I was on Zoom with
@Grimes during the first half of the 1st tonight. When Columbus took Johnson, we were like “alright, so who’s our guy? Sillinger?” And then it hit us “Oh shit. Guenther is still on the board!” I was like, I think Detroit is taking Edvinsson to pair with Seider. They’ve taken Raymond and Zadina and they’re not doing another winger. They took Edvinsson and we cheered. Then San Jose was up. And we were like, okay. This is where it stops. But we both agreed we didn’t want the tiny winger Eklund and were cheering for San Jose to take him. They did. We celebrated. LA was up and Grimes was like “they have to go D” and he was right. It was Clarke and we’re like “Holy shit! It really happened. I can’t believe it! Guenther fell! This is nuts!” And when they picked him we went nuts.
It sure felt to us like “we got our guy!” even though we weren’t planning on it and didn’t think it would/could happen. But if you asked this pair of fans, we’d tell ya “we had him way higher and we couldn’t believe he fell and were so happy we got him!” And ya know what? We wouldn’t be lying to you.
