[BernieParent]

Fair enough, there are possibly bigger fish to fry.

Yeah, one or two off the top of my head.

 

[Chuck Downie]

RG3hockey is way over the time limit, autopick will be Juuso Valimaki for the Bruins. Any objections?

 

[Chuck Downie]

[BernieParent]

Thank you, thank you, everyone. I'd like to invite onto the stage, to make this 20th selection in the 2017 NHL draft, for the Ottawa Senators Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

Thank you, everyone. Merci tout le monde. I would like to thank Senators owner Eugene Melnyk and the rest of the Senators management for allowing me this honour (and I pronounced the 'u') to be here to make this very important selection for the Ottawa Senators. I traveled here with my wife Sophie, my children Ella-Grace, Xavier, and Hadrien, a handful of Liberal Party MPs, their families, our staff, their staff, and one-third of CSIS – all at a very reasonable rate for Canadian taxpayers – to represent the heart, the resilience, the dedication, and fierce competitiveness of Canadians everywhere ... and by everywhere I mean Ontario, most of the Atlantic provinces, and the good parts of Quebec.

J'aimerais aussi parler en français pour promouvoir que je comprends le peuple de Québec et pour donner les journalistes du temps supplémentaire pour prendre ma photo.

The Ottawa Senators are a team with a long and storied tradition of hockey excellence in our nation's capital. The original Senators were founded in 1883, which is roughly the term served by several of our actual senators in Ottawa and should be the time served by several others. We can remember the very first selection by the new incarnation of the Senators, Alexandre Daigle, as a time of great promise and excitement that went down the toilet in a matter of months. Much like Canadian citizens look back on the last federal election. The Senators achieved great promise and ...

JUST MAKE THE (&#(@$&^*&'ING DRAFT PICK ALREADY! WHAT A DISGRACE!

Thank you for your kind encouragement, President Trump. Ah, well, okay, the Ottawa Senators are pleased to select, with the 20th overall pick ...

From the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds of the Ontario Hockey League, Conor Timmins!!

Is that what he really says in French? I was really curious about it.

In my head he does. Then again, in my head a lot of people say a lot of things.

Post of the year.

agree. ing hilarious!! i can just see him standing there doing exactly that if he was picking...just rambling on and on like a mother****er.

Bernie, that may be the greatest post ever. Thank you. I have, however, corrected it to better reflect the honourable Prime Minister's true speech patterns.

Also, 2 autopicks in the top-20? Yikes.

 

[Ruck Over]

With the 21st pick in the 2017 draft, the San Jose Sharks are proud to select this young man from the Ontario Hockey League, playing Center for Owen Sound Attack, NICHOLAS SUZUKI.

We are thrilled that Nick has fallen to us, this is beyond our expectations. Nick is a dynamic offensive force, putting up eye catching numbers this past season in the OHL. We believe he will soon be displaying those same skills at the Shark Tank, much to our fans' delight.

Go West, young man. Go West!

 

[Chuck Downie]

With the 22nd pick, the St. Louis Blues are proud to select from Dynamo Moskow, right wing Klim Kostin.

Next GM pm'ed.

 

[denominator]

The New York Rangers are pleased to select, with the 23rd overall pick in the 2017 NHL Entry Draft, from Frolunda HC, Kristian Vesalainen!

We feel that Kristian has tremendous upside, despite being labelled a "boom-or-bust" type pick, and that the Rangers franchise has excelled in drafting bust-style players.

Next GM has been messaged.

 

[DrinkFightFlyers]

With the 24th pick, the Oilers of Edmonton select Nicolas Hague, Defenseman from the Ontario Hockey League.

 

[BernieParent]

Bernie, that may be the greatest post ever. Thank you. I have, however, corrected it to better reflect the honourable Prime Minister's true speech patterns.

Thanks for making this more Justinian, Denominator. Coming from a Liberal hotbed like Calgary I know you have your finger on the pulse of our nation's leader.

My 13-year-old daughter, who is desperately in love with Justin, would be mortified by my characterization of him.

 

[DrinkFightFlyers]

I really wanted Vesalainen with the Oilers pick at 24, but Hague should be a solid presence on the blueline. If nothing else he'll be imposing.

Hopefully, if they pick him, he fails miserably.

 

[DrinkFightFlyers]

Hopefully, if they pick him, he fails miserably.

Yeah the Rags haven't had a first in a couple years I think. Hopefully they blow it now that they do.

 

[Chuck Downie]

saophim is over the time limit, autopick will be Urho Vaakanainen for the Canadiens. Any objections?

 

[Chuck Downie]

With the 25th pick the Montreal Canadiens select Urho Vaakanainen from SaiPa Lapeenranta. Urho just signed a one year deal today with SaiPa after leaving JyP Jyvaskyla.

 

[Chuck Downie]

Anaheim's GM sent me his pick. It will be up shortly.


I encourage those who can't pick during their time frame to send me a pick. It is much more fun when actual picks are made.

 

[Chuck Downie]

Anaheim selects with the 26th pick Robert Thomas from London.

 

[Flyers1987]

Anaheim selects with the 26th pick Robert Thomas from London.

We have here live via satellite the GM of the Anaheim Ducks Bob Murray.
"The Anaheim Ducks like to apologize for not attending the draft and mailing our pick in, but this is what happens to teams when they are currently in the playoffs. We are trying to win the Stanley Cup here and not sitting on our azz like some other GM's here."

Bob is that language necessary here....Fans booing and throwing pretzels at the big screen.

"Yes it is. We feel Robert Thomas is a developing prospect who can be a top center in the NHL. We really like the way he processes the game in every zone and his defensive tenacity with the stick. He is a high IQ player. It is up to him now to put in the work in to make the NHL. All I can say to Robert is to work hard and if you don't you could get yourself into a bad situation and be a drug dealer on the street."

Bob a little harsh here don't you think?

"Listen, we here with the Ducks are smarter than other organizations. Which is why we are still playing and made the best possible pick. Thanks to all Ducks fans all over. You will like this player and everyone else can kiss my azz!"

Thanks Bob for that interview. Bob sounds like a big jerk. Well all I can say is good luck to Robert Thomas and stay off the streets. Geez

 

[GKJ]

Arizona takes another defenseman, 6'6" Nicolas Hague from Mississasauga of the OHL. Kid looks like he has some offensive potential, and we need to replace Chris Pronger with someone who will inevitably be compared to him.

Didn't Edmonton take him?
