I'm not really partial to any remaining team, so if an actual Habs fan wants them, take 'em. I'll let random.org decide it for me.

wow, j'ai fait un gros write-up pour mon prochaine choix pis le forum la mange sans rien ecrire. celui me rend en crisse.

avec leur choix de deuxieme tour, le Club de Hockey Canadien sont fiers de selectionne anciennement de l'equipe de hockey MODO, Henrik Sedin

Ouais on est courant que il n'est plus jeune, mais il sera productif encore pour 3-4 ans de plus, et le Club de Hockey Canadien vise toujours le Coupe Stanley. On veut notre 25ieme Coupe. Ole!

english part: somebody post twins.gif, mine was too large and crashed my mega french write-up plz tia

With the 61st pick in the SAS Draft, the Winnipeg Jets select defenseman Dustin Byfuglien

Age: 28 Cap Hit: 5.2 million through 2015-16

Rationale: I needed a two-way defensemen with experience playing two-way hockey. Dustin has the stats and is locked in for a decent time period at an acceptable cap-hit. I'm probably hosed for a defensemen with decent stats and a decent cap hit by the time another 58 picks come around, so I needed to strike now while the irons are hot.

dammit there goes my pick

canuckanese posted:

Agreed on Tyutyin and Enstrom. There are still some good defensemen out there though.

Wheeler is a good pick. The thing that is "off" about him, as you put it, is that he's the kind of guy who relies on linemates to make things happen moreso than an elite forward who's going to make things happen on their own all the time. He's never really been an impact player. He's great as a complementary first line forward which is exactly what he'd be with the Sedins. I'd bet he'd be a consistent 60-70 point guy playing with those two.

I like the Hodgson pick. He's a good second line center for now, lots of upside, could eventually be a first line center.

that was exactly my logic. I wanted a complimentary piece with upside that could be elevated playing with top players, and wheeler fits that mold perfectly...its a first line that would be very difficult to shut down..

stab: Feb 12, 2003; To you from failing hands we throw the torch, be yours to hold it high

again at work so phone post but le club de hockey canadien continues to build their third line youth movement to pair with alex galchenyuk (who's a winger on my team) by selecting a draft dropper in Sean Couturier or however the gently caress you spell his name.

thank god for tempra.

big physical winger to protect the rookies, he can fight and in random seasons like a game of dungeons and dragons he crit hits and scores 30, without the ferrari penalty and cap hit modifier of dany heatley.

He should be required to post an image of Dale Tallon before every one of his future picks because he forgot to fax the paper work in time to I am not so sure Bettman

this is the only acceptable outcome ill accept to allow a pick change.

and he toxxes it too so we catch him in round 47 and he gets banned over mario scandella

Jordan7hm posted:

The Blackhawks select Sergei Gonchar.

He's 38, but he averaged 23 minutes this season in EK's absence. He is a Stanley Cup winner with 120+ playoff games played, and has been one of the most consistent defencemen in the league during the last two decades. He shoots left but plays RD and will be paired with Bogo. I expect him to play out this last year on his contract and at least one more year beyond that. His experience and leadership will help some of the young guys on our team, especially Schultz, develop into real good pros.

So far:

PA Parenteau - Spezza - Tarasenko
- - Krejci - Alfie
- - - - Silfverberg

Bogosian - Gonchar
- - Schultz

Rask

nice pick and write up!

except for you know, the fact that Gonchar was already drafted and all.

im always up when im working dammit

I select Luca Sbisa only because he is swiss.

I now call my defense "three swiss and a little rusky" my d cant hit for poo poo but my team will have a 50% pp rate

and the part of Tom Selleck will be played by Mark Streit.

Austrian mook posted:

I don't see Sbisa going anywhere actually. He takes loads of penalties, like, loads and mor soften than not he's a defensive liability. He hasn't really I,proved his game noticeably over the last couple years and I think he's gonna be real forgettable in an Anaheim core of Fowler, Vatanen and _________

he's swiss and half my d is from Switzerland so virtual world analysts can make horrible swiss cheese d analogies ad nauseam

eXXon posted:

This is a slight exaggeration. But do make sure there are no under 40 goalies left for ianss next round.

Also I looked up Sbisa's stats and he was below average last year on a bad Anaheim team and has been awful this year on a better team so uhhhh

I still think he has upside, and everybody was terrible in anaheim last year. he's one of those d's that if you pair with a smart d (ie markov), he'll do fine

Sorry for the delay, it's no big deal but I can respond faster if I get a PM because it goes to my email.

The Islanders select C Saku Koivu.

I might be severely misjudging his value, as he's 38 year old and not long for the league, but he's still productive, great leader, I have to run off so I can't say much more, I'll edit in a paragraph maybe tonight. Eases the pressure on Zibanejad for at least a year or two.

Boedker - M. Richards - Perry
T. Ruutu - S. Koivu - Stewart
Foligno - Zibanejad

Regehr - Myers

Is Steve Mason really your number one guy right now? Ouch.

I am actually going to be surprised if anyone drafts any of these serviceable goalies, because I really can't think of one being available. Unless you are doing the old broken down dude who you hope will have another year in him deal.

I find it absolutely hilarious that a stanley cup winning goalie is still on the board after steve loving mason.

also my defense will score all. the. goals.
