NHL Mega-Mock Draft Reboot - Discussion / Draft Thread - PHASE SIX! Part One!

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Our defunct franchise is going to be the Pittsburgh Crawfords. Please excuse the location, Cap. The team was just too perfect to ignore.

I knew 100% you were going Negro League, which is one of the huge reasons I was so excited about the category. It's obviously a ridiculous choice within that league, but any attention it gets, and any opportunity I get to read about it, makes it worthwhile. Really terrible choice, but great thinking, almost.

It will also be a miracle if I don't get covid. No flight was leaving and they didn't tell us what was going on other than giving half hour updates. So what happened was 6 gates worth of people packed in tight into the end of the terminal. At least everyone had masks on.

@JojoTheWhale I was really happy to see you reference the '75 Reds as one of the greatest teams ever. So much has changed with accounting statistics in baseball that it's good to see at least I didn't hallucinate that. They were insanely stacked.

Given his prominent broadcasting position and how often he liked to rant against statistics, it's always been funny to me that Joe Morgan is one of the best examples of players newer metrics say weren't appreciated enough in their day. Just a titan of a player.

The Stay Pufts are selecting a backup goalie that help teach Binnington all that he can before he hangs up the skates.

Grammar and punctuation question:

Is this proper?

"Hi Thatcher Venmo,
My name is Thatcher Venmo also!"

Is their a comma after the second Venmo before also?

I believe it would be, "My name is also Thatcher Venmo!"

The thing with commas is that they are far more flexible than semicolons and the like. If a comma makes the meaning clearer, use one - if you aren't sure, it probably means you should rewrite the sentence.

That Reds team was as good a team as I ever saw, especially the everyday lineup. Rose, Morgan, Bench, Perez, Foster & Griffey was the modern day murderers row

If Morgan doesn’t get red hot in September and Perez doesn’t turn back time in April, the 83 Phils don’t win squat.

The Pufts will take Kirill Kaprizovat LW

Kirill Kaprizov was taken in the first phase, and there is no such person as Kirill Kaprizovat.

This f***ing site is a Gong Show. F***ing worse servers than I am using, or however it works.

Agreed. Most style guides minimize punctuation, to which I, for one, object, by the way.

Defect is taking D Scott Perunovich.

@JojoTheWhale you can go if the servers let you.
