Shame AND Taunting, especially when you pick John Tavares over Crosby

But it's really not that hard, just pick a solid NHLer when it's your time to pick and provide a (funny) reason why!

he was the other dude I was thinking about


He's actually pretty one dimensional (so far). People talk about his game like he's Bergeron but he's been poor defensively and his offense didn't take off until he started playing with Gaudreau. He's good, but he's not as good as people think he is.

Thats why I didn't take him. ROR was more of a two-way player, albeit by necessity.

Plus, you can't avoid the truculence that comes from a man who singlehandedly tried to wipe Lucan off the map.

I've got 2/3rds of a 1st line and the #1 defensemen I covet are all starting to fall so I'd like to nip this in the bud.

The Arizona Coyotes select Seth Jones
He's a 21 year-old mammoth of a blue-liner already well on his way to being an elite player in the NHL. There are a few better young defensemen I considered but what pushed him over the edge for me was his fresh, long-term contract and slight edge in age. He's a cornerstone worth building a team around and it's a steal getting him in the 3rd round.


Flyinglemur is up.

^Even if he does, I move Shattenkirk for picks/prospects at the trade deadline/draft to find the cap space.

That's the guy I was surprised fell this far, although he's about to get a big contract and he's still pretty raw.

If this were real life, I'd gamble on the upside. Give him the icetime, and the performance will be there.

He's never had a shot at the NHL level, with the depth that Winnipeg has.

He's not the PP quarterback there - Big Buf is.

He's a good partner to Shattenkirk, IMO.

Nino will make a good 1st line RW, provided I don't find an older player later.

Times up, Otis.

The Toronto Maple Leafs could use some leadership, tenacity and two-way play from a #17 who dislikes Montreal. With that in mind, we take Milan Lucic.

Flying lemur, you're up.

E: The contract isn't great, but it doesn't go past 35, it's front loaded and quite frankly it's MLSE's money, and they won't give a poo poo. He'll do well with Matthews/Nino, or partnered with ROR on the 2nd line. He's a good two-way player, and it'll work well for at least 4 seasons.

No, but at least I won't get boned for a 35+ retirement penalty.

If I can get 3 good years, 2 so-so and 2 LTIR out of Lucic, I'll call it a win. He saw a slight uptick in the fancy stats since leaving Boston, so we'll see.

Andrei Vasilevskiy. Good numbers, good potential, and he'll be a starter somewhere by this time next year.
