Babych Please: A Week for the Rookies – June 1st, 2018
By Vanessa Jang

The current success of that draft is unprecedented, so you can’t blame a fan for being a little excited!
- Staying true to tradition, Petrus Palmu posted his ‘signing my entry-level contract’ photo for the masses to see. Jonah Gadjovich, who had played on the same line as Palmu with the Owen Sound Attack, was excited.
