Hello again from the NYR Boards. Due to requests from multiple posters across the boards, I've decided to continue the All Time draft into a second round. The rules for this draft are as follows, if you did not remember:

1. Every team gets a single pick in the round, and the draft order follows the standings as of 3/20/2020 (the first day of the draft). So even if a team traded its 1st Round pick in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft, they still get a choice in this draft.
2. All retired/inactive NHL players are considered eligible for this draft (including guys playing overseas like Jagr). This also includes players like Tretiak who never had an NHL career but are hockey legends in their own right. All active NHL players, as well as players whose rights are owned by an NHL team, are ineligible
3. It is assumed that player abilities are "up-to-date" with the modern game, so a player like Eddie Shore who played in a far different NHL will not be at a disadvantage compared to say Wayne Gretzky or Jaromir Jagr
4. All players will be drafted into the organization at the age of 18, similar to the NHL Entry Draft
5. It is assumed that players will have a similar ceiling to during their playing career, and have the ability to reach said ceiling, although this is not guaranteed. Similarly, they are not guaranteed to suffer the same injury woes they did during their career (should that be relevant)
6. I'll give 2-3 days for votes to come in before the next team goes on the clock.
7. In the event of a tie, I will set up a tiebreaker poll
8. Please check the below post before voting for a player, as it's possible they have already been taken. And remember again, active players are ineligible.

Voting:
I'll update this comment as each new vote comes in, but I can only count it if it's a single player vote (so not "Shore or Harvey" for example). If you're changing your vote later on, that's fine, just make a note of it. I apologize in advance if I am delayed in adding your vote, I am now working full-time so have much less free time on my hands

Tretiak or Macinnis.. hmmmm....
I would feel dirty having to make that choice.

Tretiak - best goalie on the planet for ten-twelve years. Can we extend that a bit with better training and coaching (i.e. no Tikhonov)?

Macinnis - two incredible decades. A great scorer from the beginning, a great all-around player and top tier D until he was 40 (1st all star team at age 40!).

I'm going to go with the guy who was best in his twenties, Tretiak. We're not a legendary club, there's no guarantee of keeping a guy until age 40. Macinnis was a bit lucky and Tretiak unlucky.

I admit after giving it just a teeny bit of thought (and not looking at your post) these are the two names I came up with also. I was leaning MacInnis but will vote Tretiak just for the sake of having some sort of consensus.

I'll have to apologize... I'm too young and my hockey interest didn't begin until 2013 to be completely honest.
But, I'm going Vladislav Tretiak.

For 2 reasons-
1. I have a bias toward Russian players
2. I love the name Vladislav
