TheOriginalOrangeGoblin Posted June 24, 2008 Report Posted June 24, 2008 I'm Russian and I can tell you that, in Russia, Kharlamov is looked at with Gretzky/Lemieux reverance. Great choice.
CanadianChris Posted June 24, 2008 Report Posted June 24, 2008 Apparently, I should've gone with my gut instincts and taken Kharlamov last round.
Zetterberg is God Posted June 24, 2008 Report Posted June 24, 2008 I was drawing a blank on an NHL player I wanted so I figured the international ranks would be worth a look.
CanadianGuitarist Posted June 25, 2008 Author Report Posted June 25, 2008 Sons of bitches; I had Bondra and Naslund on my list. I'm back to the drawing board, so expect full usage of the eight hours I'm alloted.
CanadianGuitarist Posted June 25, 2008 Author Report Posted June 25, 2008 *Lightbulb* Â Got it! Maybe the most porn-star name in the NHL all-time (discuss?): Â
Lt. Al Giardello Posted June 25, 2008 Report Posted June 25, 2008 Vincent Damphousse   Very underrated player...
Prophet of Mike Zagurski Posted June 25, 2008 Report Posted June 25, 2008 I forgot about Damphousse. Nice pick.
MFer Posted June 25, 2008 Report Posted June 25, 2008 I was looking at him but I already had a bunch of centers.
JJ Johnson Posted June 25, 2008 Report Posted June 25, 2008 I, too, was looking at Damphousse. Brian Rafalski is a defenseman, by the way.
CanadianChris Posted June 25, 2008 Report Posted June 25, 2008 Geez, CG, who are you getting to play defence? I know Roy is your goalie, but still. Â Anyway, I was surprised this guy is still here...two-time Selke Trophy winner: Â Â Rod Brind'Amour, C Â And a pretty decent-scoring left winger, nearly a point-a-game guy: Â Â Brian Propp, LW
MFer Posted June 25, 2008 Report Posted June 25, 2008 Nice picks, Brind'Amour was another guy I was looking at before.
CanadianGuitarist Posted June 26, 2008 Author Report Posted June 26, 2008 He was already picked, but this pic still kicks ass; My pick is a few below. Â
Zetterberg is God Posted June 26, 2008 Report Posted June 26, 2008 Well I'm just plain old stumped now for ideas for a d-man here so I settled on this man: Â Â Bill Quackenbush, D Â 62 goals 222 assists 284 points First All-Star Team Defense (1948, 1949, 1951) Lady Byng Memorial Trophy (1949) Second All-Star Team Defense (1947, 1953) Hall of Fame inductee, 1976 Â According to Wikipedia he was the "pre-eminent offensive defenceman of his era." He also had a stretch where he didn't take a penalty for 138 consecutive games. Can't say I'm entirely familiar with him but it's not bad for half of my third defensive pairing.
CanadianGuitarist Posted June 26, 2008 Author Report Posted June 26, 2008 And to think I just made light of you being at the Special Olympics. Ironic, no? Â Teppo Numminen.
Gert T Posted June 26, 2008 Report Posted June 26, 2008 And to think I just made light of you being at the Special Olympics. Ironic, no? Teppo Numminen.  Its OK, at the regional event three years ago, a on-site volunteer tried to get me up on the podium to accept a metal. If it would have been gold.....................  Good pick with Numminen too.  Â
Prophet of Mike Zagurski Posted June 26, 2008 Report Posted June 26, 2008 I can't think of any forwards right now. I know you will all will pick some top talent, so I'll go with a coach. This man will eventually coach every NHL team. I think he's coached a third of them. Mike Keenan
Guest Posted June 26, 2008 Report Posted June 26, 2008 I might as well take another goalie. I'll take Rogie Vachon. Â
Gert T Posted June 26, 2008 Report Posted June 26, 2008 With my next pick, I select, Â Â Â Â Â Rick Vaive/RW Â Â Â
nl5xsk1 Posted June 26, 2008 Report Posted June 26, 2008 Since there are more good forwards out there than d-men, I think it's time for me to draft my third pairing, before it's too late ...  Mike Ramsey, defense, welcome to the Five   - 4-time All Star - Gold Medal winner with the Miracle on Ice team - Capable of playing the blue-line, which is what I needed
treble Posted June 26, 2008 Report Posted June 26, 2008  James Patrick  And you can call my team the Jamaican Vocations, unless I can come up with something better.
Smartly Pretty Posted June 26, 2008 Report Posted June 26, 2008 When I look at my team, and see who I want to fill out the rest of my lines, I feel that those guys are going to go much quicker than the guys I want to play defense, so as opposed to filling a more current need I'm going to play the best-player-on-my-board route. Â Â Ilya Kovalchuk
JJ Johnson Posted June 26, 2008 Report Posted June 26, 2008 I'm gonna have to go with Vancouver's pride and joy: Â Â Markus Naslund, W Â Every Vancouver scoring record Most goals in a single World Junior Championship tournament (13) 2003 Lester B. Pearson winner 2003 Hart nominee
the max Posted June 27, 2008 Report Posted June 27, 2008 Goblin's up and though I know that my silly eight hours will be up sometime this afternoon, I ask for an extension. My boss will be here this afternoon, which means no afternoon posting from me.
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin Posted June 27, 2008 Report Posted June 27, 2008 Can I just make 2 picks then? My second one, is one I guarantee you didn't have in mind. Plus I'm not sure I'll be on after about 4PM today for the rest of the night so this'll make it faster.
