You can always count on the Voight and VanIslander snake draft pivot to take a full day before drafting resumes.

I still love you.

 

[BenchBrawl]

These guys are like a stop sign inside the draft.

In French! To make it more sophisticated. You see? I too can be a f***ing asshole!

[VanIslander]

Savannah selects 6’1 HHOF defenseman Doug Wilson, the reigning Blackhawks career blueline scoring leader after 10 consecutive seasons as Chicago’s top point producer from the back end, four times 1st or 2nd team all star, winning the Norris once, during the Coffey and Bourque era (those are the only two defensemen to score more goals than Wilson’s 183 goals over the decade). He led the playoffs in shots taken in 1982 even though only making the conference finals, his team making the playoffs every year that decade, and he a core member of that franchise. He scored a key late 3rd period tying goal against the Soviets in the 1984 Canada Cup semi-final. At the latter end of his career he went on to be the first captain of the expansion San Jose Sharks.

Howitzer of a shot. Great pick now.

"HEE SCOOOOOORRRRRRREES"

I always chuckle when I watch 80's/early 90's hockey. It was so damn wide open. Slap shots going in from outside the blueline, guys walking down the middle, shooting from distance, puck hits backboards, shooter picks it back up, nobody within 10 feet, gets another clean look, in the net.

Howitzer of a shot.

The video "Big Gun" i linked shows why he was the comp for a young MacInnis. A powerplay cannon.
