Would Jagr be happy on Crosby's wing?
He certainly wasn't on Mario's.

Hopefully we're not going back to the pre-Enlightment period when people used to say and think ridiculous things such as this.

Groupthink posing unironically as enlightenment? How rich.

Because the drop-off of reliable championship goalies happens after #18.

While that's true, having the weakest goalie is still a weakness, regardless of how many there are.

I've been trying to convince myself to pick somebody else, but I can't. I'll select my team's captain, Bobby Clarke.

Thanks! I think he is, but there's another guy I really wanted to pick, but couldn't take him over Clarke.

I've had Clarke twice before. Great #1 centre but I'm not sure he was the best available.
I think this guy could be, at pick 26 a guy I think has gotten undervalued around here over the past few years Stan Mikita.

Mikita is likely better than Clarke in a vacuum, but I like what Clarke brings for building a team.

I've never selected this player before, but have always wanted to. He seems to be good value here, and is a great counter to some of the huge offensive threats in my conference.

Thank you.
My friggin' pick Morenz accepted the Hart trophy by saying WE ALL KNOW WHO DESERVES THIS, indicating Nighbor. He should be a top-15 player.

The Pembroke Peach. What a great knickname. One day I'll decide to build around him!
Okay, I got excited. All 3 Cs are great top 30 players all time.
It's so sweet not drafting. You don't care if each pick takes a month. A draft that took 18 years would be cool.

Nighbor and Lafleur, the last of the arguably marginal top-10 all time players.

Not sure there’s much case for either one in the top -10. They’re both solid picks in the 20s though.
