Bill Armstrong recounts the tense atmosphere in Salt Lake City
In the context of the latest NHL draft, all eyes were on Salt Lake City, where the local team experienced a suspenseful evening in Las Vegas on June 28th.
During a recent interview with TSN, General Manager Bill Armstrong expressed his satisfaction with selecting Tij Iginla at the sixth overall pick.
However, he also revealed that the organization was nervous when the Montreal Canadiens, with a surprise announcement by Céline Dion, made their selection at the fifth overall pick.
Armstrong highlighted the tense anticipation to discover Montreal's pick and joked about how the announcement was made by the famous singer. The excitement was palpable when the name of the sought-after player was finally revealed.
He also expressed enthusiasm for Tij Iginla's arrival, son of former star Jarome Iginla, emphasizing his qualities as a sharpshooter and playmaker, along with his remarkable competitive spirit akin to Logan Cooley's.
