I've had him on my radar for awhile. I'm surprised he didn't go a lot sooner.

Yeah he's an interesting prospect. I don't think he has high end talent but he could be a very good third line player.

I'm taking Erik Gudbranson, which might be surprising because I actively and loudly complain about Erik Gudbranson at any possible opportunity. That being said, he's good value for this late in the draft and I have no qualms about him playing bottom pairing minutes.

Next up for the Kings is a 7th d-man. After all, Streit is old. So why not have a lefty in Patrick Wiercioch to cover him for a few games every now and then?

Ginette already has a coach, so I'm going to go ahead and pick my guy to wrap this up. I can't imagine there's a line to take this guy.

I'm taking Patrick Roy, so that he can ruin another young team. (nah, seriously I think Roy had some real strong points as a coach, like his willingness to pull the goalie super early. Also, as much as I think Holden was trash, I did like that Roy was willing to lean so heavily on an unheralded guy who he liked. The colorado situation wasn't just because of the coach.)

I present to you, the Carolina Hurricanes:

Mantha - Reinhardt - Marner
Eriksson Ek - Point - Vrana
Eriksson - Plekanec - Kase
Kulemin - Dickinson - Brouwer
13th forward: Soderberg

Theodore - Ekblad
Johns - Carlo
Morin - Montour

Murray
Lehtonen

Extras: Jon Gillies, Nick Suzuki

Coach: Mr. Patrick Roy

Uhhhhh I miscalculated on the Dickinson pick and missed the floor by a couple hundred K. Looks like Nick Suzuki is going back to the minors and somebody is getting a 1.5M$ contract.

Im still allowed to take dead players for simulation purposes right? Cause if so gimme Marian "Old Man" Hossa. And to cap it off the Rangers need a no-nonsense coach that appreciates aged players like a fine wine and punishes younger players for personality and fun, so Michel Therrien welcome to The Big Apple.

If I cant have Hossa then I will pick in a bit after I eat.

I guess so. There's nothing in the rules that says you can't draft guys like Horton, Clarkson, etc. Hossa would fall under that category. So if you want him then go nuts.

simulation purposes

Thanks for bringing it up.

First things first, as people complete their rosters, I'll post them to the thread. If you (the drafter) could give them a quick once over to make sure they're all there. I've been adding them day by day to hopefully minimize mistakes, but it's entirely possible that something somewhere slipped through the cracks. To that end, I’ve attached all the teams that are complete as of right now.

Secondly, I had initially planned on just running through a season in EHM, posting updates around the Olympic break, end of the regular season, etc. However, I saw this thread and thought it might be neat to do something similar, if enough people were interested in it. If you don’t feel like clicking the link, the basic premise is that the sim goes week by week, and I’ll post weekly updates to scoring, player of the week, injuries, standings, boxscores, etc. and give people the chance to shuffle lines as desired.

If you guys don’t want to do that, that’s fine too. I’ll just do a normal sim through.

As mentioned previously, the rosters (ignore the injury stuff):
Anaheim Ducks



Buffalo Sabres



Carolina Hurricanes



Minnesota Wild



Montreal Canadiens



New York Rangers



Pittsburgh Penguins



St. Louis Blues



Toronto Maple Leafs



Winnipeg Jets
