Episode 2 - Daniel Weaver SHOULD be a Malmo Nighthawks

[ThePerfectNut 563]

After learning that non-GM draftees have every right to dictate where they do or do not want to go in the draft and that I can't be filed with tampering. I decided to do this once more for some quick TPE yet again!

 

So why should Daniel Weaver become a Malmo Nighthawks?

 

One of the reasons is that contrary to the Seattle Bears, they have 3 first-round picks in the upcoming victory hockey league draft! Meaning the odds of Weaver playing for this franchise would become way higher. Malmo's own first-round pick will become a lottery pick since they are one of the worst this season.

 

Not only that, but the other teams do not seem suitable places for a player like Daniel Weaver in this draft.

Why?

 

Prague does not have a goalie so picking Matt Murdock, the top-earner of our class is the only suitable option for them. Except if they already have some deal behind closed doors with a top free agency goalie next season? There are also a couple of more talented goalies in the draft so maybe they go for a top forward in the class and hope they can pick up a goalie later on, but I would pick Matt Murdock if I were them.

 

Vancouver's defense looks a bit bad, so focusing on Phil Strasmore would make sense for them...right? He would already become their 2nd best d-men on the team and Phil himself has expressed that he does not want to play in the VHLE in the upcoming season. It's a win-win for both parties no matter what.

 

There's a chance that the Los Angeles Stars could pick Daniel Weaver as a surprise, but my bets are that they select Henry Eagles since there's a lot of history behind the user of the player. They have all known each other for a long time and I would be shocked if they choose me over him. He will most likely have a good career because he is just that guy you know.

 

What about the London United? 

 

Yeah no shot that the current General Manager is picking me up. If by some miracle he does, my ass will be in every trade package that he will be offering.

 

New York Americans?

 

Look, I don't have anything against the players on that team. The franchise is simply NOT the place to go. I wonder when will be the day they finally rebrand to a whole other team. They did produce some HOFs players, but most of them left that team when they had the chance. I mean come on, the last time they won a Continental Cup was in season 53!!!! That's damn 32 seasons ago!!!!

 

Now there is Malmo. 

 

What if I slip down in the draft again?

 

Listen I was the top earner coming into the draft once but got drafted 11th overall regardless. I'm hoping this will happen once again.

 

I would draft John Jameson with their lottery pick and he will become the robin of Igor Molotov for many years to come then they can select Daniel Weaver with either of their other 1st rounds picks. (Praying that DCD AND Davos choke now, which one of them always does)

That would be the dream draft for them to kick after losing their franchise player Druss Deathwalker.

 

I would also pick a player like Tater Tottingham or Isamu Knievel (He's so active in the locker room and brings a lot of energy, totally recommended for the upcoming draft) in the draft with their other first-round picks.

 

The question is why should Malmo go to all this trouble to select Daniel Weaver?

 

My answer to that is...

 

They will get a top earner for his first 3 seasons, trying to help the team make a playoff push. Anything can happen in the playoff so that's the goal. They lost a lot of their forward core depth and it's going to be hard to attract top since Igor Molotov is the only notable player on the team. Molotov is a playmaker, but he produces struggles points since he doesn't have a pure goal scorer by his side. Daniel Weaver can possibly become that pure goal scorer for him and it will enable him to finally have a break-out season.

 

Malmo also is lacking a lot of picks in the upcoming 2 seasons, so drafting talents will be CRUCIAL for them in the upcoming draft!

 

Malmo also will have to think about getting a talented goalie, they currently have a good duo, but they will fall off eventually.

 

The d-core is also very questionable so maybe malmo should start trading their assets and turn them into possible future top 4 d-men in the future.

 

If Malmo can play their cards right and grow a team up in a season. They can attract a couple of good forwards in the next free agency.

 

The Malmo NIghthawks also have a General Manager and an assistant that I haven't heard about, so they could build good chemistry from the start. That team hasn't won any notable awards for a while so re-tooling should be the next step for them.

 

Anyways, Daniel Weaver's dream is to wear the Seattle Bears jersey and win a Continental Cup for the franchise and possibly build a dynasty, but if he were to get drafted and play for the Malmo NIghthawks. He would be content and he will see how the team goes for at least 3 seasons and make a decision when the times comes for it.

 

I just realized that I'm only short of around 60 words for 1000 TPE. Damn, the time really flew by by writing this all up. 

 

Yes, you guessed it.

 

I'm trying ramp up the word counts right now!

 

Do you get a problem with it? Too bad, can't do anything to stop me from writing right now.

 

Okay this is weird, enough talking with myself. I'm at 1000 TPE now anyways.

 

To conclude, don't take this as tampering! It is not meant to be taken seriously, or is it?
