Whatever happens, happens.
Hitmen forward Carson Focht knows exactly where he is listed on NHL Central Scouting and knows that anything could happen on draft day.
The 18-year-old is as even keel as they come with the 2018 NHL Draft just a week away.
"It's what you work for your whole life and it's one step from making your ultimate goal of making the NHL come true," he said. "If I get drafted that's great, if I don't that's okay too. I'm not worried too much about what will happen because I know either way it's after the draft the real work begins.
"I'm excited to see what the future holds for me."
