For years, the Carolina Hurricanes have either been laughed at , forgotten about, or looked down on. For the past few years , Carolina made things fun, had storm surges, and all we got was to be called a bunch of jerks. Well, if you want to call Carolinas bunch of jerks, we will live up to that name. For our first pick, Carolina selects: Brad Marchand

Yeah we've been kind of bad with the clock but the Duck is up until 6:59 Eastern. I know he's getting owned by work right now, so he might come in under the deadline. fake edit: Heh come. real edit: Lol never mind, Yaya is up until 7:57 Eastern.

Arabian Jesus is up until 9:40, then my second team.

So I guess Arabian Jesus time is up, I think to be fair to the guy since his pick came up late in the night maybe Menthelmoose can make his selection but otherwise we wait till tomorrow morning and give him until 10 EST to get his pick in? If he's still absent when the clock starts tomorrow we can move on? up to menthelmoose since he has the clock until tomorrow morning.

If I give him much more time I’m going to get caught up in work and miss my own pick. Blues take Alex Barkov.

I updated the sheet for you. With the 14th pick, the Washington Capitals select Artemi Panarin. e: we might want to get in the habit of tagging whoever is up next. Drunk Canuck is up next, clock starts at 10am so their window runs until NOON. glynnenstein fucked around with this message at 14:46 on Aug 31, 2021 |

yeah i dunno if it would help to notify the next couple people too that their picks might be coming up FBS and eXXon are up next in the order.. Arabian Jesus could show at any time to make his missed selection too

I always seem to get stuck with off-brand goaltending in these drafts. Well, enough! The Winnipeg Jets are very excited and proud select the best goalie in the entire league, a Vezina winner who will have to singlehandedly carry a group of mediocre, poorly-coached skaters to some middling amount of post-season success: Andrei Vasilevskiy.

The Toronto Maple Leafs select all-around Canadian hero and future Stanley Cup Champion Brayden "Scores Lotta Playoff" Point(s), along with his discounted long-term contract. This way, any future first round playoff exits are not my fault.

The Edmonton Oilers use their first round pick on Mark Stone, who had a very good 3.491 points per 60 last season.

Ginette Reno posted:Am I missing a joke here because he just got taken 17th or whatever My bad, for some reason, I looked at the spreadsheet incorrectly. But I'd still say 17th overall seems right for Point. Maybe a little earlier would make sense, but I don't know if any of the forwards selected ahead of him are clearly not-as-good choices.

I was debating Point, Barkov, Pettersson and two other untaken forwards (Tyler Johnson????) at 9 but that's mostly because of age, the rest of the forwards all make sense.

I don't know if the data carries it out but it certainly seems like Aho is able to carry the offensive load on a less talented team. It's hard to say what he could do on a team like the lightning or what Point would do on a team like the Canes but Aho seems to do, if not more, then at least as much with much lesser caliber teammates

Alright, I'm going to take Charlie McAvoy, a 23 year-old D who is probably a top 3 defensemen in the NHL right now. One more year at value at 4.9m cap hit and then I'll gladly sign him for like 9m forever.

Look at this group of tryhards building teams around young elite players. Where are you going to end up without grit? Size?? Veteran presence???

Might be a reach right here but he's really good and young and should continue to get better. Buffalo takes Andrei Svechnikov.

He is really good and has a probably-great contract but that does seem like a reach considering other players on the board.
