Elmebeck having one too many on draft night, or was it draught night? Wilcox in tow

[Elmebeck 378]

Elmebeck was picked 9th, perhaps a few places earlier than predicted when most expected him at most at 16th to 12th, some teams may have hoped to pick him up in the second round, but @GustavMattias (prediction come true) correctly anticipated the young Swede's position in the draft.

While Hockey News at this time only have second hand reports and photos that can't be tied to this night, apparently Elmebeck and @Dalton Wilcox got loaded at a bar in Brooklyn, then ordering "PIZZA FOR EVERYONE!" at the local street, until Elmebeck ended up at a local late night tattoo artist and got the New York Americans logo on to his chest. It is unbeknownst where Wilcox ended up at the end of the night.


Elmebeck on a wild night out after a great draft night, and then some. Allegedly. 

@Esso2264 and @Jtv123 did not return calls to comment.

The draft for New York Americans, and the trades made ahead of it seems to have landed them in a pretty good spot, with Flowers @CowboyinAmerica taken in 2nd, Eller @Ace in 6th, Guy @.sniffuM and Elemebeck in 8th and 9th, Nolan @studentized in 13th, Sage @AcousticKazoo in 16th, a possible steal with Grim @aCrypticPancake in 22nd, and li @Donno100 and Walker @hewasajazzman in 33rd and 35th respectively. Late picks that may exceed their position in the draft may be Martell @Shaka at 45th and Bud Knight @Dilly Dilly in 53rd.

Included in that was the trade for Wilcox @Dalton Wilcox which was negotiated with Prague after being picked up from Malmö in the expansion draft.

It does seem like the Americans are on a good path for the future.


Pizza for everyone.
