Prospect Reveals the Gruesome Question Asked to Him at Draft Interview
With the NHL draft combine taking place this weekend in Buffalo, New York, GMs and scouts are getting the opportunity to poke and prod potential draft choices to ensure they are the right fit for their team. At least one team is choosing to get very personal with their line of questioning.
Your Funeral
Teams often ask those in the draft questions designed to get to know them better and to determine how quick they can think on the fly. One prospect, who didn't want to be named, said the Columbus Blue Jackets asked him what he'd like to have said at his funeral.
"One prospect said the weirdest question he got asked in a combine interview is what he wants said at his funeral. He said he was pretty sure Columbus asked that one." - Taylor Haase, DK Pittsburgh Sports
Getting Dark
I can't even begin to figure out what is meant to be determined by the answer to this question. It seems like something members of the Addams Family might ask each other while sitting around the dinner table. Hopefully whatever answer he gave was enough to impress the team.
