TOP 6 BUSTS OF THE S60 SMJHL DRAFT

------------------------------------

Konstantin Selich @Tomen
Drafted 1st OV by Quebec City Citadelles

Buffalo GMs and their players being busts, name a more iconic duo. Either QCC panicked with this pick or Tomen has blackmail on Evok, as otherwise this pick makes no sense! Sitting at a lowly 31st in TPE standings for the Class, this was an obvious whiff.
At least BUF doesn't have to worry about being forced to use a pick on selecting him as they will probably be drafting late anyway. Also someone will probably trade them 2 firsts for Tomen's retired player. They can't keep getting away with this!

Ranking: F
Draft projected: Late 2nd rd

Tanner Fox @FuzzSHL
Drafted 4th Overall to Carolina

An obvious case of extortion here, Carolina had tons of better options, including picking him at 5th instead of 4th so this pick wouldn't look so bad, but like Trump and Putin, obviously there is something shady going on between Carolina and LAP management. What does he have on them? Threaten them with another 1st round exit? Kidnap the Kraken logo and turn it into just one tentacle and an eye? Where's the FBI on this??
LAP at least breathing a sigh of relief here as they don't have to waste a pick on him, but I think somehow they end up with 69th Overall and they take Fox with that pick, for the 'nice' comments.

Ranking: F
Draft projected: 69th Overall

Jannik Nordstern @KlusteR

Drafted 8th OV by Detroit
Traded to Newfoundland for pick 10

Wow how much of a locker room cancer is this guy that Detroit was sick of his shit within 1 pick of drafting him?? I can now why nobody traded for a 2K TPE goalie if that's what he brings to the table! Detroit obviously realized their error immediately and somehow conned Newfoundland into giving them a mulligan on this pick and letting them try again with the 10th. I can only assume Newfoundland GMs were drunk this day as it wasn't the last blunder they made in this Draft!
Minnesota will be forced to draft him in the second round, they will probably be trying to trade down so they don't reward him with too high of a selection.

Ranking: F
Draft Projected: Late second round

------------


Conner Tanner @Keygan
Drafted 15th OV by Vancouver Whalers

The Whalers trust in the VAN -> EDM pipeline obviously doesn't do so well in reverse. Obviously a pity pick here, knowing Keygan would probably trade away all his VAN prospects if he wasn't selected here. Or maybe, that was the deal, select Tanner and he will free all those propects and let them go to a better team? Either way, ouch!
Tanner will find himself drafted to the Blizzard automatically, but that's ok, they always seem to have one or two 600 TPE players on the roster, so they get that covered with this player for the foreseeable future!

Ranking: F
Draft Projected: 420th Overall

Archangelo Scaradog Jr @Citizen of Adraa
Drafted 16th OV by Newfoundland Berserkers

Wow, the follow up their failure in the first round by completely blowing it in the second, too! No wonder they have like 6 losses on the season already if this is how they operate! Can only feel sorry for a team that doesn't even know there's no such place as Adraa, lol.
Luckily for Manhattan Rage, they were able to trade away COA's retiring player to get a bit of a break from him, but sadly they will have to spend one of their second round picks just to get him back. They should be able to hide his awfulness amongst their 200 prospects next season.

Ranking: F
Draft Projected : 40th OV only because that's as low as he can possibly go

-----------

Grogu Mandosson @Kez
Drafted 18th OV by Carolina Kraken
Traded to Anaheim before he even left the green room

This is such an awful player that the rumor is Carolina only drafted him so GM 7 could have the pleasure of trading his bum ass away. "I will never play for Winnipeg, Kez, Fuck YOUUUUUUU!" is apparently the entire conversation they had between the selection and the trade. Well, Anaheim adds another Misfit Toy to the island here, he will fit right in with other notable busts like Sekai Wollker.
Winnipeg continues their woes by being forced to auto-draft him, but I suppose the one consolation is this is one prospect that might not leave in FA or demand a trade the second he gets any good.

Ranking: F
Draft Projected: Mr. Irrelevant

There you have it, folks, some of the most wretched scum and villains this Draft has to offer, clearly they bring the overall value of this Draft down considerably. We can only apologize to the real prospects and hope they don't get too tarnished by the presence of these foul creatures.

Good luck and have fun! See you at the Draft!
