00:00The Bruins lost as well last night.

00:02They got the seventh pick in the upcoming NHL draft.

00:05Don Sweeney addressed the media after finding out what pick the Bruins got,

00:08and he talked about that seventh pick.

00:10Here was Don Sweeney.

00:11Well, I mean, if you have a chance to win the lottery,

00:13I'm sure you can receive phone calls in terms of whether or not

00:16you'll ever move that pick at seven.

00:18You still may.

00:19It's difficult to move up from there,

00:20but we'll do our due diligence in terms of what teams may want to jockey around,

00:24and we're still very comfortable about the scouting that we've done

00:29and the player we're going to get at seven if we decide to stay there.

00:32Well, I don't think we're going to be anchored in, you know,

00:33whether it's positionally.

00:35We're just trying to take the best player that has a chance to be the best player

00:38in the National Hockey League that he's capable of being.

00:40You know, we always value the hockey sense.

00:42We always value skating.

00:43We always value whether or not, you know, the player,

00:45how competitive a player is.

00:46You try to take the best player that you possibly can.

00:48You know, we're just in a position now where we're drafting in an area

00:51that we haven't been for some time, and we expect to add an impact player.

00:55Okay.

00:56All right.

00:56Well.

00:57Well, you know, what's the expression about if bad luck were something we'd have?

01:08Somebody help me with that expression.

01:09I don't know the expression, so go ahead.

01:11There's a lot of bad luck.

01:13If bad luck was a charm, I would be a prince.

01:16That's not the one I was thinking of, but I like that one.

01:18I think it's if not for bad luck, we'd have no luck at all.

01:21I'd have no luck at all.

01:22Is that the one you're thinking about?

01:23I think that was Plato.

01:25How much is like-

01:26Socrates?

01:27The seventh overall pick, like, valued in the NHL world.

01:30Like, I don't really follow much of the NHL draft.

01:34I mean, who's on your mock?

01:35Yeah.

01:36Adam Fantilli.

01:38Conor Bedard.

01:39No, I'm saying, like, could you trade?

01:41Oh, no.

01:42I don't think you'll get much trading-wise.

01:46Like, do you think they'll get-

01:47Trade out of seven?

01:48No, like, could you trade your seventh overall pick for an established player?

01:52Not an elite talent, I don't think.

01:55No, okay, no.

01:55No, all right, no.

01:55No.

01:56All right, no.

01:57All right, no.

01:58All right, no.

01:59All right, no.

02:00All right, no.

02:01All right, no.
