NHL 1st Overall slogan

[Broad Street Buddies]

«Keep Lapperière Sweep Lafrenière»

 

[Machinehead]

I would have to learn how the f*** to pronounce Lafreniere before I can rhyme it.

 

[alko]

There are two guys for 2021 draft:

Cameron Whynot and Owen Power. Lets be creative.

 

[Morlu]

I thought it was “No honor for Connor.” For McDavid as in tank for McDavid. For Matthews it should’ve been “Please lose for Matthews.”

 

[Karl Eriksson]

I could have stopped my comment after the first sentence but I decided to give it a try. You should too instead of just vomitting on others.

They were horrible suggestions.

 

[Ceremony]

It started in 2009 with Tanking For Tavares. 2017 was Concede Hat-tricks For Patrick. 2013 was No Winnin' For MacKinnon. 2015 was No Honour For Connor.

 

[HabsQC]

They were horrible suggestions.

Let's compare them to yours. You could also try to do it in your 2nd language as I did to be 100% fair.

 

[Garbageyuk]

The cringe...

 

[SKRusty]

Everything ends in Edmonton .

 

[puckpilot]

All these cheers hurt my ears and grind my gears.
But dam these bad puns. They're just too fun.
So I'll add my own to the collective moan.

Slack for Jack.

Slack for Jack.

Problem being eichel wasn't in contention for 1 st overall at any point so while i get what you're going for not sure it fits the theme..

[Sprague Cleghorn]

I would have to learn how the **** to pronounce Lafreniere before I can rhyme it.

Closest way an english person can pronounce it properly

La Fruh Niair

 

[Deen]

"Miss cues for Hughes"

 

[TomasHertlsRooster]

Play like your entire roster was born south of Texas for Alexis.

 

[HabsTown]

''Oilers to copy for Alexis'' (Alex''ee'' pronounced in French)

 

[abo9]

Surprised no one came up with

"Play shitty for Alexis"

 

[MayDay]

It all started back in 2010...

2020: "????"
2019: "Lose for Hughes" - Jack Hughes
2018: "Fallin' for Dahlin" - Rasmus Dahlin
2017: "????" - Nico Hischier
2016: "Lose for Matthews" - Auston Matthews
2015: "Honor for Connor" - Connor McDavid
2014: "Get bad for Ekblad" - Aaron Ekblad
2013: "Go to the beginin' for Mckinnon" - Nathan Mckinnon
2012: "Fail for Nail" - Nail Yakupov
2011: "Dying for Ryan" - RNH
2010: "Fall for Hall" - Taylor Hall

PS: I understand this is cringe-worthy as the Canes dance...

In 2017, all the hype was for Nolan Patrick at #1, not for Hischier.

And in 2014, there wasn't really a consensus #1 all year. Ekblad became a slight favorite towards the very end of the year, but for most of that year it seemed a toss-up between Ekblad, Reinhart, and Bennett all having a good chance to go first.

 

[Fig]

I thought it was “No honor for Connor.” For McDavid as in tank for McDavid. For Matthews it should’ve been “Please lose for Matthews.”

What about, "We shat for Matt?"
But isn't shortening it to "Lose for Matthews" more simple and elegant?

A generic one for Lafreniere could be, "Let's just fall for a shot at 1OA"
Wins go bye bye to draft da french guy.

More generic could be:
We'll blow the show, to draft a beau.
Less is more if __________'s in store.

 

[Cellee]

Fail for Nail is the best

Because of the irony?

 

[puckpilot]

Problem being eichel wasn't on contention for 1 st overall at any point so while i get what you're going for not sure it fits the theme..

Umm... Jack Hughes.

 

[Ryan Michaels]

I would have to learn how the **** to pronounce Lafreniere before I can rhyme it.

Not according to half the attempts in this thread.

 

[agent082]

Be wacko for Kakko

 

[Paperbagofglory]

Play like smelly sack and draft Jack.

Suck Cack for Jack.

Continue the ruse for Hughes

Refuse to not lose for Hughes

End the Abuse draft Hughes

Play Eddie Lack to draft Jack

Build a shit stack and pick Jack

Light the rebuild fuse for Hughes

Any of these get the seal of approval?

 

[MayDay]

It started in 2009 with Tanking For Tavares.

No, it didn't.

It started in 1983-84, with the Penguins openly (and successfully) tanking for Mario Lemieux.
