crosses fingers* hopefully he can sweep them both, who knows. annnd, Malkin and OV ofr Hart trophy, plus scotiabank fan fave. I am excited.

he has a little blog thing going on for the Blue Jackets web site, talking about how excited he is to be nominated and stuff, and he's confirmed he has a girlfriend, Amberleigh or something like that. she's got an interesting name, I guess. I bet she's blond. and has big boobs. whatever, as long as Steve is happy and continues to bring home the bacon (i.e. wins games) he can date a 400 pound lumberjack named Frank for all I care.

in the absence of hockey, I have had to find some other things to amuse me with. FIFA is gay, but the UEFA under 21 soccer chamionships are pretty good. when I was watching the England vs. Finland game, a steaker ran across the field, which is always good. it provides humor and hilariousity that makes the day better. :D

I also started watching Jon and Kate Plus 8, and the kids are honestly some of the cutest things on this planet.

and Canada's next top Model is an ok show. so, soccer and reality TV for me this summer.

and, before school lets out, I have a math exam on the 22nd, which is gay to the extreme. we took a practice test yesterday and i got 68%, which is better than a fail, I guess. whatever, math can go crawl into a hole with the Boston Bruins and Beans and go die.

hehe, Dany Heatley asked to be traded from the Sens. the whole organization is crumbling before our very eyes :) can you believe he had the audacity to give Murray a list of teams he wants to be traded to? why, Sens, do you always get stuck with the asses? (Daigle, Yashin, Emery)

Ottawa is a toxic town, but it is my town, and I wuvvles it :)

Sidney Crosby:

happy belated birthday!

yesterday was Erik Karlsson's birthday :-) hopefully he had a nice, relaxing birthday home in Sverige with his friend and family.

sigh. these Stanley Cup finals are not at all the way I wanted them to start off. It's a real kick in the ass knowing Pittsburgh was the better team. Detroit should thank their lucky stars the got the bounces that they did. and Justin Abdelkader, YOU ARE ON MY LIST. I hate it when players are shit in the regular season, and in the playoffs they become beasts, it pisses me off. I prefer it the other way around (see Zdeno Chara)

Henrik Zetterburg is a sneak, he is also on my list. well, he was always on it. Chris not-so-Osgood, you are on my list as well. the only one that might be able to get away with anything is Pavel Datsyuk, just because he's injured and can't score. and he's a Lady Byng nominee. which goes to the classy guys. Brian Stuart, you are TOTALLY on my list for that hit on Umberger in this year's playoffs. you thought I forgot, didn't you? no. I only forgot your name.

poor, poor Penguins. I think I am bad luck, because I always mention I need the Pens to get a two goal lead, and DETROIT turns around and gets lucky. fat, geezer, JERKS.

hopefully they are able to win in their Mellon Arena :-) and I am excited because a bunch of 2009 NHL entry draft prospects will be in attendance. Don Cherry was talking about Johnny T yesterday night, according to my parents. I wouldn't know, because I spent my night channel surfing between the MTV movie awards and the game. (LOL'd at Bruno and Eminem)

speaking of the MTV movie awards, Twilight swept them. stupid, stupid twilight fangirlies. Twilight beat slumdog millionaire o.O pathetic, Slumdog won Oscars, and some idiots are going to vote for a British Partier with bad hair and a pot head? -.- hate twilight. Kristen Stewart dropped her award, which pretty much made my night, besides Eminem getting pissed at some guy Bruno for landing his ballsack on Em's face. xD

anyways, the Pens lost by a score of two again, thanks to some lucky Detroit goals and soft bounces on Fleury's part. I don't think the hockey gods like the Pens very much. :'(


anyways, I'm bored, no hockey, so,
