NHL Mega-Mock Draft Reboot - Discussion / Draft Thread - PHASE THREE! Part Three

[ajgoal]

See what happens when you knock on three philosophers?

I prefer Jose, Jack, and Jim. The three wise men.

A quick note: I'm only doing this because me having the last pick in the phase means it creates no extra work for Cap (who I cleared this with in advance), thus not making it a "Wish for more Wishes" situation that ruins the fun for everyone.

No matter what sandwich you pick, eventually you're going to get tired of eating it. So let's do something a little different with it. The M.A.D. Cats' Official Team Sandwich is A Sandwich Pick. From Wikipedia for those not familiar with baseball:

Phase 3 is officially over and the Sandwich round has begun. We have now fulfilled our Phase 3 requirements and can pick anything we damn well please.

The M.A.D. Cats are adding Team Mythological Figure to the drafting categories for Phase 4. If you can justify it, it counts. We can't wait for the alternate jerseys this spawns.

This almost makes up for you shafting me for Nintendo lawyers.

ALMOST

Just a quick note to the entire Quackverse - this is not actually a license to start picking whatever you want right now We are adding the mythological figure to PHASE FOUR! and that's all. And if that's not awesome enough for you, you are defective as f***.

So is there a Phase 4A wherein @Striiker and @mja make all of the first three phase picks in alternating fashion? Otherwise we may start sniping some of their first liners to be our second liners.

 

[DancingPanther]

That's absolutely ridiculous. I love it. Thank you.

*Edit* Oh god, how many pages do I have to backread?

You could consider not backreading and going in blind. I do that more often than not. Promotion of chaos

I'll address this in a few minutes - I have to finish my coffee.

Cap and I are discussing this topic via snail mail (my own fault) currently.

There’d better be an actual expansion draft where We get to steal some of your picks—particularly players both current and historical. You vultures left us with scraps.

USPS is not the most effective communication means at the moment.

USPS works more effectively than I do at the moment, Cap can attest.

 

[Striiker]

That is one way to look at it. Here's another. We've already established that David Hakstol and Benito Mussolini meet the criteria for involvement, so your only two choices are to make the best of it or admit you're below the Hakstol-Mussolini line. Ball's in your court.

I’d bet you if you took a poll on this forum, I’d rank below them.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

I'm not going to open the new thread(s) for a little bit - I have some "bookkeeping" shit to do. That sounds important and businessy, right? Haha, you FOOLS! I'M NOT A BUSINESSMAN! Anyway, here is some shit.

1. Expansion

We've drafted 12 players so far. @mja and @Striiker will be drafting alongside us this round - they will start with 0 players. After this round, we will have 17, and those two guys will have 5 each. After this round, we (the Original 19 + Surge) must leave one player exposed from each of the three rounds. The two expansion teams will be able to choose from the players we leave exposed, plus players still undrafted. to fill out their rosters to 17. No Original 19+ franchise can lose more than 2 players and no franchise can lose more than 1 current player or more than 1 legend player (I know this might be confusing, especially for those of you who are illiterate, but there's no easy way to say this shit. Just ask me if you have questions.)

The two expansion teams can't take any non-player stuff off our list - there is just absolute shit tons of stuff still available, so it shouldn't be a problem. I will open a SPECIAL EXPANSION PHASE ONE! thread, but maybe not until tomorrow morning - I'll figure out the draft order for those two tonight and tell everyone. The rest of us can jump in that thread and shit all over the pair of them, or praise them, or just comment in general, but they will be picking non-player shit exclusively in that thread.

So:

All 22 franchises draft in order in PHASE FOUR!
We hand in protection lists which leave one player from each round exposed.
We hold a Player Expansion Draft in which the two expansion teams choose from our unprotected players or undrafted players, at their discretion.
No franchise may lose more than 1 current player and 1 legend player from their team.


2. I will have all the picks made so far in the OP in the new thread, but despite not being a businessman, I made this f***ing spreadsheet in case it is easier for you to check. Plus you can f*** with it and change it around at your leisure if you are some office nerd. The first page is players, the second page is non-players.

Endorsed.

Phase 2 where we selected our modern 1st line, 1st D pair and the goalie.
Phase 3 where we selected our legends 1st line, 1st D pair and the goalie.
Phase 4 where we will be selecting our modern 2nd line, 2nd pair.

So one lad from each Phase.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

@Captain Dave Poulin One question. You said one player per phase will be exposed, but there were no actual players in Phase 2. So it's just a random category?

I'm fine with anything. I just want to make sure I have it right.

Ja, like Chinatown said - one player from each "line" we drafted basically. So after this phase we will be leaving 2 current players and 1 legend player exposed.

 

[FlyerNutter]

I’m curious about the expansion team names and logos.

I’m sure this all makes sense, but I’m drunk and high as f***, so??

You and me both, but they have to pick their cities during expansion, so we have to wait.

So just ignore it until you sober up.

If any of you pick my mythological figure I'm going to put an ancient Chinese curse on you that will make you allergic to carbs.

Can you PM me who it is so I don’t take it by accident?

 

[Chinatown88]

No, you probably won't anyway. Biggest suspects are Jojo and Cap.

 

[Striiker]

Can you f*** their shit up anyways for kidnapping me?
