If you want a defenseman I think you'll have to try picking again. I will never not take the opportunity to poo poo on Cam Fowler especially with his new giant contract.

JoelJoel posted:Well, you gents are certainly not loving up my shirt list. The fact that he plays for the Hurricanes means he doesn't get much exposure, but he's a really good defenseman. As seen by the posted HERO chart, his shot suppression is really good, he generates a decent amount of shot attempts and offense, he improved quite a bit from 2015-16 to 2016-17 and he still has room to grow at age 22. I think he'll definitely be a part of why the Hurricanes get back into the playoffs this season which is why I had no problem picking him now as my 2nd pairing RHD.

I guess my beef is really just that I don't know who he is and he doesn't do lots of points. Really question: was he picked last time and if so how'd he do in the eshl sim?

While he may have had a good year, that seems like a bit of a gamble erring on the side of youth over skill. I think there are a lot of comparable guys in there early 20s that might have been safer choices, but who ever really can tell with that sort of thing?

His fancies aren't great, but I do love me some Domi. His face is such a wonderful mashup of a beautiful woman and Tie Domi. Sucks he's stuck in Arizona until the end of time. Anyway, the Stars are proud to select perennial 70 point scorer Mika Zibanejad. Great 1-2 punch up the middle with Willy Ny. He brings speed, dangles, and most importantly, the flow.    Benn - Zbad - - Nylander - Gostisbehere - Bob Coming along.

Horvat's fancies suck too but hopefully that's just a product of being on the Canucks and his offensive stats have gone up each year he's been in the league which is promising

I was looking at Domi but man his fancies are just real bad The Mika pick is good. He's a solid second line centre / winger.

How much of Domi having bad fancies is because he's on the Coyotes though?

I really wanted to take him last pick, but I figured at this rate, every single young potential top-4 defenseman will be gone by my next pick so I rolled the dice and hoped people would forget about him

I don't really put a lot of stock in shot production/suppression as a useful individual metric, but even if I did I'd cut a 19 year old on a lottery team a break. Especially with his offensive skill to offset.

He can't really pass either, he can just shoot and toe drag. He's a very unique player and our beautiful boy.

John Carlson had a less than spectacular season but should be a good partner for OEL and his booming clapper.

Carlson was still on the board? I guess I just assumed he was taken. Definitely good value at this stage.
