Its the last round can we just pick whenever since the players left at this point are just plugs and then fill in the holes for the ones who abandoned ship? Just to get this over with.

Yeah, gently caress it. Let's drag this corpse to the end. Normally I'd say wait for the clock but there's already hockey on TV so people are going to pay less and less attention as it goes on.

If you get mad at somebody stealing your 23rd man, well, fight em over it. I'm sure Brian Burke can recommend a barn.

Ah so here we are, at the end of the whole draft. We still have a few million dollars worth of cap space, and based on corporate culture alone, we know that if we come under budget this year, then next year our owner will expect that we can operate on a much tighter budget. So in order to maximize our cap usage to at least keep it constant for next year, we are happy to draft the most expensive player we could get at this point in time while still fitting the constraints.

Welcome to the Chicago Blackhawks, Jonathan Quick!

This completes our full line-up!

code:
Andreas Athanasiou	Nathan MacKinnon	Blake Wheeler
Mike Hoffman		Philip Danault		Phil Kessel
Antoine Roussel		Luke Kunin		Zack Kassian
Milan Lucic		Nathan Gerbe		Brendan Lemieux
						Josh Archibald

Tony DeAngelo		Erik Karlsson	
Caleb Jones		Zdeno Chara	
Jérémy Lauzon		Brett Kulak	
Nicolas Beaudin		
		
		
Mackenzie Blackwood		
Jonathan Quick		
Louis Domingue

Normally I wouldnt have cared but we usually arent still doing this once the season starts and its clear having actual hockey on is causing this to drag out longer than usual.

On that note Vancouver's final pick in the 2021 Alphabet Draft is going to be a success because the only active NHL player with a first name starting with X is still available so I wont need to cheat or skip. Welcome aboard Xavier Ouellet. This means I only have one spare forward and 2 spare D but who cares I ran this gimmick right to the end!

another game at nationwide arena. everybody keeps asking me if they can fuck the cannon. buddy, they don't even let me fuck it

Columbus had a choice of three defensemen here. Do we take the dude who gave me a puck by the tunnel in San Jose one time, the guy who's much maligned by everyone except the GMs that continue to sign him, or the mystery dude taken for a very specific purpose? We took the latter.

Now, you may ask yourself, who the gently caress is Kyle Capobianco? Well, he's a 2015 3rd round pick of the Arizona Coyotes, and has played in 14 NHL games with 1 goal to his name. Why did we pick him?

Well, his contract is $775,000, taking our cap hit to $81,500,000. "Boy, that number rings a bell", you say to yourself. "Where have I heard that before?".

By signing him, the Columbus Blue Jackets assembled a roster of 23 players who were pretty much BPA at the time of their selections and, completely unintentionally until the last pick, have built a team that is spent exactly to the salary cap.

93 Ryan Nugent-Hopkins-91 Steven Stamkos (A)-14 Jordan Eberle
71 Nick Foligno (C)-11 Evgeni Malkin (A)-43 Conor Sheary
90 Vladislav Namestnikov-21 Vincent Trocheck-62 Artturi Lehkonen
7 Sean Kuraly-15 Derek Stepan-18 James Neal
47 Leo Komarov

29 Vince Dunn-3 John Klingberg
27 Ryan Murray-88 Nate Schmidt
44 Vladislav Gavrikov (A)-46 Dean Kukan
99 Kyle Capobianco

31 Philipp Grubauer
70 Joonas Korpisalo
30 Calvin Pickard

Jared Bednar

https://www.capfriendly.com/armchair-gm/team/2757718

Final lines may be altered. Also, Mr. Capobianco will wear #99 because gently caress retiring a number league-wide for one dude.

Anaheim is:

Filip Forsberg - Sebastian Aho - Alex Tuch
Pavel Zacha - Logan Couture - Jordan Kyrou
Brock McGinn - Sam Bennett - Kevin Hayes
Danton Heinen - Shane Bowers - Keegan Kolesar
Cody Eakin

Bowam Byram - Dougie Hamilton
Ryan Graves - Brandon Carlo
Oliver Kylington - Alex Edler
Joshua Brown
Kyle Burroughs

Chris Driedger
Michael DiPietro


I like this team up front a fair bit. Forwards outside of the 4th line will I think give any other team trouble. Defense is somewhat weak but I think Byram is awesome and the rest can hold it down. Goaltending is probably the weakest part of this team

Aug 23, 2007

My two goalies are 31 (Kuemper) and 39 (Smith), which while I think is one of the stronger pairings for this season, it probably is one of the worst in 5 years. So Seattle will select Jesper Wallstedt to take over the crease in a couple of years. Doesn’t have a draft hit yet, so I’m not over the cap, but I only have 21 NHL contracts.

I’ll do my overly long post looking at my team when I wake up tomorrow.

It's toe-tapping-ly tragic!

The Bruins need some goalie depth so with their last pick, they choos Filip Lindberg!

Final results:



Gamble pick with Gusev that didn't pan out. I really like this forward group but my defense is definitely gonna be an issue, especially with offensive-minded head coach Marc Savard. Plenty of cap room though so Jeremy Jacobs also approves.

Your young and hungry for playoff success Toronto Maple Leafs:


Palat - Point - Guentzel
Kubalik - Copp - Atkinson
Neighbours - Sillinger - Sprong
Boldy - Groulx - Mercer
Newhook

Werenski - Weegar
Hanifin - Bear
Harley - Walker
Perunovich - Schneider

Campbell
Raanta

Team North Americzechiamsterdam is one of the better teams I've drafted (thanks in part to the large number of gimmick teams), and probably with the best future with the sheer number of top-shelf youngsters.

The top line and D pair are great. Goalies are pretty good, if injury-prone. Scoring depth on the wings is nice. The weaker points are probably Hanifin (possibly the worst pick I made, but the options for a #3D weren't great when I took him), and Copp as a fill-in #2C when I was hoping Newhook would jump in immediately, though Copp has started the season on fire so maybe that'll work out. I probably needed a veteran 3/4C but Sillinger/Mercer seem like they're going to stick for the season so hey why not. I would've liked a better defensive D to play with Walker on the third pair but again the options there were limited.
