ATD 2024 Draft Thread II

[BenchBrawl]

ATD 2024: The 20th Anniversary Edition

The all-time draft is a what-if scenario, the counterfactual reasoning tool of the academic discipline of History. The greatest players of all time, from the amateur era to the NHL to the Soviet Union, Czechoslovakia, Sweden, WHA, etc are drafted BASED on their whole career. No peak vs. career; instead, peak and career, all considerations. A player who was injury prone will be no less so in an all-time competition.

GMs are encouraged to provide bio info like stats, quotes and/or comments when at the podium to announce their picks.

(NO MENTIONING UNDRAFTED PLAYERS!)

Note for new GMs:
Active players today in the 2023-2024 season are judged BASED on their career to date, meaning no projections of what he will do in the future, but instead: Imagine they suffered a freak career-ending accident the day you draft them.

The draft clock will begin Monday, February 5th at noon Eastern. The 1st round clock will be 24 hours long, dropping to 12 hours for round 2.

2). Time Limits.

24 hrs for round 1
12 for round 2
10 for rounds 3-10
8 for 11-14
6 for 15-20
4 for rest.

There will be 24 rounds, with 18 starting skaters, 2 goalies, a coach and three others for the bench. After the draft there will be votes tallied by an ex-ATDer or mod and a regular season standings list resulting. Then playoff match-ups.

You guys are very fixated on our lack of a goalie.

Whichever goalie we end up with won't be substantially worse than any of the last group of goalies taken and will be by far the best player selected in a long time

[VanIslander]

And your team is last in your division without one!

But the key is a good fit.

Lemieux, Sundin, Pilote... the team screams a particular undrafted.

 

[Habsfan18]

The Regina Capitals select defenseman Joe Hall. Big, mean, and strong defensively. He brought elite longevity (oldest player in the league when he died) and strong playoff performances. He had a reputation as a fast brute wall, but I think that misses how strong he was offensively too. His defensive VsX scores were 100,100,85,83,77,75,60. At his peak, he was one of the best offensive defensemen in the world, while still keeping his Cleghorn-esque mean streak.

Really nice pick, here. Hall is always solid value for where he’s drafted. Pratt was a better fit for what we were looking for, but you can’t go wrong with “Bad Joe.”

We'll take an ace PKer and select Nick Metz, LW/C

 

[Hawkey Town 18]

The Shamrocks are going to split up their two dynamic wingers, Guy Lafleur and Alex Ovechkin (at least most of the time), to form a two pronged attack which will force our opponents to make a decision on where to focus their best defensive players and make it easier for us to find favorable matchups. In doing this, we're going to reunite Guy Lafleur with his real life linemate.

Chicago selects Steve Shutt, LW

Shutt has a 7yr vs.X of 70.6, which is fairly low for a scoring line winger who is nothing special defensively (although not a liability either), but his ES strength Vs.X score of 56 is actually pretty good, on the same level as Patrick Elias, Michel Goulet, Jamie Benn, and Corey Perry. Therefore, Shutt will likely get little to no PP time.


Updated top 9 for the Shamrocks:

Alexander Ovechkin (A) – Mike Modano – Alexander Maltsev
Steve Shutt – Norm Ullman – Guy Lafleur
John Tonelli – Jonathan Toews (A) – Larry Aurie


The Shutt - Ullman - Lafleur line is an upgraded version of the real life Shutt - Lemaire - Lafleur line.

As for our other scoring line, according to Joe Pelletier, Ovechkin identified Maltsev as his idol growing up, so between that and the fact that they're both Russian trained, we expect some good chemistry between those two wingers as well. Further, despite Ovechkin not contributing much/anything as far as back checking, he is actually a good forechecker with his physicality and speed, which Modano should fit well with as we played the "second man" role when he formed a nasty forechecking duo with Jere Lehtinen (to be clear, I am not comparing Ovechkin to Lehtinen). Modano also has the speed to keep up with those two, we really like the fit here.


I changed things up this year and focused on offense more than I usually do, and I'm pretty happy with the result despite missing out on some guys (Fedorov would've looked really nice on this team).


Add me to the list of GMs who were hoping to draft Joe Hall next. I am going to need a bit of time with my second pick. Thank you for your patience.

 

[Hawkey Town 18]

This might seem like an odd pick, but this guy checks some important boxes for us and comes with flexibility to play Center or Right Wing. The two aspects of his game we're most interested in are 1) his net front ability on the PP (I wouldn't call him elite or anything, but I don't think he's out of place an ATD 1st PP unit) and 2) his faceoff ability as a RHS (currently all of our Centers are LHS). We also like that he can kill penalties, is a responsible two way player, and comes up clutch in the post season.

Chicago selects Joe Pavelski, C/RW



The Shamrocks' 1st PP unit will be:

Pavelski
Ovechkin - Maltsev - Lafleur
Josi



EDIT:
Top 5 PP Goal Leaders among active players:
1. Ovechkin: 306
2. Stamkos: 207
3. Malkin: 176
4. Pavelski: 174
5. Crosby: 170

 

[VanIslander]

Interestingly, in terms of career powerplay POINTS,....(among active players)...

Ovechkin has more than Crosby and Malkin!

Backstrom & Kopitar round out the top 5 with
Stamkos & Kane also 400+ pp points.

Makes sense that Pavelski isn’t on that list. The net front guy doesn’t collect a lot of assists on the PP.

Following IE's usage of the HOH list to support picking Mike Grant we will extend similar logic and select by far the best player selected in several rounds.

We will select the 16th (I think) goalie on the top 100/200 project and the 106th best player of all time.

The "King" Henrik Lundqvist, G

https://thehockeynews.com/news/why-henrik-lundqvist-is-the-greatest-game-7-goaltender-in-history

After Wednesday night’s victory over the Washington Capitals, Lundqvist now has a career Game 7 record of 6-1 to go along with remarkable stats in those games. In Game 7s, Lundqvist’s goals-against average is 0.97 and save percentage is .962. That’s not to mention he has one shutout and has only allowed more than one goal against in a Game 7 once, and that was his only loss. Compared to the greats, Lundqvist is the most clutch Game 7 goaltender of all-time.

If we look at the top 200 list, Lundqvist was ranked noticeably higher. And higher than several previously drafted goalies.

Lundqvist is a fine choice here, but you need to amend those Vezina finishes to only show the years where he received "significant" votes. If my memory serves me right, only one of the 5th/6th/6th/6th should be counted. I hadn't checked his Hart record, but same might apply.

This is something that goes for everyone, it just so happens that I had looked at Lundqvist earlier in the draft, so I already had the info.

 

[VanIslander]

Ain't no Hawerchuk or Draisaitl, but certainly a value pick to get a starting goalie in round 14.

If combined with the greatest blueline, it could be genius!

 

[Hawkey Town 18]

If we look at the top 200 list, Lundqvist was ranked noticeably higher. And higher than several previously drafted goalies.

Playoffs tend to be weighted heavier in the ATD (and probably for goalies more than others), I think that explains the comparison to some of the previously drafted goalies. Of course, being able to draft him so much later gave you the opportunity to strengthen other parts of your team.

Sure but unlike some other goalies selected already, Lundqvist didn't have the advantage of back stopping a dynasty...he's by no means a bad playoff performer

I hope you guys have a minutes chart so we can see how many minutes your coach would plan to deploy Draisaitl. It's a sexy name for the bottom line sure, but by far not as impactful as Lundqvist
