Montreal Canadiens to Host 2022 NHL Draft

NEW YORK – The National Hockey League announced today that the Montreal Canadiens will host the 2022 NHL Draft™ at Bell Centre. The 2022 event will mark the 27th time the City of Montreal will host the NHL Draft, and the first time since 2009. The city was scheduled to host the 2020 NHL Draft, which was moved to a virtual event for health and safety precautions due to COVID-19.

 

The 2022 NHL Draft will be held over two days: Thursday, July 7 (Round 1, televised on Sportsnet, TVA Sports, ESPN or ESPN2) and Friday, July 8 (Rounds 2-7, television information to be announced when available). NHL club executives, scouts and coaches will be present on the NHL Draft floor while thousands of fans and hundreds of print, television and radio media are expected to attend.

 

“We are proud to announce that, once again, we are conducting our Draft in front of the great fans of the Montreal Canadiens,” NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman said. “Montreal, the site of the first NHL Draft in 1963, is a wonderful place to bring the NHL family together and to focus on the future of our game as our Clubs call the names of top prospects from around the world. We also thank Geoff Molson and the entire Canadiens organization for their cooperation and support while we needed to conduct the Draft remotely the past two years.”

 

“We are very excited to have been chosen by the League to host the draft, which will take place in Montreal for the first time since 2009,” said France Margaret Bélanger, President, Sports and Entertainment of CH Group. “On behalf of all fans and the organization, we would like to thank the NHL for this vote of confidence, which will allow us to finally present this major event after two virtual editions, while providing an unforgettable experience to several young players.”

“NHL hockey being a major tourist attraction in the metropolis, Tourisme Montréal is happy to fulfill its mandate by contributing to the return of this event in our beautiful city,” says Yves Lalumière, President and CEO of Tourisme Montréal. “We are thrilled to welcome back teams and players in the first sports city in Canada.”

The NHL Draft offers the opportunity for hockey fans to witness the beginning of the careers of the latest NHL® stars. Recent No. 1 overall picks include Alex Ovechkin (Washington, 2004), Sidney Crosby (Pittsburgh, 2005), Erik Johnson (St. Louis, 2006), Patrick Kane (Chicago, 2007), Steven Stamkos (Tampa Bay, 2008), John Tavares (NY Islanders, 2009), Taylor Hall (Edmonton, 2010), Ryan Nugent-Hopkins (Edmonton, 2011), Nail Yakupov (Edmonton, 2012), Nathan MacKinnon (Colorado, 2013), Aaron Ekblad (Florida, 2014), Connor McDavid (Edmonton, 2015), Auston Matthews (Toronto, 2016), Nico Hischier (New Jersey, 2017), Rasmus Dahlin (Buffalo, 2018), Jack Hughes (New Jersey, 2019), Alexis Lafrenière (NY Rangers, 2020) and Owen Power (Buffalo, 2021).

 

The NHL Draft was conducted in various Montreal hotels, the League office in Montreal, as well as the historic Montreal Forum from 1963-1984. The event was held outside Montreal for the first time at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre in 1985. Montreal again hosted the Draft in 1986, 1988, 1992 and 2009.

Justin Morrow announces retirement

Toronto FC defender Justin Morrow announced today that he will be retiring at the end of the 2021 season, completing a highly decorated 12-year career in Major League Soccer.

Morrow, 34, has spent the past eight season with Toronto FC. His 246 appearances across all competitions ranks second all-time in club history. During his time with the club, Morrow has registered 18 goals and 20 assists, numbers which make him the most prolific attacking defender in club history.

Morrow was named to the MLS Best XI during for his work during TFC’s 2017 Treble winning season (MLS Cup, Supporters’ Shield and Canadian Championship). Morrow scored a career-high eight goals in league play that season, including the first hat-trick of his career on September 30, in a 4-2 win over the New York Red Bulls at BMO Field. Morrow was also a part of the 2016 and 2018 Canadian Championship winning teams, the 2016, 2017 and 2019 MLS Eastern Conference Championship teams and the 2018 Concacaf Champions League runners up. He is one of the four players to have achieved over 200 appearances for the club (Jonathan Osorio, Michael Bradley, and Mark Delgado).

In 2020, Morrow was named executive director of Black Players for Change (BPC) following the organization’s launch on June 19. BPC were awarded the 2020 MLS WORKS Humanitarian of the Year.

“Both on and off the field, Justin has been a model professional,” said Toronto FC President Bill Manning. “He will retire as one of the best players to ever wear a TFC jersey, a gentleman and a great family man who gave everything he had for the club and the city.”

Morrow was originally acquired in a trade with the San Jose Earthquakes on December 16, 2013. Drafted out of the University of Notre Dame in the 2010 MLS SuperDraft, Morrow spent the first four season of his professional career with the Quakes, appearing in 73 matches, recording two goals and seven assists. For his career, Morrow has made 289 combined appearances (MLS regular season and MLS Cup playoffs) for TFC and San Jose.

“Justin has had an exceptional career. He has been the type of player that gives everything he has and more – to his teammates, coaches, the environment, and the fans. I am so happy that I had the chance to work with him, and get to know him,” said Toronto FC General Manager Ali Curtis. “And, while his contributions on the field have been important over the years, I believe his greatest contributions will be off the field in the years to come. We have seen a glimpse of that in his role with Black Players for Change, but I really feel he has a bright future.”

Internationally, Morrow earned four caps for the United States Men’s national team. His first appearance came during a friendly against Canada in January 30, 2013. He represented USMNT at the 2017 Concacaf Gold Cup, where he played against Martinique on July 13 and El Salvador on July 20. His final appearance for the national team was in a friendly match on January 29, 2018, against Bosnia-Herzegovina.

THREE POINTS: Houston Dynamo FC host FC Dallas in final leg of Texas Derby

NEED TO KNOW:

Dynamo FW Fafa Picault has scored six goals in last seven games

Picault has scored two goals against FC Dallas this season

Houston enters Saturday’s game with a 9-4-8 (WLD) record against FC Dallas at home

HOUSTON – Houston Dynamo FC host FC Dallas in the third and final meeting of the regular season on Saturday at BBVA Stadium. Houston and Dallas have split the previous two meetings with back-to-back draws and Houston looks to earn their second victory of the week after defeating their newest in-state rival, Austin FC, 3-0 last Saturday.

Houston returned from Carson, Calif. with a point after a 1-1 draw with the LA Galaxy on Wednesday. Forward Fafa Picault gave Houston an early lead with his ninth goal of the season in the 13th minute of the match. Picault needs to score one more goal to match his regular season record for the most goals scored in a single season (10). The forward reached the double-digit mark with the Philadelphia Union in 2018.

Katy native Michael Nelson was key to Houston’s performance on Wednesday and finished with three saves, a new personal best and the goalkeeper earned MLSSoccer.com Team of the Week honors for his performance. Nelson has five saves since last Saturday and will aim for his second clean sheet of the week after earning a shutout against Austin FC last Saturday.

FC Dallas traveled east on Wednesday to earn a 3-3 draw with New York City FC at Red Bull Arena. Jader Obrian finished with a brace and Jesus Ferreiraa also found the back of the net on Wednesday. The bulk of Dallas’ offense runs through Ricardo Pepi, who leads the team with 12 goals and two assists this season. The forward scored a key goal in the previous meeting between both teams to split the points with a 2-2 draw at BBVA Stadium on Aug. 21

The Dynamo will return to the road next Saturday for the third and final meeting with Minnesota United. Houston fell to Minnesota in the first meeting at Allianz Field and will look to split the series on the road.

Here are three key points ahead of Saturday’s game:

FAFA PICAULT OWNS TEXAS TEAMS IN 2021: Dynamo forward Fafa Picault has scored five of his nine goals this season against FC Dallas and Austin FC. The forward has scored in all four meetings against Houston’s in-state rivals this season and will look to keep that streak alive on Saturday against his former club. The forward enters Saturday’s game with six goals in his last seven games and one goal shy of reaching his regular season record for most goals in a single season. The forward reached the double-digit tally with the Philadelphia Union in 2018 with a brace against Minnesota United on Oct. 6, 2018. The forward would be the seventh player in club history to reach the milestone with the club and the first since Mauro Manotas scored 13 goals in 2019.

NELSON KEY TO WEDNESDAY’S DRAW IN CARSON: Dynamo goalkeeper Michael Nelson earned MLSSoccer.com Team of the Week Honors for his performance against the LA Galaxy on Wednesday. The Katy native finished with three saves and a share of the points on the road against an LA Galaxy team that has scored 37 goals this season, tied for the third highest mark in the Western Conference. Nelson made his MLS debut on Aug. 28 at BBVA Stadium against Minnesota and has now started in four consecutive matches.

DALLAS IN NEED OF POINTS: FC Dallas enters Saturday’s match with three consecutive draws and the north Texas side has only won two matches since Aug. 7, both against MLS expansion side Austin FC. Dallas will look to Ricardo Pepi for a share of the points following his international debut with the U.S. Men’s National Team and breakout season. The 18-year-old scored against the Dynamo earlier this season and enters Saturday’s game with 12 goals this season.

Rampel captures $25,000 PLO at the 2021 Poker Masters

Miles Rampel, a newcomer to the PokerGO Studio with no prior recorded live cashes, won Event #9: $25,000 Pot-Limit Omaha at the 2021 Poker Masters for $365,500. Rampel topped a field of 43 entries, beating AP Louis Garza in heads-up play.

 

After his win, Rampel talked about how he came up in poker before showing up in Las Vegas to score this breakout victory.

 

“I’ve been playing $1-2 and $2-5 no-limit [hold’em] for 10 years, starting in college,” Rampel said. “I went to UCSB so I played at the Chumash Casino in a little $60 max buy-in $1-2 game. I started playing PLO this year and enjoyed it a lot. It’s fun to think a little bit more. Then my friends and I just came to Las Vegas on a whim and saw that this tournament was here. I thought, ‘You know what, I’ll take a shot.’ On the morning of registration, I was hemming and hawing thinking I didn’t want to start the trip stuck $25,000 with it being all pros, but I said, ‘You know what? I’ll register.’ Lots and ups and downs.”

 

With his finish in second place, Garza moved to the top of the 2021 Poker Masters leaderboard and leads in the race for the Purple Jacket.
