With the 61st pick in the 2017 Fake NHL Draft, L'Heuricanes de Quebec have a very good reason for drafting Olle Eriksson Ek, goaltender, Farjestad.

"I lived in Karlstad when I first moved to Sweden," Fake Assistant GM Dave Poulin said. "Now clearly, Farjestad sucks - they were my girlfriend's brother's favorite team, and he was a massive knob. But Ek does fill a need, and we felt that he was BPA as well, so there's that. But mostly it's the Karlstad thing. And also, when he blows, we can go, like, 'Eck!' in frustration, which will be most satisfying."

Maybe if he gained 50 pounds too! Getzlaf is a big dude. Glass might not be pre-pubescent like Pettersson, but he's rail thin. His 180lbs listing might even be generous. I saw him listed elsewhere at 170lbs. It's hard to see him weighing more than Hischier. Or maybe he just hides it well. His physical development is going to be long-term, with or without another inch or two. Gets compared to Johansen a lot, who was also raw, but he was 192lbs at the draft. Scheifele too, and he was actually a similar weight his draft year. But Glass just looks a lot younger and thinner than either did. If he fills out his potential is just so high. If we were in the 3rd spot, ignoring a defenseman, it might be between him and Vilardi for me.

I concur Glass posted a picture with his family and they are all tall and skinny, so it's just in his genetic build that he will be quite similar, even in a few years.

Panthers GM is over the time limit, autopick will be Josh Norris.

CodyTheHuman has been a full participant so far, so I think we should give him a couple more hours to show.

Any objections?

No objections. Cody is probably busy with his terrible van, and he deserves our sympathy and patience, because that van is terrible. :yo:

Also, almost no one else is even awake lol.

The Sabres are happy to select the goalie that they considered taking with both second round picks, Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen from HPK of the SM-Liiga.

Next GM will be messaged.

Sorry guys! I've been super busy at work lately. Josh Norris wasn't my top pick, but he was on my list. My top pick still hasn't been chosen. Maybe I'm the only one kind of high on him.

No objections. Cody is probably busy with his terrible van, and he deserves our sympathy and patience, because that van is terrible. :yo:

I was working on it all day Thursday. But hey! I like my van! If you want to make fun of something make fun of my motorcycle. It doesn't even run.
