NHL draft is over. Couldn't tell you anything about any player anyway. A few notable things in the first round were that Lafreniere went first overall (Rangers), which was expected. 2nd overall was Quintin Byfield (LA Kings) is the highest drafted black player. So that's an interesting bit. One of the guys that fell way down according to experts due to head injury troubles was Lapierre, selected 22nd by the Capitals.
There was some neat little cameos with who presented the picks. Ottawa for example had Alex Trebek of Jeopardy fame do the selection. But the most heart warming one to me was the last pick of the first round by the Sharks. They selected a player whose mom is deaf, so they spelled out his first name in sign language. Really endearing gesture.

Other things that have happened recently:
Max Domi was traded to Columbus. They extended him for 2 years.
Crawford will not be returning to the Blackhawks and Taylor Hall will not be returning to the Coyotes. Schneider gonna be bought out by New Jersey.
Matt Murray was traded to the Sens. Gonna see if his flame burned out or he can resurrect his very young career with a team that sees him as a potential starter for years to come.
So of course the Penguins decided on keeping Tristan Jarry. 3 year deal.
That's kind of it.
