Jordan Stall is ready for something new.

It’s been an unforgettable weekend for Jordan Staal. First a new bride, then a new team with his older brother.

Staal was midway through his wedding reception when he found out the Pittsburgh Penguins had traded him to his big brother’s team the Carolina Hurricanes.

After Staal turned down Pittsburgh’s offer of a 10-year contract extension earlier in the week, the Penguins pulled off the biggest blockbuster at the NHL draft Friday night when they dealt him for center Brandon Sutter, defenceman Brian Dumoulin and the No. 8 pick.

"I don’t think we knew when we were planning our wedding date that it was on the draft day and something like that would happen, but that’s the way it goes sometimes," Staal said Saturday during an impromptu conference call with reporters.

Jamie McGinn 's younger brother was drafted this year. He had chosen not to attend the draft.

McGinn was the big surprise. Rated 49th amongst North American skaters by the NHL’s Central Scouting Bureau, he was rated behind Richard and Kosmachuk. A wrist injury that kept him out of the lineup for weeks last season didn’t help.

But strong bloodlines (one of his brothers plays for the Colorado Avalanche, another brother is in the Philadelphia Flyers system) and some strong connections between the Hurricanes and Storm coach Scott Walker and general manager Mike Kelly likely helped.

McGinn didn’t even make the trip to Pittsburgh for the seven-round draft.

For some siblings this causes rivalries.

Malcolm Subban could not stop smiling, could not stop laughing.

Here he was, the younger brother of Montreal Canadiens defenceman P.K. Subban, now wearing a Boston Bruins jersey after being selected 24th overall in the NHL Entry Draft on Friday night.

"The rivalry’s just about to begin," joked Subban, an athletic goaltender who played for the Belleville Bulls. "I don’t know if he’s going to like me too much. But to be honest I never liked him that much."
