[Professor What]

May the hair on your toes fall off.

And those in my ears!

 

[Professor What]

And those in my ears!

No, I wish more in your ears. And your nose.

 

[tony d]

Pittsburgh selects Drew Doughty D Los Angeles

 

[VanIslander]

The clock is back on.

8 hours.

 

[Professor What]

[Claude The Fraud]

[VanIslander]

If i didn't already have Tommy Phillips....

We try really hard. Lol

 

[VanIslander]

Baltimore selects Peter Forsberg, COLORADO AVALANCHE

 

[Claude The Fraud]

Bryan Trottier, NY Islanders
Keith Tkachuk, Winnipeg/Phoenix

 

[VanIslander]

Baltimore selects Jiri Holecek, CZECHOSLOVAKIA

 

[VanIslander]

I just realized...

Baltimore has three Czechs, three Soviets, two Swedes, two Americans, a Finn... and 5 Canadians.

More than two-thirds non-Canadian.

Us Canadian hockey fans don't notice nationality until it's staring us in the face. Great hockey is great hockey, regardless where someone's from.

 

[Professor What]

Baltimore selects Jiri Holecek, CZECHOSLOVAKIA

Well, that makes one decision for us.

 

[VanIslander]

Well, that makes one decision for us.

All hail the King!

 

[Professor What]

All hail the King!

Might not be what you're thinking, actually. We've got four guys locked in that can't be touched, three defensemen and a goalie, and one of them already wears blue.

 

[tony d]

Theo Fleury RW Calgary Flames

 

[Hitru]

We finish our 4th line with Anze Kopitar from LA and a back up goalie Andrei Vasilevskiy from Tampa.

@tony d is up

 

[VanIslander]

Kopitar was a target but with Forsberg on the board, Foppa it hadda be.

 

[Professor What]

Kopitar was a target but with Forsberg on the board, Foppa it hadda be.

We had discussed Forsberg too. Had a few names we liked, but with how things played out, we liked Kopitar best.

 

[VanIslander]

Who Kronwalls Kronwall?



He hits Lemieux, lays out Shanny, finishes his checks with a vengeance; and has the vision and puck handling skills to be identified by Gretz as one of the next greatest when 99 hung his skates up.

I dare you to enjoy the next 10 minutes of your life:
