The New York Rangers are proud to select Fu Man Drew Stafford. Come on, a 27 year old coming off two consecutive 50 point seasons, including 31 goals in one, who is having a bad season when the team fired a notable mustachioed idiot and is battling locker room cancer? Sign me up.

And Giordano is an amazing pick. He's been so under the radar in Calgary but on a good team he would be loving awesome and he has a good contract.

Giordano has been loving terrible this year, but so has everyone else there except Sven lately. I hope it's a blip, because he's been great for a few years.

Yeah he's not a #1 guy and considering the Flames back end has been steadily eroded for 3 seasons now it's not a surprise that he's struggled in an expanded role. Put back into a 2/3 position and not asked to be Mr. Everything he'll be back to where he was a couple years ago.

Steen is a v good pick who rocks the fancystats and P/60 like nobody's business. Plays seemingly every forward position too, although mostly wing. If he had been playing center regularly anytime over the last few years I definitely would have taken him earlier. Now enjoy the tiniest gif of Steen:

Could you guys stop taking all the guys I wanted? Thanks. Also for some reason I thought Drew Stafford was like 34. e: Verviticus and the Canucks are up. mentholmoose fucked around with this message at 17:41 on Apr 27, 2013 |

I'm glad you guys are rushing on all the good Blues players because I'd rather cut my own loving hand off before I picked a single one of them. So. Keep doing that.

Well I'm left-handed for writing, but I dunno what my dominant hand is for chopping stuff with a hatchet, so I guess we'd have to try both.

Steen is a really good pick and was one of the top Cs I had in mind for my second line. He chips in offensively and is very good defensively. Also, just a thought; I bet we'd be getting a lot more lists submitted if we cut the pick time down. Paulocaust fucked around with this message at 20:01 on Apr 27, 2013 |

gently caress me i wrote up a pick and mis-typed the search in the spreadsheet and he was taken i'll just hurry this along, sorry. i'll take jannik hansen - prob one of the best forecheckers in the league, has the offensive talent to hang with pretty much anyone - he won't carry a line offensively but there's nobody in the league you cant play him against, and if you pair him with good playmakers he can absolutely run with it amazing contract, he's at 1.35m this year and next edit: also i desperately need right wings

The Edmonton Oilers select, from the Winnipeg Jets, Goaltender Ondrej Pavelec. He is 25. He is signed until 2016-17 at a cap hit of $3,900,000. And he's done pretty good on some pretty bad teams. He plays a ton of games--like all but 4 this season, and 68/82 last season. While it's troubling that he frequently leads the league in goals against (well, this year and last year he did), he's also up there in minutes and shots against. And did I mention he's been on bad teams? We are confident that Pavelec will anchor this team for a long time. And not in a bad way!!! He had a .914 sv% on the 2010-11 Atlanta Thrashers team that finished 12th in the East/25th in the league.

With our 8th round pick the Tampa Bay Lightning are going to select Andrej Meszaros Position: D Age: 27 Cap Hit: $4,000,000 through 2013-2014 I figured I needed to shore up the defense some I guess. And I don't know a ton about him, but he seems pretty solid probably. Injuries haven't really been an issue until recently, and for our intents and purposes, the shoulder one from this year hasn't happened. He's a pretty big guy too. Which I hear is nice on the defensive end. That's the word on the street at least.

Meszaros is alright, but the injuries are becoming a serious issue, and that contract was probably a bit of an overpay even when he was healthy. e: He's a Flyers defenseman, that's how you know the pick was bad.

It's really young and full of guys who theoretically haven't quite hit their ceiling yet, but also has some injury concerns (Skinner/Meszaros/Lehtonen), and a lack of proven top end talent outside of Kane who isn't a guy who can carry a team into the playoffs (yet).

Dear Diary, today I added some grit and clutch goal scoring presence down the right side by drafting Johan Franzen The Mule can still "kick" and paired with Dubinsky and a yet-to-be-named LW, will form a 2nd line that is absolutely zero fun to play against. And I lived in SK very, very briefly and yes, I am a bear. edit: Baertschi-Duchene-Oshie XXX-Dubinsky-Franzen XXX-XXX-XXX Doughty-Kronwall XXX-XXX XXX-XXX Anderson XXX

Expanding on my Pavelec sucks comments: Guy has never put up above .915 in the NHL or AHL. Is routinely sub .910. He has backup stats but somehow has a starter's job and is being paid as though he was a real starter. Being on bad teams is no excuse. Pavelec is just not an NHL caliber starter. Should be a backup, will eventually be a backup. We'll all say "hey remember when Pavelec started for a few years? That sure was crazy." Just like we do with Alex auld. Love the mule pick. Franzen is a beast in the post season. Who cares that's he's older as long as he shows up when it matters.
