We pick any team ever and then pick 12 forwards 6 defenseman and 2 goalies who have played since the lockout.
1. Canucks Man- Canucks 2. Beans- ? I assume the Oilers 3. Awesome One- Lightning 4. Nuxfan- Atlanta Flames 5. Toxxik- bruins 6. Doublechamp- Penguins 7. Alex- California Golden Seals 8. Semin Rules- stars
Let's start picking in that order
There was once a license plate in Toronto that abbreviated "Go Leafs" it read "Golfs". |

AO - how many players are getting picked, and are we being positionally correct (ie, 4 c, 4 lw, 4 rw, 6d, 2g)? |

2 goalies, 6 defensemen, 12 forwards (doesn't matter how many wingers or centers you have as long as there's 12 up front).

I don't think position should matter. Just 12 forwards and then defence |

Like this ! How you said it haha, like we don't need 2 lw or centers. Just 12 forwards, 6 d and 2 goalies. You could have all centers if you wanted ! I don't think positioning for forwards matter ! |

7th??? 7th??? WTF??? If Shane O'Brien's gone by then, i'm out!
    
BTW, one more thing.....i'm assuming that when you pick a guy, it's not for them "today" but for them in their prime? For example, if you pick a guy like Roenick, he will be judged as he played in his prime, not as he played in SJ in his waning years? |

I think what he meant was Roenick played post lockout, so he is eligible, but will he be judged on his prime, which i would say yes, all players should be judged based on their primes

Yes, and don't worry, O'Brien won't be gone since Utemin isn't in!

Guys don't mean to interrupt but i saw nothing on how the draft order itself will work? I am presuming that Semin Rules gets both the 8th & 9th pick or are you going back to the bottom where # 1 always gets first pick of the new rd? Something you may want to clarify to make your lives easier and the outcome a little more balanced. BOL Gents

What happened to Beans? Did that "phantom guest" from last night get him banned? Lol.....
BTW, A1, can you change my team to the California Golden Seals please? I'm guessing you missed my post earlier about that!  |

If Beans doesn't pick his guy soon, we might need a replacement. Just in case, any takers?

I can replace Beans, as I would love to take the Oilers moniker.
I'll replace him with one caveat: if Beans chooses to, he can take my place if he wants to at any time during the drafting process.
But, since Beans isn't picking right now, I'll pick a player he loves to criticize .
ALEX OVECHKIN. |

Perfect, just tell me what team you want, then you're in!
I'm going to be universally hated for this next pick, but he did play after the lockout....
MARIO LEMIEUX!!!!!!
Nuxfan's turn.

I miss one day and I get punted?? Seriously?? I was in Vegas ya bunch of big jerkos!!! I too would have picked Ovechkin. It's hard not to, even if I don't like the guy.
But it doesn't matter, I guess I am out. Nice to see I barely had 24 hours to make a pick.
Have fun guys. |

Hold on Beano, Polish ex. claimed that if you ever wanted to take his place, he'd be fine
You in?

Nope, go ahead. Polish started picking and he can continue. I wasn't really committed from the start. I will have more fun heckling from the sidelines. |

I'll do you proud, Beans. If you will be happy with the team I choose, it could be nicknamed the Beanpole Oilers!
Yes, I know, very, very cheesy humour. |

Too bad I missed this before it got started. It would have been interesting to participate.
I'll have to join Beans (elite company! ) on commentary from the sidelines.
As a corollary - I was thinking of trying to organize this sort of thing and seeing if people were interested in running a season over at "What if Sports" (upside, it let's you draft any player, any season, and you can set up salary caps etc, downside it costs$) - Still, if there's any interest at all I can make a new thread for it and organize. (Edit: Here's a sample of what each game turns out, there are of course rules, cap space, etc that's customizable within the league structure) - > I ran the 83-84 Oilers vs. the 76-77 Habs (Habs were on home ice). >https://www.whatifsports.com/nhl/boxscore.asp?GameID=1380091&teamfee=-1
Good luck to everyone. |

Can we maybe run a thread just on the picks? It's gonna take forever to run through this thread to gather everyone's picks. We're only at 5th pick and it takes an hour to scroll down.....lol |
