Can someone take a minute and explain to me what this thread is about?

The Hurricanes are awful, and never make the playoffs, so our board (silly billies that we are) started years ago holding our own private draft to select what teams we would cheer for in the playoffs, so we could at least have something of a vested interest in them and an additional reason to watch.

Starting last year though, we upped the ante so to speak, and instead of us picking who we'd cheer for, we'd let the actual playoff teams pick and choose who they wanted. Made it a bit more fun, and let the teams know we were doing it, rather than us just showing up unannounced on their respective boards :)

We should probably have a back up in mind just in case our guy gets taken.

Yeah it just happened I believe. We should take Minjaben. It would be fun.

edit: I was wrong, different guy.

Ha ha, you guys are awesome. That would never work on Hfoil. We're way too bitter at the end of the season when the Oilers are terrible. That and focused on who we are going to run out of town and the draft.

If you live in western canada and don't know who Corb is I don't know what to say.
More important question is do you know of The Smalls?

I'm unfamiliar with them but the couple of songs I listened to on YouTube seemed decent.


My apologies for starting an argument over country music. I must admit I'm a bit out of my element there. Usually on the canes board we fight about food and which goalie should start the next game. I'll just say that there's plenty of good county music out there. If you don't like it, you don't like it, but if you only listen to the bro/pop country that gets on the radio you're doing yourself a disservice.

After a brief review since I have always been a draft guy...Surrounded by Ahos is the slam dunk pick.

If SBA goes to CLB, thehair17 is next on my board as a good Alberta boy and we likes to bring our boys home if we can. Don't think we can go wrong.

Nah, you didn't start anything. I'm just vocal about not liking country music, lol. I've picked pretty much the worst place in Canada to live if I wanted to stay away from country, haha. I would agree that the "bro/pop" country music is the greater of two evils though!

Practicing your apologies for when you join a Canadian team's board? ;)

And the only real food argument we have over here is which Donair shop is better than the others (there's an entire thread dedicated to our favorite food, lol).

is there a link?

ive read the thread.

have no idea what you're talking about.

Do what I did - I went to the Carolina badnwagon thread. Didn't find anything there. Went to the CBJ forum, found that they don't have much active, looked at their stickied OT thread, and found the discussion there.

Whoever makes the pick in the main thread, make sure you announce it as the next draft pick to be ruined by the Oilers.

Also, we didn't win the draft lottery so this whole thing was clearly rigged to begin with.

Also best to mispronounce the draftee's name.

First off, HFOil would like to thank HF Boards on hosting this draft and congratulate the Trade Rumours and Free Agency Talk board for being the most insane board on the site. Now with the 6th pick in the Carolina Bandwagon Draft, the HFOilers would like to pick to the next draft choice we would like to ruin. From the HFCanes board, SirruNDed by ahOS.
