I would be ecstatic with that draft. But I must say, The son of David Volek must be an Islander, I dont care if he ever makes it to the NHL, We need to draft him.

Dallas selects Vladislav Shalimov.

When I was going to look for who I should nominate for the auto-pick two posts ago, it was between Filippi and Shalimov, it was a toss-up and I just chose Filippi for almost no reason...

Thanks for participating, MDZ! Hope to see you next year!

 

[Kirk- NEHJ]

We need to stick a fork in Canuck71- guy hasn't participated since like the 2nd round or something.

Just make the next pick and move on. Tired of checking in- just want to close this out. So- let's get the picks in and keep the ball rolling please.

 

[Holden Caulfield]

Sent a PM to Capital Punishment, he has been very good with the picks, so giving him the benefit of the doubt here.

But I also sent a PM to Canuck71 that he's up as well, to keep it moving along. Maybe if there has been no picks by a little later tonight Velociraptor just PM Mr Momentum and keep this thing moving along.

 

[The Instigator]

What? I just picked.

 

[Holden Caulfield]

What? I just picked.

Draft board says you have picks 193 and 196 (196 is via TOR)
