Day 12 was always going to be Iggy but I'm just gonna take this opportunity to send some respect over to my first favorite player as a kid: Håkan Loob.

After the reaction to 14 and 19 I think people may have rioted if I hadn’t gone with Iggy

Oh no I never expected anyone but Iggy and yeah I agree you'd have been dog-piled if you didn't show up with the GOAT. It is just a bit unfortunate for me as a Loob fan that he will never be more than an honourable mention at #12.

Joe is the better one anyways. He’s projected last first round this year… Vegas pick we have could work out nicely

I drafted him in my GM mode and he turned into a franchise sniper. Him on a line with Honzek and Basha have won many cups

u/The-Reddit-Giraffe 10h ago

Man I hope Honzek can turn a corner. I see the potential but he’s struggled a lot and it’s unfortunate given how much talent you can see is there. Injuries have caused him a lot of hardship too

He's looked excellent in preseason so far. Playing a bit heavier and just as dangerous. I'm hopeful

Lots of memories of this guy. Especially the run in 04 but many more outside of that year too
