View of the Bell Centre from my hotel room
Hey all. Just checked in at my hotel in Montreal and ready to get things rolling with the draft. Here's what I have in mind for tomorrow.
I'd like to get a post up on every pick and keep the ole Twitter account firing off all day. Obviously my attention is focused on what Pitt plans to do, but seeing as how they pick last I should have some time on my hands to hit up some other players and team news along the way.
As for the content on Pensburgh, I will kick off a Draft Day Open Thread in the morning/afternoon. This will remain stuck to the top of the page all day, with individual draft stories appearing underneath and linked up in the body/comments.
Other SBN guys are also roaming around town for the event as well. Add their twitter accounts for updates from the draft room floor. (And be sure to add us as well)

Frank, you’ve been up there too long already, you spelled “center” wrong!
Pensburgh.com -- it's like the Max Talbot of blogs*
*not just because we only work for 12 minutes a night
Hah Well, Sidney Crosby is still a center. The Montreal Arena is the Bell Centre, since it IS in the name. I will respect it.

Lol!
I had to un-learn that when I first came to the US hmpf! lol
My English teachers were always underlying in red the apparent “misspelling” of words like centre, colour, favourite and such. Still can’t can’t rid of the ou part though, but whatever. Centre is out of my system :(

have fun, mon ami
Don’t get into too much trouble up there in the MTL. By that, I mean don’t go to Crescent St. or to a bar called Winston Churchill’s. And don’t buy the bartender shots. And don’t talk to any of the random people on business trips who are getting hammered there. And don’t gorge yourself on poutine after drinking all night. In other words, don’t do any of the things I did on my last trip to Montreal.
P is for Latrobe.
Hah I kinda remember Crescent St. from my last trip up here. The fact I do remember should stand as enough evidence to my lack of debauchery.

Montreal is a great city!
I was in Montreal for the Pens last reg. season game vs. the Habs and I had a blast! Hope you have a great trip! I am excited for the draft updates!
Oh my god I am soooo jealous!
Have fun!
Hopefully, hopefully, hopefully I’ll be able to go to Montreal last week of December/first week of January. Take tons of awesome pictures :)
