As you may or may not have heard, Rick Dudley, GM of the Florida Panthers selected top prospect Alexander Ovechkin in the 9th round of the 2003 entry draft."

Draft Day Updates, Wheelings and Dealings already in the works?
tharock098 writes "Heading into Nashville this Saturday and Sunday, the television sets of many die hard fans of the NHL will be glued to watch who will hold the 1st pick overall, and who that team will pick.

pantherboy writes "Straight from Palm Beach Post :
Rick Dudley's record is perfect, and chances are it will stay that way.
Twice the Panthers' general manager has had the No. 1 pick in the NHL draft, and twice he has traded it. And by the time Commissioner Gary Bettman steps to the podium at Gaylord Entertainment Center in Nashville on Saturday, it's a good bet Dudley will have gone 3-for-3.
