The first pick of the 7th round is a supreme shithead but a very talented defenseman. He'll play next to Hampus on the first pairing.

Instead of Tom WIlson 16th overall in 2012, the Caps could have had Teuvo Teravainen.

There are a lot of reasons to pick this player, from his fancy stats to his contract to his flexibility, but the only reason that matters is the huge man-crush I have on him.

I was worried about losing him after picking Raanta but this is almost exactly where he went last year.

Imagine if he ever plays a full season at some point!

The Arizona Coyotes are very super excited to select their second former Colorado Avalanche-ian, Mikko Rantanen.

He's a 20 year-old giant child who scored 20 goals on an abysmal, horrendous team. As much as I am remiss to select a second part of what is unequivocally one of the worst teams in the league, his ELC and prowess cannot be passed up.

Also that gives me this so far.

Landeskog - Tavares - Rantanen

Loved the guy since he was in Washington and still think he could be a really good 2nd line stud.

Currently my team, which is set up for all games to be 1-0 shootout wins/losses, looks like this:
x - Couturier - x
x - Lindholm - x
x - x - x
x - x - x

Hedman - Klingberg
Klefbom - Pesce
x - x

Talbot
x

While having 2 2Cs fill out my top 2 centers isn't ideal, Couturier is one of the best defensive forwards in the game and should be up for a Selke nomination one of these years. Lindholm is 22 and has been steadily growing, so I'm hopeful he can continue to trend in the right direction. Plus I have roughly $46.7 mil to spend on 15 more players which is really good.

Although I could definitely use another defenseman or two soon. :unsmigghh:

Him or Elias Lindholm would've likely been my next pick as a second line center is exactly what the doctor ordered. Ah well.

e: let's get Vincent Van Goat, Jamwad and Thinktank in here so i can make my pick before tomorrow.

Petry was the other guy I was considering with my 5th round pick, but I liked Pesce and needed forwards so I was hoping he'd keep falling and I could snag him with my 8th round pick.

he's been near the top of my list for at least two rounds now but I needed a goalie and Skjei seemed really good and younger. I needed a actual righty in my defence though and it was between him and settling on a second line center.

Hedman Klingberg is deadly. Easily the best pairing here. Pick up a couple old wingers that can move the puck and shoot a bit and you'll have at least one sick pp line.
