There weren’t many surprises in the 2019 NHL Draft, except for an alert that appeared at the bottom of NBCSN’s broadcast.

Just as the Philadelphia Flyers traded the 11th pick to the Arizona Coyotes in exchange for the 14th and 45th picks, an accompanying message of a Rangers-Devils transaction appeared at the bottom of the screen indicating that Henrik Lundqvist had been traded.

This obviously couldn’t be possible with the Devils already having officially taking Jack Hughes with the first-overall pick and the Rangers scooping Kaapo Kakko directly after.

And the likelihood of Lundqvist being part of any trade deal, is considered blasphemy to most in New York.
