jacobcarson877 2,520 Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 (edited) 1 HC Davos Dynamo Antonia Bucatini @CowboyinAmerica C TPE: 394 Season GP G A P (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB S92 Regular Season 72 38 43 81 -18 374 40 119 55 S92 Playoffs 12 1 7 8 4 23 4 20 2 After finally breaking their longstanding championship drought in Season 89 and just a season after back-to-back Victory Cups in Seasons 90 and 91, the HC Davos Dynamo now find themselves in the midst of a full rebuild after dealing stud goalie Lachlan Summers to Warsaw. Fortunately for them, they won the draft lottery, and cash in with Antonia Bucatini, a center universally regarded as the top prospect in this class. Bucatini comes from an agency renowned for success, and sure enough, has already shown those flashes of greatness in the VHLM. With coolness and poise rarely seen from young players, the gifted center is arguably already a VHL-ready player, but with the state of the Dynamo, there's no real reason to come up in Season 93. Davos gets the perfect start to their rebuild with an elite center in Bucatini that they can build around. 2 Seattle Bears Gianfranco Del Rocco @Victor LW TPE: 367 Season GP G A P (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB S92 Regular Season 72 31 33 64 9 317 69 141 47 S92 Playoffs 6 5 1 6 0 29 8 9 1 First of all, I need to begin with the fact that I don't believe that Seattle will hold on to this pick. Their prospect pool is utterly barren, especially at defense, and even with a great young goalie in Georgiy Costanzov, the Bears are likely going to struggle again in Season 93. While I don't think Seattle would be terribly upset with an elite prospect like Gianfranco Del Rocco, the clear-cut best prospect in the draft after Bucatini, I do believe they would prefer to move back a little and go for a defenseman instead. However, should they remain here at second overall, Del Rocco has to be the selection. A strong winger built to score goals, this is exactly the caliber of player you want to get with a top pick like this, and would be yet another dangerous young forward for the Bears. Regardless of who owns this pick, I don't see it being used for anyone else. 3 Riga Reign Lucy Leitner @LucyXpher D TPE: 269 Season GP G A P (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB S92 Regular Season 72 16 60 76 7 199 76 157 94 S92 Playoffs 12 1 9 10 4 32 16 26 22 A first generation blue liner taking the league by storm, Lucy Leitner would be a phenomenal addition to a young Riga team on the verge of becoming a serious contender in the European Conference. Despite her small size, Leitner is a gifted skater capable of moving and protecting the puck and demonstrates a remarkable talent for positioning in both the offensive and defensive zones. All Riga really needs is a fourth defenseman and further development from their young core and they will be ready to be a major player for not just the European Conference title, but the Continental Cup itself. Leitner's rapid development could see her potentially called up to be the fourth defenseman this season, especially if Riga is crunched against the cap, but worst case scenario she will be primed to have a big rookie season in Season 94. This is a no-brainer of a pick here. 4 Vancouver Wolves Annie Oaks @Noodle Enjoyer RW TPE: 260 Season GP G A P (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB S92 Regular Season 72 41 54 95 2 354 26 124 46 S92 Playoffs 14 5 5 10 -3 76 10 15 1 At fourth overall, we have another first generation play in Annie Oaks going off the board to a Vancouver Wolves team that are reaching the end stages of their rebuild. True to her namesake, Oaks is a sharpshooter, possessing the deadliest shot in the draft class, producing nearly as many goals as the top prospects in the VHLM with far less shot volume. While she isn't as defensively sound as other top prospects, further development in the VHLE will certainly iron that out, along with the amount of penalties for a player with a decidedly non-physical build. Vancouver, however, is an excellent landing spot for Oaks, as she will be afforded the time to develop and then join a talented forwarded core including Left Alone, Logan Ninefingers, Riley Martin, and more. The first-gen sniper stands to be another phenomenal pick for a Vancouver team that has been killing it at the draft lately, and that success continues with Oaks. 5 Chicago Phoenix Forum Content @frescoelmo LW TPE: 261 Season GP G A P (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB S92 Regular Season 72 41 64 105 11 314 36 130 19 S92 Playoffs 11 3 2 5 3 25 8 12 1 Chicago has a lot of pieces in place already here after a couple of good drafts in seasons past. They are looking here for some top end offensive talent however with their goaltending and defense rather settled. They've had a couple pieces falter in their forward group, and will need someone reliable, with a good history of making strong players, and who isn't afraid to make some exciting forum content. Forum Content fills all the boxes here and Chicago should be thrilled to see a player like this fall into their lap. 6 HC Davos Dynamo UghSike @UghSike LW TPE: 250 Season GP G A P (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB S92 Regular Season 72 28 32 60 -15 203 18 93 14 S92 Playoffs 11 3 5 8 4 33 14 19 0 Davos gets an early crack at their second pick of the night here and have the option of many great players. They land on UghSike here, an exciting first gen who has really been the epitome of consistency and potential. They lock down what should be a slam dunk Hall of Famer given the user's history with their first pick, and should have the opportunity to secure a dangerous duo for a long time with UghSike at 6. A really strong earning history and a strong build gives UghSike the confidence in such a high pick, and is a well deserved selection. 7 Malmo Nighthawks Jean-Pierre Devote @eagle_3450 LW TPE: 293 Season GP G A P (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB S92 Regular Season 72 52 54 16 15 361 54 139 58 S92 Playoffs 6 0 2 2 -4 30 4 12 4 After a blistering start, Devote seemed to be the consensus #3 pick of the draft. But it seems as though that early push has done some damage as there have been some concerns at the lack of progression being made in the last few weeks. You really want to see a player making their biggest jump leading into the draft, but at 7, Malmo takes the chance here on a user they're familiar with, and have seen some success with before. They'll have had to have been settled after scouting that development will continue at a top-10 pick rate. This could be a real steal, or a major fumble, but for a team as established as Malmo, you have to think they'd be willing to take that chance on a player who has been so dynamic in recent past. 8 Prague Phantoms Jorgen Lovstrom @Pifferfish G TPE: 241 Season GP W L OTL SV% GAA SO GA SA S92 Regular Season 62 48 8 4 0.918 2.34 3 144 1761 S92 Playoffs 16 12 4 0 0.92 2.13 1 34 427 Jorgen Lovstrom refuses to lose. And for a team that is looking to start fresh under a new management group, that's the sort of mentality they'll look to bring to the next era of Phantoms hockey. Lovstrom stood head and shoulders above the VHLM in the regular season, and looked no different when it mattered in the playoffs. Championship experience, established user with a strong earning history, and a real brain for the optimization of the game. Prague closes up shop and thanks everyone, wishing them all a fine day with this pick, and turn their minds to securing their next position. The VHLE is a tough beast for goaltenders, but if Lovstrom can take their game to that next level, there should be no worries about the VHL and beyond. 9 Moscow Menace Benjamin Abenduct @Schnee D TPE: 252 Season GP G A P (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB S92 Regular Season 68 23 58 81 13 211 78 170 100 S92 Playoffs 12 2 13 15 2 39 10 19 22 After surprising the league with a stunning run to 3rd place within the EU Conference, Moscow looks ready to begin competiting with their young squad. Finding themselves with both the 9th and 10th overall picks in the first round, Moscow can help solidify their young core with additional pieces. They'll look to select a defenseman to eventually make their way up on the blueline with Leif Reingaard and Obuz Schneider Canet du Bocage. Enter Benjamin Abenduct, who just had an 81 point season in the VHLM with Houston. He already boasts an elite level of point production along with great physical play, registering 170 hits and 100 shots blocked. Given that level of performance, this would be an easy selection for Moscow in the first round. 10 Moscow Menace Nathan Ecker @Nathan_8 RW TPE: 222 Season GP G A P (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB S92 Regular Season 72 25 23 48 13 217 56 115 9 S92 Playoffs 12 5 3 8 2 42 4 20 1 Moscown continues with another selection immediately following the 9th overall pick. After going with a defenseman just before, they'll look to select a forward with this pick. While their lines are for the most part solidified, there are a few current players who may begin to decline by the time this draft selection is ready to enter the VHL. Taking that into account, Moscow selects Nathan Ecker here. A first generation VHLM player, Ecker played alongside Abenduct in Houston and will have a familiar face to play alongside once he's ready to join Moscow. He's already working hard and making a name for himself, and should benefit from joining an elite organization like Moscow. 11 New York Americans Chris Reynolds Jr @Crstats23 LW TPE: 233 Season GP G A P (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB S92 Regular Season 72 29 40 69 29 244 26 122 31 S92 Playoffs 12 8 5 13 1 45 10 19 2 The New York Americans select next after trading down with Malmo to acquire Jebediah Big Ol Dinks in Amish, securing a valuable piece on the blue line in this deal. With a strong roster primed to compete, the Americans will select the best prospect they can to add to their prospect pool. It will be an easy choice with Chris Reynolds Jr still on the board. Having played for both Ottawa and Houston in the VHLM, Chris Reynolds Jr is developing at a consistent pace that will make him a valuable piece with supporting the forward group once the current players begin to age. With time, Chris Reynolds Jr will make his name known in New York. 12 HC Davos Dynamo Ondrej Vencko @Mutti G TPE: 215 Season GP W L OTL SV% GAA SO GA SA S92 Regular Season 50 27 18 3 0.892 2.94 1 138 1272 S92 Playoffs 12 6 5 1 0.917 2.52 1 31 374 With the trade that sent Lachlan Summers out of Davos, the rebuild is on! After selecting a generational center, HC Davos will look to replace their star goaltender. While a first generational VHLM player, Ondrej Vencko made his name known especially well in the VHLM playoffs with Houston. There they registered a 0.917 save percentage with a 2.52 goals against average. For a new player, this is the sign of a blossoming career. The future is very bright with Ondrej Vencko and will be even brighter when they are selected by HC Davos. 13 Toronto Legion Gul Dukat @MSouthworth D TPE: 247 Season GP G A P (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB S92 Regular Season 72 18 47 65 -9 198 72 163 123 S92 Playoffs 11 1 3 4 -4 24 16 40 18 Toronto is in the middle of their competetive window right now, and with only so many seasons left it makes sense that they draft a player that will be in the VHL sooner rather than later. Selecting Dukat gives Toronto exactly what they need as with one more season of development they will be ready to make the jump to the VHL and make an impact. Dukat projects as a top 2 defensemen with a great offensive upside. Coming off a great season in the VHLM where Dukat put up 65 points and almost 20 goals in 72 games played, Dukat is ready for the next level and it will be very exciting to see what this young defensemen brings in the future. 14 Helsinki Titans Miner vHLer @Rhynex Entertainment LW TPE: 236 Season GP G A P (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB S92 Regular Season 72 5 7 12 1 49 16 49 6 S92 Playoffs 12 0 0 0 -1 3 0 1 0 True leaders are hard to come by, and while Miner vHLer, doesn't have the most conventional build, it may pay off massively. While vHLer, does come with some offensive risk as they only put up 12 points in a total of 84 games this past season, this is the type of gamble that Helsinki could be looking to take. With their current position this pick would make perfect sense, if vHLer os still available at this pick, it could absolutely be the perfect choice for Helsinki. 15 Riga Reign Walter Jinn @Adrest245 C TPE: 168 Season GP G A P (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB S92 Regular Season 72 34 46 80 32 335 38 133 21 S92 Playoffs 16 10 8 18 6 69 21 33 6 Led off by their 3rd overall pick, there is a new generation of player in Riga, their next two picks will round out their future core for many season to come. Riga really can't go wrong here with drafting Walter Jinn. Jinn has a very high ceiling, and could prove everyone wrong in short order here. They are coming off of a phenominal season in the VHLM, and will be looking to build off of it this coming season in the VHLM before making the leap to the VHLE or VHL. Jinn could very well prove to be a great pick for Riga here, their agency has developed great players for Riga previously, and don't be suprised if it happens again. 16 Riga Reign Vanuza Kolesinska @chikn C TPE: 222 Season GP G A P (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB S92 Regular Season 72 31 48 79 7 290 50 149 23 S92 Playoffs 11 2 4 6 1 43 12 22 7 Riga is in a great spot with back-to-back picks to end the 1st round, it makes sense for them to take 1 pick safe and draft a player from an agency who has built a reputation of consistency and developing solid forwards who seem to contribute to team success everywhere they go. Kolesinska is coming off of a great season in the VHLM where they had over 30 goals and were 7 points over a point per game. Riga is set to hit this first round completely out of the park. 2ND ROUND 17 Seattle Bears WWumbo @Fire Tortorella D TPE: 207 Season GP G A P (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB S92 Regular Season 72 14 50 64 -17 139 112 206 144 S92 Playoffs 6 0 3 3 2 8 10 12 11 18 Prague Phantoms Yermolai Nabokov @fonziGG RW TPE: 225 Season GP G A P (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB S92 Regular Season 72 46 57 103 29 380 49 115 28 S92 Playoffs 16 9 13 22 7 111 24 42 7 19 Moscow Menace Tyler Lawson @Nyx C TPE: 184 Season GP G A P (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB S92 Regular Season 56 20 36 56 26 139 28 84 8 S92 Playoffs 12 2 3 5 2 26 8 13 0 20 Chicago Phoenix Ray Stanton @horoscope D TPE: 176 Season GP G A P (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB S92 Regular Season 38 10 22 32 -10 71 50 101 54 S92 Playoffs 6 0 1 1 4 6 8 10 4 21 HC Davos Dynamo Cody Toland @ctoland102 D TPE: 169 Season GP G A P (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB S92 Regular Season 72 8 27 35 14 91 126 213 92 S92 Playoffs 12 0 1 1 -2 4 20 27 11 22 Los Angeles Stars Oliver Loo @Peiffy RW TPE:166 Season GP G A P (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB S92 Regular Season 48 6 4 10 -1 42 16 40 5 S92 Playoffs 11 1 2 3 1 18 4 14 3 23 Calgary Wranglers Billy Joel @The goat of hockey D TPE:158 Season GP G A P (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB S92 Regular Season 72 6 14 20 25 68 106 205 84 S92 Playoffs 6 2 0 2 -3 5 0 13 4 24 Prague Phantoms French Fries @solyom C TPE: 160 Season GP G A P (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB S92 Regular Season 72 16 35 51 22 146 30 98 11 S92 Playoffs 7 3 1 4 0 12 4 9 1 25 Warsaw Predators Aleksanteri Kaskiniemi-Kekkonen @Snussu G TPE: 221 Season GP W L OTL SV% GAA SO GA SA S92 Regular Season 67 39 24 4 0.905 2.62 1 177 1870 S92 Playoffs 7 3 3 1 0.904 2.69 0 19 197 26 Los Angeles Stars Anthony Simmons II @Starchychaff RW TPE: 138 Season GP G A P (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB S92 Regular Season 38 18 20 38 1 132 38 54 9 27 Calgary Wranglers Steve French @Seabass RW TPE: 194 Season GP G A P (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB S92 Regular Season 72 43 46 89 10 338 42 90 40 S92 Playoffs 6 2 1 3 -3 28 4 4 4 28 Prague Phantoms Taylor Swift @lilchrist C TPE: 168 Season GP G A P (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB S92 Regular Season 70 34 51 85 17 272 49 113 24 S92 Playoffs 16 7 9 16 6 64 21 29 4 29 Seattle Bears Chuck E Cheese @a_Ferk D TPE: 196 Season GP G A P (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB S92 Regular Season 72 25 45 70 -9 200 78 139 159 S92 Playoffs 7 3 4 7 -4 22 4 11 11 30 Helsinki Titans Filip Zinek @FiZi LW TPE: 149 Season GP G A P (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB S92 Regular Season 72 21 27 48 4 151 18 112 12 S92 Playoffs 12 2 4 6 4 29 9 14 2 31 HC Davos Dynamo Jack Dickins @Mystery_boy98 RW TPE: 152 Season GP G A P (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB S92 Regular Season 64 10 10 20 -7 97 28 54 7 S92 Playoffs 12 0 2 2 -5 29 4 5 0 32 Calgary Wranglers Herald Benson @Benson G TPE: 181 Season GP W L OTL SV% GAA SO GA SA S92 Regular Season 29 13 10 1 0.892 3.3 1 84 781 Edited March 9 by jacobcarson877 Frank, Patrik Tallinder, MSouthworth and 11 others 6 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
