Hey guys! I decided that I would create a collection of drabbles for the Rangers. Just a warning this won't be updated consistently. I'll update when I get ideas. If you guys want you can send me ideas by reviewing or PMing me. I'll try to write them to the best of my ability and give you credit for the idea. Anyway I hope you guys enjoy this drabble.

Disclaimer: I don't own the New York Rangers

I waited in the seats for the draft picks to be called. I was praying that I would at least get drafted. I have wanted to be ever since I was a kid. My dream was to be a first round pick. I really wanted to Rangers to choose me.

Even though I'm from Lakeville, Minnesota, I've loved the Rangers my whole life. Especially since Derek Stepan and Ryan McDonagh are legends there. I'm always told that I play like McDonagh and that I'm following in his footsteps. I believe that the best team I could end up on is the Rangers, and it would be amazing to meet the team.

"I'm surrounded by my family, but I'm getting nervous. Anxious thoughts keep running through my head. Will the Rangers call me? Will any team even want me? I try to keep calm and make sure I don't freak out, for the sake of my family and the fans watching the draft at home.

Gordie Clark went up to the podium. I held my breath hoping that my name would come out of his mouth.

"Our first selection from the US development program Brady Skjei." He said.

I stood up and hugged my nineteen family members that had come with me. It was a dream come true! I get to play for the Rangers, an original six team, and I got drafted first round!

I was excited and happy. All of my family members congratulated me. They are the reason I made it to the draft; they made me who I am today. Without them, I would be nowhere. Even the simplest things, like my parents driving me to practice, helped me get here.

Finally, I made it to the stage and was handed my jersey. I pulled it on and couldn't stop smiling. I had really made it this far! Soon I was taken station to station with the media. I was asked so many questions, more than I could count! I even got interviewed by Jim Cerny who interviews all of the Rangers! That part was the best. Right off the bat he congratulated me and wished me the best of luck.

Afterwards, I was dragged into a room with Mark Messier, Adam Graves, and a few others. It was all a big blur of excitement. So many great things were happening. It was almost like a dream. I wanted to pinch myself to make sure it wasn't. I still couldn't stop thinking how lucky I was; first round pick for the Rangers and 28th overall. How could I not be excited about this? I had dreamed of this for so long and it's finally happening. It's unbelievable!

Soon, Monday to be exact, I'll be off to New York for development camp. I've been to New York before; I've been to Lake Placid and I went downtown for a couple of days. I fell in love with the city instantly. But like Jim Cerny mentioned, it's going to be different now since I'm a New York Ranger. I'll be looking at the city like it's a whole new world!

I'm so excited for this camp! I can't wait to learn from the defenseman coach there. I've heard he's amazing.

Finally I got back to my family and got even more hugs and congratulations. I could tell that they were as happy as I was. They were also proud of me. I had a good feeling about being on this team. I can't wait for the camp now so I can get started with working on my game!

Hope you guys enjoyed. Remember to review and tell me any drabble ideas you have.
