Rumor has it there could be a mild case of "scarlet fever" during the first round of the 2016 NHL Draft.
That's because the scarlet and white-clad Boston University Terriers of Hockey East could have as many as four players or recruits selected in the first round. If so, it would be the first time since 2006 that four players or recruits (Erik Johnson, Phil Kessel, Kyle Okposo, David Fischer) from the same college (University of Minnesota) are chosen in in Round 1 at the same draft.
