Seems like only a few hours ago that we were at Staples Center wrapping up the first round of the NHL’s annual entry draft ... mainly because it was only a few hours ago.

The first round took nearly four hours Friday, giving more than a few kids some very long waits. The final six rounds Saturday should move more quickly.

Here’s the draft order. The Kings traded their second-round pick, No. 59 overall, to Florida in the deal that allowed them to move up and take defenseman Derek Forbort.
