WJC: Statsy's WJC Pool - Volume V

[FightingSioux]

Love watching this kid play! The way he chokes up on his stick all the time is really interesting.

Yes, he's fun to watch. I get the privilege to see him every weekend. He's a dynamic two way player who wears his heart on his sleeve, brings a ton of energy to the ice and has the goal scoring touch.

I PM'd the next guy up!

Not even on page two and we have our first Pierre McGuire moment

I can't stress enough that that was not a sexual reference!

I think McGuire might have said "I saw this guy in the weight room with his shirt off and I liked what I saw."

Our draft board is now updated with the pick order. It's also hyperlinked so you can click on it and get the full sized picture.

Ha...chokes up on his stick

I've got to bring the sophistication down and childish humour up on this post. As an official recurring member of this elite pool each year it is my humble duty to provide bad jokes and puns throughout the whole tournament. Don't worry...I've got all of your Backstrom. That's terrible, instead of actually hitting that joke it was more of a poke-czech.

 

[Tomsburninghat]

With the 2nd Pick...

Team Tomsburninghat selects a good Canadian kid Dylan Strome

I also really like how he chokes up on his stick.

 

[Canada4Gold]

dammit this is tough

I'll take Kirill Kaprizov

No stick jokes here, sorry

 

[Woodhouse]

[WeThreeKings]

Not to be confused with Ulf Samuelsson, I select Alexander Nylander, from Sweden

I mix those guys up all the time!

Nylander, there can only be one

 

[Tomsburninghat]

It was either him or Strome. I figured I'd go with Strome or go home.

Yes, I once heard a bunch of protesters chanting that same thing!

 

[Khabby]

Since this asshat took my player

Ill take from Team Sweden Elias (You shouldnt) Pettersson

 

[Statsy]

I will happily grab Matt Barzal. Again, not a sexual reference.

You better hope he goes Barzal down a few times this tournament (not a sexual reference)

Tade is up now, and he happens to be the one guy that didn't get back to me to confirm about the start time. We are running the four hour clock again, at least through the day. For those guys living in Europe, feel free to send me some picks before you turn in to bed. Mark the message as pick list and I won't open it unless required.

 

[tade]

Tough decisions, but.... I am proud to select

Jonathan Dahlén, F, SWE

&

Pierre-Luc Dubois, F, CAN

Sorry about that. Usually, I just check HFBoards without logging in, don't worry, I am alive and reading everything, haha.

 

[Statsy]

Speak of the devil...

Alright, I'll grab some goaltending security with Ilya Samsonov!

 

[Tomsburninghat]

Tade is up, you want the Euros in bed, you're grabbing Barzal and someone's getting horny. This pool used to be soooo classy.

Ok...time for me to go back to my lunch. I'm having Cammalleri and Jake Beans.

 

[Statsy]

If there are any moderators watching this thread, we're gonna get shut down!

 

[Khabby]

Well since your opened the goalie flood gates worse than Ryan Miller with a 3 goal lead, I'm gonna go ahead and draft Canada's "Hart" break kid.... Carter Hart

As a Canuck fan, one single tear just rolled down my cheek.

 

[WeThreeKings]

I select from Sweden, Goalie

At least we get to watch Boeser kick ass in this... oh, damn!
