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.

[ImporterExporter]

Glad you're expanding on the small amount of research I did with Imlach. I think he's under-rated here, mostly because of the perception that he's a jerk to his players. From what I found, his bad reputation comes a lot more from his role as GM than as coach.

It might take me the rest of the year, as I just don't have the time I used to, but there are numerous misconceptions about Imlach I've already debunked (evidence in bio now).

1. He definitely worked with an assistant, in King Clancy. Clancy was basically Imlach's right hand man and most trusted partner, who wasn't a player. Clancy helped both w/GM duties and coaching. They were very tight. Clancy was said to be a fantastic compliment to Imlach's more abrasive MO as Clancy was a much more empathetic character and healer.

Imlach also delegated some practice duties to veteran players. This was, from what I can tell so far, only done when GM duties took Imlach away from the team and didn't impact being behind the bench on gameday. It was also infrequent. Imlach ran many, many practices and was involved heavily in the tactical side of the equation.

2. His coaching record was stellar before he ever set foot in Toronto. This was a newish find for me. Beliveau was coached/mentored by Imlach (w/Quebec Aces) and the 2 were close. Beliveau was a pallbearer at Imlach's funeral. So far, I've found 2 years where Imlach was rated by The Hockey News as best coach in the league (over Blake). He was also coach of the year in the QSHL at least once.

3. His reputation as a coach beyond just firing the team up has long been questioned. I'm getting a strong impression from what I've found so far that he was very well respected and admired around the league for his hockey IQ. Not only that, but there are many pieces that speak to his softer side outside of the game. He was very giving to those in need. Sure, there were some players over decades in hockey who didn't "like him". A few, Tiger Williams and Lanny McDonald seemed to outright detest him. But by and large, the overwhelming evidence points to "if you showed up for Imlach, he'd show up for you, full stop."

There's more, but that's what really sticks out so far.

Thanks for stopping in Dreak. Hope all is well for you!

 

[Habsfan18]

Congratulations to both @ImporterExporter and @Johnny Engine on your well deserved ATD championship! You fellas built a great squad and worthy champion.

For IE in particular, this is a long time coming. You’ve come so close multiple times in the past and I’m really happy that you were finally rewarded. You’re without question one of the ATD’s hardest workers and your researching abilities are top notch.

@spitsfan24 You were a worthy finalist and if you choose to continue in the ATD, I think you’ll definitely make it back here again. As I said before, I think you opened some eyes this year. Great work, and I hope you keep your head held high. No shame in losing to that team.

Great work all around by everyone this year. See you all for ATD 2025, or perhaps even sooner if we decide to do an MLD, OPPF or something else.

 

[nabby12]

Congrats @ImporterExporter and @spitsfan24 on a great series and a great run through this year's ATD!

 

[tony d]

Congrats to @ImporterExporter on your win and @spitsfan24 on a good run to the finals.

 

[spitsfan24]

First off, congrats to @ImporterExporter and @Johnny Engine . Undoubtedly, a worthy winner. You guys built a fantastic team, and while my prolonged absence dampened proceedings a bit, I think we still had some quality discussion befitting a championship series.

Thank you to everybody for the congratulations. You're never satisfied with losing in game 7 of the Finals (in OT no less) obviously, and it stings to get this far only to fall short at literally the last possible hurdle. But for my first year going solo, I'm proud of the team I put together, along with the run they made in the playoffs. Now, if you'll please indulge me, I'd like to thank a few people for helping me out along the way. I wouldn't have gotten this far without them.

Johnny, you were my co-GM last year, and without your guidance, I'm sure I would've been absolutely lost this year. I agree with what IE said: it was a blast discussing hockey (and life in general) with you.

@Hockey Outsider, I know you weren't involved a ton in this year's draft, so I apologize for tagging you somewhat unnecessarily, but I appreciate you offering your help to the new GMs pre-draft, and then answering multiple questions I had over the course of the drafting process.

@nabby12, posting your thoughts in our playoff series was my "welcome to the league, rook" moment, in my opinion. I felt like I really had to be on my A-game from that point on, and I think it shaped the run I went on afterwards. Plus, it's always a pleasure discussing a wide variety of subjects with you.

@Habsfan18 and @VanIslander, what a series we had, huh? Our discussion was truly top-notch, and that series was one of my favourite parts of this year's ATD.

------------

This is getting a bit long, so I'll wrap it up now.

Losing is always tough, but we'll be back. And we'll rise up from the ashes like a phoenix.

See you all in next year's ATD, or maybe even sooner if a smaller-scale draft does end up taking place and I'm invited to it.

 

[Professor What]

I'm a little late to the party, but I wanted to say congratulations to the finalists, and especially to the winners. You guys did an awesome job building your teams this year. I look forward to squaring off with you again next year.

 

[VanIslander]

Hear ye, hear ye.

 

[UnSandvich]

I’m far too much of a hockey history novice to take meaningful part in any discussions on team stuff but I did enjoy reading people’s perspectives on individual things in the playoffs. Gonna try to follow the next go round a bit closer

 

[rmartin65]

@Theokritos would it be possible to show the voter breakdown this year? When/if you have time, of course.

 

[Theokritos]

@Theokritos would it be possible to show the voter breakdown this year? When/if you have time, of course.

Will do. Don't know exactly when, but at some point over the course of this week I should have the time.

 

[GKJ]

Congrats to @ImporterExporter for coming out the victor, and to @spitsfan24 who I think I voted for the whole way

 

[VanIslander]

Edit: ok

Félicitations! Thanks to @BenchBrawl and everyone who ran the draft… awesome as always. Learned a bunch yet again.

 

[VanIslander]

Yeah everyone.

 

[Theokritos]

Will do. Don't know exactly when, but at some point over the course of this week I should have the time.

So obviously I haven't been able to do this yet. But I haven't forgotten about it and will make good for it once I find the time.

 

[Theokritos]

The past few months have been exceptionally busy, but from now on I am going to have more spare time again. Which will finally allow me to sit down and prepare the voter breakdown. I expect to be able to do it next week. Sorry for the long wait.

 

[Theokritos]

ATD 2024 Voting Breakdown

Before we get to the actual breakdown, I have an apology to make to @GKJ and, most of all, @Claude The Fraud. While preparing the breakdown, I discovered that I had originally made an accounting error that has distorted the result of the regular season voting. What I announced for the Jim Robson Division was: 4th place, Philadelphia Firebirds. 5th place, Cape Breton Eagles. That was based on a miscalculation on my part. In reality, Cape Breton finished 4th and Philadelphia 5th. I am terribly sorry for that mistake.

I can only hope that the erroneous regular season ranking did not influence the voters too much when they proceeded to give Philadelphia (11 votes) the advantage over Cape Breton (3 votes) in the subsequent head-to-head round. Regardless, it's a mistake that shouldn't have happened.

Playoff Breakdown to follow.

 

[Claude The Fraud]

@Theokritos thanks for your work! I don’t hold your mistake against you, my friend! No hard feelings here!

@tony d, thanks for your first place vote!

 

[BenchBrawl]

Thanks for doing this Theo, with the tough year you've had it's even more appreciated.

Looking back, I feel my RS voting was harsh but fair. Punished teams for some things, rewarded others. I was transparent through the draft about my thinking. Still a hard exercise as so many teams were so close.

 

[BenchBrawl]

You know, it's no problem to rank a GM last in his division draft after draft, even if the final standing of his teams makes it a contrarian opinion. What is rather bizarre, is to then go and ask that same GM for advice in private year after year.

 

[Theokritos]

@Theokritos thanks for your work! I don’t hold your mistake against you, my friend! No hard feelings here!

I'm glad to hear that, thank you very much!

Thanks for doing this Theo, with the tough year you've had it's even more appreciated.

Thanks! In case anyone is wondering what BB is referring to: back in February I got caught under the wheel of a truck while riding my bicycle.

The truck first drove over the bicycle... then, realizing something was wrong, the driver hit the breaks... but the truck didn't come to a standstill before it was parked on my leg. It remained in this position for a few moments before pulling back, which meant that it drove over my leg a second time... but simultaneously it got me free. All this I experienced with full consciousness. The first wave of pain, the situation of being stuck under the wheel and crying for help, the second wave of pain as the truck pulled back.

To make a long story (a bit more than a month in hospital) short: I was incredibly lucky I didn't get permanently disabled or even killed that day. What's more, not a single bone or nerve was permanently damaged, to my surprise and the surprise of the doctors.

[jigglysquishy]

That's awful. Hope you're feeling better. It's a madhouse on the road out there.

 

[BraveCanadian]

Wow glad to hear that despite it being a bad accident you are ok in the end. Talk about bad luck and good luck mixed together.

I know we all appreciate you helping out and taking the time to keep things running here.
