Bismarck Bobcats head coach and general manager Layne Sedevie says it s hard to know what to make of the annual North American Hockey League draft.
 It s both exciting and exhausting. He looks forward to it, but he said he was glad it was over on Wednesday after the last athlete had been selected.
 It s fun. You have a plan, but I will say from years past it doesn t go as planned, that s for sure. . Until it s your pick, you don t know, Sedevie said.
 Coming off a successful 29-21-6 season, the Bobcats had one of the bottom rungs in the league draft. Thus they had to revise their plans multiple times before they got to make their first pick.
Og bageren havde god grund til at gøre sig umage.
- Bystyret kunne uddele bøder til en bager, der ikke lavede godt brød. Første gang kostede det en-to rigsdaler, anden gang seks-syv rigsdaler, og tredje gang blev han dyppet i gadekæret, siger Charles, og fortæller, at museet har et maleri, hvor bageren sidder i et bur og bliver dyppet til landsbyens store morskab.
- Der var mange små bagerlaug, der mødtes og diskuterede priser, rakkede hinanden ned og drak hinanden fulde, fortæller han, men én ting var de etablerede bagere enige om. De ville ikke have for meget konkurrence.
