Armchair GM Draft, 2019 (Discussion Only)

[sarge88]

I think BMC got a jump on this part...?

Is that Avery pick real?

We need to keep the Pick Only thread as clean as possible to help with the ease of navigating this draft. I don't mind any joking, ribbing, and general tomfoolery, but keep it in the Discussion thread.

I'm sure it wasn't.

BMC knows their stuff.

Is that for real?

Avery??

Sure why not... the ONLY player in NHL history that can defend, entertain the crowd, piss off opposing players, do aerobics AND practice fencing all at the same time!

 

[sarge88]

This may be a silly question, but will ask it anyways...

When we do write ups, are those going to be put in with the picks?

For instance, my pick for Patrick Roy is obviously announced in the Picks Thread.... do I go in and edit my post to include his write up there?
I noticed some people did do mini write ups and accolades there...if so, I may follow that template.

When we get to the point where we're voting on teams, we should all write a few paragraphs about our team and the rationale behind why we took certain players and why we're using people where we are.

Why you're pairing certain guys together on D.

Why you have certain guys with certain linemates, etc.

It can't hurt to drop a sentence or two in the draft thread like:

I'm selecting Player X to play RW with Player Y.

But as your roster forms and you list your lines and pairings then people should get a good sense of your team.

 

[Dr Pepper]

Sean Avery?

In the first round?

Wow.

Now that is a statement if ever there was one.

 

[KIRK]

THIS ^

Okay, but all Uncle Daddy references to your first round selection are copacetic, yes?

Hahaha, no doubt.

All cool in the discussion thread.

Wanted the picks thread to be sacrosanct, but that took a hit today.

 

[td_ice]

I think it's gonna take me awhile to not think that the KINKY KIRKS's are not actually KIRKS's team.

It throws me off each time I see it.

I think that's why I didn't go with team name of, Jiggy's Mayo Jar.

Would really have been confusing. Criss crossing team names with user names of another poster.

@Honour Over Glory

Is that for real?

Avery??

Lol no.

 

[td_ice]

Lol no.

 

[Honour Over Glory]

The actual pick they wanted was Alek Stojanov.

 

[KIRK]

@BMC changes his Sean Avery pick to Grant Fuhr, so it looks like @Shady Machine is up . . . and Avery is available to pick there as Gretzky Draft sloppy seconds.

BTW I'm a her, not a him

 

[KIRK]

Oops.

 

[BMC]

Oops.

No worries, it's all good

 

[KIRK]

No worries, it's all good

Actually really like your pick. Forgot about Fuhr when wondering who was going next.

 

[td_ice]

It's a goalie run.....

 

[BMC]

It's a goalie run.....

I firmly believe in that saying: "Championship teams are built from the goal out"

I wanted Billy Smith but he was before 1979

And if you'd have had a higher pick?

 

[BMC]

And if you'd have had a higher pick?

Hasek.

 

[Winger for Hire]

And if you'd have had a higher pick?

Then you have an all world scoring line before anyone else

Snowy night here on the east coast....

Let’s have a run of 10 picks or so.

I sexually identify as a slapshot. My pronoun is Easton.

Yeah I gotta make a longer list. I'm worried my picks are gonna get taken and it's snowing a ton so I might be stuck in traffic a while.

Drive careful!

Also....I have a desk job....for the most part.

If anyone gets to 3-4 picks away from their turn, and is worried they’ll be off line, you can alway pm me the names of the 3-4 players you want to take (in order) and I can make the pick for you.
