NHL Mega-Mock Draft Reboot - Discussion / Draft Thread - PHASE EIGHT! Part Two!

[Captain Dave Poulin]

@Hurricane28 you are up.

I just want to say I thought the Albuquerque Outback was pretty clever. Interesting and almost unexpected alliteration and it's not a plural noun. I like those types of nicknames

Forgive me if I’m wrong but isn’t alliteration two words that start with the same letter, like wade wilson?

 

[Lord Defect]

Do I have any picks left this phase?

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Do I have any picks left this phase?

No, thank f***.

Nahh, it's just the same/similar beginning sounds. Consider pterodactyl and tambourine

If you say Albuquerque Outback it's a pretty similar sound

 

[Striiker]

heh

 

[BiggE]

No, thank f***.

 

[mja]

heh

I was hoping you’d go with the Rock Johnsons out of Duane, NY.

That would've been too silly

[BiggE]

So, am I gonna get to pick tonight?

Let's just say, I don't think you need to consult a magic 8 ball.

 

[Hurricane28]

Redraft: Trumpet instead of a fiddle. I was actually pretty happy with my picks. This was tough.

 

[Hurricane28]

@Chuck Downie is up

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

@Chuck Downie's pick:

The Book of Useless Information

@pit

 

[pit]

Connor Hellebuyck: Hey buddy, you look tired.
GM Doug: Wait, what? I mean, I am, but you called me buddy.
Helle: Of course pal, I'm just looking our for your well-being.
GM Doug: What's the catch?
Helle: No catch, you go take a nap and I'll finish out the phase for you. I even bought you...

GM Doug: Ok, well, hrm, okay I guess. Thanks, I had you all wrong. I'll be back for the next phase.
Helle: Later.

...

...

He gone?

With the final pick of this phase, the Chicago Chimpanzees used their Redraft pick on GM and sele-

GM Doug: WAIT!

I revoke this man's picking capacity.

Helle: Damn it!

GM Doug: And with our actual redraft pick, which is a real struggle since my genius shines pick after pick, I choose to hold it for a later round.

And if that isn't permitted, then I am going to take what has been listed as "Soviet Brown" for our lightsaber pick and just shift it to plain old white.

And now, having notified @DancingPanther . I'm going to take this pile of pillows and nap until next round.

And Helle?

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

"Plain Old White" it is.

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

Here comes a trouble maker post again...

Didn't someone have to move their MISL team because it conflicted with New York City?

I ask because that also means that the Vancouver Pooldeads reside in an already selected city.

 

[DancingPanther]

Once again considering how clear Cap has made it that these picks are going to have a direct impact on daily life in the quackverse, I will be re-drafting our cartoon character to COSMO AND WANDA, who are capable of granting (almost) any wish at any time, so long as it's within the confines of Da Rules. And with that, the Plats wrap up this phase!

That was my footbusters.
Move all the teams!!

Yeah, that's a good point. @BernieParent if you would, please choose a different location for the Pooldeads.

@BiggE

Cartoon Character. As in "Character," singular. You have to pick one of them.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Oi! The baby ate my dingo!

We start the day with @BiggE on the clock, @CanadianFlyer88 on deck, and @Rebels57 sitting in the bank with the final pick of the phase. PantsDancing and Bern need to make their corrections, and Jojo and HC need to make make-up picks, though mascara and lipstick are probably not going to be among the selections. You see what I did there?

In lieu of a funny story, I am going to tell you that the aforementioned Bernard Parent has the first overall pick in the next phase, and the poor pervy Sandwich has the last pick. Don't blame me - blame Math. And Canada. My pick is nothing to write home about, as usual. We will probably be on a break for a while today, so gather your thoughts on Legend players and mystery rational shit and shop your balls off while you wait.

And now I am going to use the bathroom.

 

[BiggE]

Yawn

And finally, on right wing, the Methgators are mildly not too displeased to select Martin Frk.

Hopefully he can buy a f***ing vowel in the Quackverse. @CanadianFlyer88 , it’s all you!

 

[BernieParent]

Yeah, that's a good point. @BernieParent if you would, please choose a different location for the Pooldeads.

Thanks and sorry, I was intentionally lazy to not check if Vancouver appeared anywhere. Let's move the Pooldeads to iconic and fun-named Chilliwack, BC.
