The Oxford-Cambridge ice hockey rivalry in a 1924 game

MLD 2017
The draft is done!

The draft is on! PM the next guy after you pick.

The draft will last 25 rounds. You must draft 2 goalies, 6 defensemen, 12 forwards and a coach, with 4 additional picks to be used for whatever position(s) you want.

12 hour clock for the first two rounds, (sending a shortlist to another GM highly encouraged here), then 10 hour clock for rounds 3-6, then 8 hour clock for rounds 7-25.

Trading is allowed. Trades must be equal in numbers, 2 picks for 2 picks, 1 player and a pick for 2 picks, and so on. Really lopsided trades can be vetoed.

The time limit is 12 hours for picks in the first round. If you miss a time window don't panic, just make up the pick ASAP. You can PM your preferred pick to someone beforehand and they can make the pick for you.

Suggestion: POST A REASON OR STATISTIC OR DESCRIPTION WITH YOUR PICK to aid discussion and let us know a bit about the pick, as many may not be household names, especially from other eras.

You must PM the next GM after your selection. And please post a notice to that effect on the draft thread to ensure a smooth flow to the draft.

Any player from any league or era are eligible as long as they were not at all drafted in the ATD 2017 (that means add/drop are ineligible too). As soon as a pick is posted, the next team's clock will begin even if an ineligible player is chosen: the pick will simply be made up as soon as possible.

Player selection should be based on what they have done (the 'next best' draft, so to speak, the greatest all-time careers not honored by being picked in the main ATD 2017 draft), and not what they will do in the future, though it's understood that there is a bit of historical hypothetical projection with players whose careers were cut short by injury.

Players could be traded if team needs change. At the end of the draft a team could pick up an undrafted UFA and simply discard a draft pick.

The number of teams that make the playoffs will depend on the number that qualify for the postseason. To qualify, a team must meet this all-time draft roster condition: Have on the team at least ONE player from each of the following all-time hockey periods:

1916 or earlier
1917-1942
1943-1965
1966-1979
1980-1994
1995-2010
in 2017 (ANY active/nonretired pro player with 300-plus games pro experience regardless of when he began his career)

The very first game ever played in a top pro league defines which time period for the required condition (so, an eighties player whose NHL or SEL rookie season started in 1979 would meet the 1966-79 time period requirement).

On another front, there will be an all-star team of 1LW, 1RW, 1C, 2D, 1G, and 1Coach voted on after the regular season.

Thanks VanIslander for running this. 6 is a small number but it's still a fun # and we have a strong group of GM's participating so here goes.

With pick 1 of the 2017 MLD the Chicago Wolves are proud to select:

Centre Ulf Nilsson

The Packers select 6'2, 202 lbs. defenseman James Patrick, the NCAA all-star who represented Canada at the 1984 Olympics and who was on the 1987 Canada Cup winning team; his 20+ season NHL career belies the fact that for a 7-year stretch he was one of the most offensively-productive blueliners in the game, scoring 394 points in 518 games between 1985-6 and 1991-2, behind only Coffey, Bourque, MacInnis, Housley, Suter, Murphy and Stevens and just ahead of Chelios in points and ahead of Chelios and Murphy in powerplay points (Patrick at 7th). He was an important part of the Rangers for a decade, peaking offensively in the playoffs as a team co-leader in assists and 2nd in team points (one behind Bernie Nichols) in the Rags' 1990 conference semi-finals run, the very season that coach Roger Neilson said Patrick was one of the most impressive skaters he's ever seen. In his early years he used his stellar skating and great puckhandling to transit from defense to offense and get shots on net, but his consistent commitment to defensive play and high hockey I.Q. is what extended his career to age 40.

Spent a decade on Broadway as a defense-first blueliner with great speed and offensive skill who helped the Rangers re-establish themselves as a power... Patrick may be one of the most underrated defensemen of the past two decades... intelligence and strong positional play...

0807hockey19-v6.jpg


... an exceptional talent. He was an excellent skater in every way - speed, agility and power. His skating was amplified by his superior puck handling ability, often rushing the puck. He had a great point shot, always kept low for tips and rebounds... his best year was in 1987-88. He began the year playing with Canada at the Canada Cup, and finished the year being named as the Rangers best defenseman and team MVP.

I'll be back in and will make whatever picks I have to make up. It's just been a busy few days. I don't want to pick haphazardly so it will take some time to sort out who's left.

Let's give seventieslord 12 hours for his second round pick (and make up 1st rounder).

There's no hurry and it's important to start a franchise off right.

Well thanks guys, you certainly didn't have to do that for me. I took my sweet time under the assumption that I'd be skipped 2-3 times. I'd be OK with that; certainly a few of you might help to make my decision easier.

I was pretty clear on who the best players were from last year's MLD. But, with this year's ATD being a little smaller than last year's, I assumed there had to be a few guys taken last year who fell victim to the numbers game this year. And it turned out I was right - I'm glad I took the time to look at everyone.

I'll start by selecting Steve Smith, D. Smith was an excellent all-around defenseman who was able to provide a really solid mix of puck carrying, offense, defense, penalty killing, physicality and toughness. In his 8-year prime from 1988-1995, he played an excellent 24.9 minutes a game for teams 14% better than average.

And I guess I'll take Andre Lacroix, C, for the 2nd straight year. My WHA study helped to put into perspective what Lacroix's offensive output was really worth, and from what I can tell, it's not quite Yashin-level, but better than anyone else on the board. In addition, my research last year dug up a on on Lacroix's all-around game, faceoffs and penalty killing, so it's a real luxury to get a guy who's not a one-dimensional twinkie on the top line in the MLD. 90% of the time the guy who's got the best numbers left is someone like Yashin with big ugly warts, and you take him anyway because he's a necessary evil, but I don't feel that way about Lacroix at all.

Am I saying he should be up in the ATD as a bottom-sixer? No, not at all, he's not at that level of intangibles. The ATD could have gone 200 more picks and he probably wouldn't have looked like a good option for any of those squads. But down here where everything is reset, and we're comparing him as an overall package to the other centers on the board, he looks outstanding to me.

I'll go ahead and add another offensive weapon I don't know where he'll play it might end up being with Yashin and select Eddie Wiseman, RW

Rögle BK picks Mattias Öhlund, D

8542402.jpg

Oh man, I wanted Ohlund badly. Basically equal to Steve Smith, and really similar skillsets with Ohlund having less toughness (though underrated in that area) and more defense. He was the other glaring guy to drop from the ATD. I would have taken him next. They'd have been my top pairing, and 2nd PP and PK units, with two specialist combos taking up the bottom 2 pairings and top special teams units.

what if Vancouver never met that offer sheet? :facepalm:

The Packers select Fred Lake, the 'point' defenseman who replaced a retiring Harvey Pulford in 1909, immediately helping Ottawa win two Stanley Cup championships (1909, 1911), re-united for four years with Hamby Shore at coverpoint, the two having played together back in Manitoba earlier in their careers. Lake was rough, gave big hits, worked hard, skated fast with a great shot. Both Lake and Shore had been forwards before (as had been all the Ottawa players, even goalie Lesueur, on a squad renowned for its puck handling), and each could surge on transition, though Shore played up ice more at coverpoint and appears to have rushed a lot more often. Significantly, Fred Lake had twice been a 1st team all-star in the IHL, in 1906 and 1907, the first pro league with all-time greats Lalonde, Taylor, Hall, Pitre, Stuart, and Tommy Smith. If Lake had been a forward in those days, as suspected, then it's even more impressive that he was twice a 1st team all star there given the level of competition! (Lake was almost certainly a winger when playing for Pittsburgh in 1903 and winning the championship against Houghton). After the IHL, he went to the WPHL, where he was thrown out of the league after only three games for "rough play". The very next season (1909) he was a 1st team all-star once again, with the cup-winning Senators in the ECAHA, 3rd in scoring among defensemen in the league. The year after he won his second Stanley Cup, Lake was 5th in NHA scoring among defensemen. He played thirteen seasons and is mentioned numerous times as one of the stars of the teams he played for. He certainly was paid as well as the top couple of players (see below quotes).

Ottawa Citizen said:
Lake was known as an outstanding player in several other cities where he performed.

A rugged, dependable defence player, the late Fred Lake held down the point position in the hockey lineup of the time. He combined with Fred Taylor and Hamby Shore to give the Ottawa team a defence that was respected by their opponents in the major competition of the time

Toronto Star said:
Fred Lake, the stock point man of the world's champions, is 29 years old and tips the beam at 178 pounds. Lake is a Winnipeg boy and was unfortunate in his first professional game, in losing the sight of his left eye. Lake is better than the average man with the sight of both optics, however, and is without a doubt the greatest point man in the professional game. He has played with Ottawa for three seasons, helping in that time to win two championships. Lake is very fast, and has a great shot, and is, above all, game.

Ottawa Hockey Legends said:
Lake's most prominent years came alongside defense partner Hamby Shore. The two first teamed up in Winnipeg in the Manitoba Hockey League before spending 4 years together in Ottawa. Standing tall before goalie Percy Lesueur, the duo of Lake and Shore helped the Senators capture the 1909 and 1911 Stanley Cup!

Ottawa Journal said:
Fred Lake gave ***** the finest body-check of the night. ***** sailed through the air like one of the Wright brothers.:laugh:

The Toronto World said:
The best sight for the eyes of the pro fans was the appearance of Fred Lake, the good Ottawa defenceman. Lake was on the job early and worked like an Indian for the full practice. He will surely land a job.

Total Hockey said:
Fred Lake teamed with Hamby Shore to form a solid defense pairing for Ottawa...

Freddie Lake and Cyclone Taylor made a tough defensive pairing.

The Ottawa Citizen said:
The 1911 season was unique in that it was the first in which the NHA instigated a salary cap, limiting teams to a payroll of $5,000. Sens players Walsh, Fred Lake and xxxxx all took large pay cuts, reducing their salaries from the $1,200 each earned in 1910 to $600 for the subsequent season.

The O'Briens were prepared to put up whatever money it took to realize their dream. They launched an open raid on the Ottawa team, aggressively pursuing Taylor, Walsh, Lake, and xxxxx.

Jack Darragh and Hamby Shore earned $1500.00. Fred Lake earned $1350 and Percy LeSueur $995.99.

The Packers select 6'2 tall Al Rollins, the Hart trophy winner in 1954 as a Blackhawk with just 12 wins in 66 starts - making a terrible Chicago team competitive in most games - the year after he was the Hart runner-up to Gordie Howe. His NHL career had begun in Toronto where he played so much better as a rookie than an aging Broda, the Calder finalist (rookie trophy runner-up to Sawchuk who had more wins in Detroit but a higher goals against average) with a 27-5-8 record and a full half goal a game average less than the HHOFer who would retire at the end of that season, after they worked in tandem to win the 1951 Stanley Cup with the "Thin Man" named to the 2nd all-star team by the United Press. He has been described as angular and acrobatic, his Leafs coach saying he was "particularly good on close-in plays" and Rollins himself saying he learned to play the angles better.

Al Rollins Amazes With His Courageous Display

It's spelled G-U-T-S. It's the particular brad of courage Al Rollins had Thursday night. Rollins refused to leave a National Hockey League game although he was twice struck on the head with a puck, was knocked unconscious, suffered a mild concussion and needed 11 stitches to close bloody wounds. When he wasn't getting first aid, the 29-year-old goaltender was performing for Chicago Black Hawks. He was so good that Hawks were able to salvage a 2-2 tie against Boston Bruins. Rollins was amazing at Boston. He ignored a doctor's advice to retire for the night and stuck to his post, showing no ill effects from being conked. Edward Browne, Boston club physician, took Rollins into the dressing room for repairs. Dr.Browne said Rollins should quit for the night but neither Al not Chicago coach Dick Irvin would hear of such a thing. Blood oozed from the nose cut as Rollins made stop after stop on Boston snipers. All told, he blocked 36 stops.
