NHL Mega-Mock Draft Reboot - Discussion / Draft Thread - MIGHTY PHASE SEVENTEEN! Part One!

The way I interpret the categories, the Clones are more than anything an opportunity to run history a second time. This means I don't want hockey sense. I want freaks. I had three names on my initial list for the swing here and while friend of the franchise @mja has wisely taken one off the board, he's also kindly left me with the selection I would have made at 1OA.

What if the best Goalie to ever play was given a chance at the highest levels before his Age 26 season and a starting job before Age 29? What if he wasn't criminally wasted on a non-competitive franchise? Let's find out.

@Strawberry Fields Be nice, please. Twice. <3

Damn you. We're thinking similarly. This is not going to end well for me.
 
Like I said, I'm after irreplaceable freaks of nature. Human lightning bolts that can only occur again via Cap's generous cloning gift.

@Hollywood Couturier Based on your previous post, I assume you're pleased with who we've left for you.
Danke shön.

Now time to decide between two of them or go a completely different direction.

Please hold.
 
While I don't think this going to be a selection that I necessarily regret but it has been a tough one since I won't be picking again until roughly 2025 so any of the other options that I had in my head aren't going to be there.

With that said, we have decided to come into the 21st Century with our next selection. We're going to pick a guy that similar to our first Clone pick needs to be told not to fight because we need them to not have a broken hand from throwing a punch. He is one of the most electric players i've had the joy to watch on a regular basis and it feels good to add him into the fray.

Clone Nathan MacKinnon (RW)

We will be genetically engineering Nathan to not be a total crazy food person to his teammates.

Also, Cap, you can put Forsberg at C.

@Striiker have at it.
 
Well it's now the premier franchise in the Quackverse to make their first selection in this prestigious Seventeenth Phase. Who would have thought we'd get here? Certainly not I. I hope that you all remember this for the rest of your lives and when your ancestors talk to you about this shitshow of a time period in the world the only think you'll want to talk about is the Quackverse.

Now with all of that said, we're ready to make our pick. A pick that we probably couldn't have telegraphed more if we tried. Somehow @Striiker wasn't able to figure it out and for that i'm thankful.

This man is player that i've been trying to cheat my way into acquiring but my duty and honor to the Quackverse would not allow it so instead my brother decided to throw @Strawberry Fields a bone because he signed up for hockey reasons and well... it's been a long while since hockey reasons. Once I saw the draft order I had my doubts that he would fall to me but it was good to see that a large number of our franchises continue to hold one of the main tenets of the Quackverse to be true which is that hockey is stupid. Maybe he wouldn't have even went if hockey wasn't stupid but we're proud and very happy to add him to the franchise.

We're talking of course about my favorite player of all time, Peter Forsberg. This man helped me fall in love with the game of hockey. This man is also probably to blame for turning me into a diehard Flyers fan so for that he may lose some points and I may resent him just a little bit but... that's neither here nor there.

We also like that dynamic that Clone Peter Forsberg may be the only Peter Forsberg to actually exist in the Quackverse sans a guy sitting around in Hay-On-Wye waiting for his dear leader @Chinatown88 to return.

With all of that said, @JojoTheWhale you're up.

Cap i'll let you know his position after I pick again in 5 picks.
Ohhhh ok, so I actually was right. :laugh: This is what I had initially thought you didn’t want sniped, thanks to your profile picture and the fact that people were going through top older players again, but then I second guessed myself and thought that couldn’t be it because why the hell would I be the one you were worried about sniping it?

Because you picked right in front of me...

:facepalm:

But then again you only pretend to me mad at me for dragging you in here.
 
Why do you know his last name?
