But it's time to GET HYPE

 

[Finnish Jerk Train]

i am so ready for the second coming of philippe paradis

my body cant take it

 

[FreshSeabass]

Not using our pick tonight would be a win.

 

[Big Daddy Cane]

I'm hyped. So hyped that I'm about to listen to Leafs Lunch lust after Brett Pesce for a few hours.

It is exactly what we want to do. Though it's a bit more high effort than our regular season gdts, we have all off-season to narrow the effort back to playoff form.

 

[Bunch of Jurcos]

Today could be a franchise changing day or a total disaster. Luckily alcohol works for both situations.

 

[Unsustainable]

Do we acquire more by trade or picks today

 

[Discipline Daddy]

Checklist:

1. Draft a tall, physical winger with no skill at 28
2. Trade pick 36 for Andrew Shaw
3. Not sign a goalie
4. Report that negotiations with Faulk have stalled, but we will hang onto him and try to negotiate again before the trade deadline
5. Dundon makes a controversial statement

 

[Svechhammer]

Been AWOL with training the last couple days.

Has the cap limit been announced yet? Assuming it's at or below $82m I could see us having an excellent weekend of taking advantage of cap strapped teams, especially if it's announced while our high value picks are still unused.

We need a bingo game for tonight

 

[raynman]

I have to work tonight but if it’s like any other night of work I’ll be on my phone way more than necessary.

 

[My Special Purpose]

Moving this from the now-defunct thread:

I'll go for the first three rounds. After that, it's a total crapshoot.

28. Nick Robertson. LW
36. Patrik Puistola, LW
37. Vladislav Kolyachonok, D
59. Pyotr Kochetkov, G
90. Josh Nodler, C

How can we *not* draft this goalie?

Hell yes

 

[Bunch of Jurcos]

I am holding and refreshing my phone for any type of news like some GM is going to call me to make a deal.

Hurry up 5pm.

Dumas, call me.

Koo-koo-ka-choo, Mr. Robertson

 

[Canes]

I predict we draft a Finn. Bold prediction, I know... but that's all I've got.

Drink a beer every-time the coverage doesn't even mention who the canes pick at 28

Your lack of Hunter Skinner...

Seriously, we need that kid on name alone.

Four more rounds, man. Four more rounds.

Wait.... the media can mention the Carolina Hurricanes? I thought they were a myth that I choose annually to believe in and share hallucinations about with you all..

It all changed with TD. We went from “not worth mentioning” to “something we can mock when we need a break or comedic relief”.

The real question is, when talking about the Canes do they focus more on the Storm Surge or the fact we went to the ECF this year.

I'm gonna guess the surge and try and wonder how player x or y is going to mesh with such an "unprofessional" organization. This goes double if we draft or trade for any good Canadian boy.
