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

[BiggE]

Meh I'm obviously not her biggest fan but she unfairly is scapegoated for "breaking up the band". Some maniacs think if it wasn't for Yoko the Beatles would have persisted. Like as the sole reason. Those people are weird

Oh no, it has nothing to do with the Beatles. It’s her freaking voice. I mean, FFS, half of Double Fantasy is unlistenable due to her screeching.

She has the Michel Therrien of voices

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Prove he exists

OK, but first I am going to celebrate the fact that we are past you for the time being.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

This series is good shit.

Ill send you daily pictures of Nahla if you take me as your team cheerleader when the time comes.

Why are you not posting these as a matter of course?

This series is good shit.

Would I steer you wrong?

There’s a reason I have a reputation for impeccable taste in entertainment.

Love it, classic!

It matters not - FlyTimmo is coming for me. Desperate times call for desperate actions.

The Sexpos are proud to select a former first overall pick who had some seriously sexy moves on the ice. Nasher.

Legend LW - Richard McLaren Nash

Do it to it @Hollywood Couturier

No duplicates. Also, I have seen your legs, unfortunately - I can do better.

Pain.

Strawberry is here to save the day!

@Strawberry Fields remember all those picks I helped with?!? You can't do this to me.

The Las Vegas Desert Ducks are extremely proud to select a man that has saved the United States (and even England once) from countless terrorist attacks as their team TV/Movie Character... Jack Bauer.

24 during its prime was a top notch show and any slander of Jack Bauer will be met with hostility.

Damnit, @mja you’re up.

With the remaining defenders either being fairly obscure oldtimers or HoVG types, we’re going off the board with our next pick to select our second legend Finn, RD Reijo “Rental Rexi” Ruotsalainen.

This diminutive but highly skilled player was one of the elite skaters in the sport, with some asserting that he could skate backwards faster than Paul Coffey could skate forwards. He had a short but productive NHL career that was notable for bouncing back and forth between the NHL & Europe as his heart desired. Glen Sather brought him over from the Swiss league late in 87 (PAIN!) for a boost and then reacquired him late in 90 for another run, leading to Ruotsalainen playing 43 playoff games but just 26 regular season games for the Oilers. Gretzky reportedly tried to get him to come back to play for LA, but Rexi decided he was done with the NHL for good.

Rental Rexi also caused an NHL rules change. He’s the reason players from other pro leagues have to pass through waivers if they come over mid-season, so that teams just can’t stash talent away to use in the playoffs. He’s also the inspiration for the next NJFZ selection. More on that in a bit.

Dude had to be some kind of replicant because he never used the bathroom.

Nooooooo. Dammit. Should have taken him before Black Jack, but didn't think he'd be on anyone's radar.

Nice snipe.

 

[GKJ]

Philadelphia Villains very pleased and proud to select another personal favorite of mine, a durable underrated defenseman who once had held the NHL Ironman title for consecutive games played, and also resting in power: Karlis Skrastins

Damn! I was low key worried about one of you eggheads sniping me on him and was going to pick him a round earlier. Then Cap scared me, even though I was 99% sure he was taking DSmith, because he needed a LW and Pelle slotted at LW sometimes, as did [Ranch].

I was even so confident to put together a write up, but work got in the way, so I hadn't started yet.

Nor did anyone on Star Trek

“Its five year mission: to explore strange, new worlds; to seek out new life and new civilizations; to boldly go so f***ing bad because we’ve been holding it for 79 episodes!”

I've had that pick written up for almost a week now, so I would have been crushed had you sniped me on it.
