GM VideoJ's Draft Insight

2024-06-19

Need some help drafting this year? Worried about who to pick? GM VideoJ tells all in his highly researched pre-draft picks for greatness. Full 37 page guide is available for purchase for $9.99. E-Transfers, Cash, Cheque or Money Order all accepted as payment. And without further adieu, here ia a list of the top ten targets for the Anaheim Ducks at this year’s draft.

#10 Tij Iginla.

Tij Iginla is the son of former NHL legend Jarome Iginla. GM VideoJ believes in the strong correlation between bloodlines and success in the NHL. Not only was Jarome a dynamic player for years, he was also a member of the Boston Bruins, GM VideoJ’s favourite team.

#9 Cole Eiserman

Dude’s name sounds like Yzerman. Can’t be beat. It also reminds me of chess for some reason...

#8 Henry Mews

What could be more intimidating than a 6 foot defender with a last name that the sound of a kitty cat makes? 

#7 Leon Muggli

Possibly the ugliest last name in the draft, but with a first name like Leon, he shares the potential to be a king on the ice, like Draisaitl. Also, Leon should be a good shooter if he is anything like the guy in Resident Evil.

#6 John Mustard

Not just the worst condiment in the fridge anymore! John Mustard is a 6 foot forward that you can just picture streaking up the ice. And when you hear the announcer shout out “Here comes Mustard!”, you’ll be reaching for your hot-dogs and hamburgers. In all honesty though, he should be drafted by the Nashville Predators, just to have his name on that ugly coloured jersey. Good Luck Robby!

#5 Eliot L’Italien

What could be better than a Quebecois player with a name that means “The Italian” in French. He’s got the rudeness of the French and the loudness of Italians, if nothing else, he will be a coveted locker room presence. 

#4 Christian Humphreys

This last name just gets me everytime. Plus I heard he is a speedy little fucker.

#3 Maxim Masse

Maxim is short for maximum. It was also a magazine I enjoyed quite thoroughly throughout my teens, and twenties, and well, still today. I’m sure this dude has some cannons on him.

#2  Artyom Shchuchinov

Shchuchinov has a hilarious name. But he is a skilled forward coming out of the KHL. I’m not sure how to pronounce his name, I assume it’s similar to Shushing someone. It does look like someone was playing darts with a Ouija board him he was born, in order to choose his name. It was so difficult to spell, I had to copy and paste it, as seen by the hyperlink.

#1 Carter Yakemchuk

First of all, I love the name Carter. Maybe because Nick was always my 2nd favourite Backstreet Boy. But this last name sounds like the noise I make after having too much of the captain's rum. That makes it intimidating in its own right.

Bonus leaked information: Josh Fluker. We want no potential of any flukes in our organization. We advise you to steer clear of him at all costs.
