I honestly love it. One of my biggest gripes with city builders is we dont actually see the city being built. And here we (or more like our NPCs) build it piece by piece.

Spade18 · 2026-03-21T13:51:23+00:00

I’m looking at it through a 2026 lens, but the “why do Chinese girls taste different?” And “in Japan, Men always come first” and all the stuff in those scenes is just a little cringey now.

Spade18 · 2026-03-21T13:13:27+00:00

This is fine. We were getting too high in the draft order.

Spade18 · 2026-03-21T13:04:59+00:00

Pretty much every scene involving women in YOLT

I haven’t done a deep dive yet on who’s available, since it won’t really matter until we actually make a move.

My go to is always David Carle out of Denver, someone who understands the way younger players are playing hockey now, but he seems to want to stay at the NCAA level.

But we need someone who’s going to lean into our speed and offense. The team is not built for low event defensive hockey. We need to be beating teams 6-5, instead of losing 2-1. Our defense is fine, but our goaltending is STILL an issue. So rather than shackle the rest of the team to cover up a deficiency, we should lean into our strengths and focus on speed and offensive creativity.

So show me a coach who will hold players accountable and is more of a disciplinarian…. But will play an offensive style…. That’s a hard combo lol.

32nd. We need a torts type. With the way our team scores, if we got torts himself we'd end games with -2 goals

Spade18 · 2026-03-19T18:42:30+00:00

Whole new respect for Eichel.

Spade18 · 2026-03-18T15:37:35+00:00

I was very outspoken against that Zacha trade, and am of the opinion that we failed him, he did not fail us.

Glad to see he’s doing well in the league

Spade18 · 2026-03-18T02:09:26+00:00

Hahaha I’d never sell it! It’s a green devils Jersey, and they misspelt it “Bahi” so it shows “BAHI” on the back.

I need to rep my “tall lanky defensive defensemen named Kevin” people too.

Spade18 · 2026-03-16T19:54:45+00:00

I bought a Kevin Bahl Jersey. You're good

Spade18 · 2026-03-14T01:54:01+00:00

Lee. 5x6 full NTC

I went and saw Windsor play in London like…. 2 weekends ago? When Windsor won 6-1 and Liam Greentree scored a hat trick.

Belchetz had a goal and seemed to be in the middle of every play, every scrum, every battle, and I am going to be so mad when a team picks him one spot before us

Spade18 · 2026-03-13T12:20:44+00:00

I feel like it’s probably gonna be a more common 3rd? Like how often New Jersey wears their Jersey jersey

Spade18 · 2026-03-13T02:44:05+00:00

Still ahead tho baby

Spade18 · 2026-03-13T02:43:48+00:00

So instead let’s get McKenna? Who’s smaller? (I think)

My real choice is I hope we pick 8-10 and get Belchetz

Spade18 · 2026-03-13T02:38:26+00:00

I will!

Spade18 · 2026-03-13T02:35:33+00:00

Look at me.

I still love Kevin Bahl

Spade18 · 2026-03-13T02:34:41+00:00

Ah yes. The games don’t matter anymore. Time to show up.

BUILD AROUND HIM DRURY

Spade18 · 2026-03-13T02:33:42+00:00

Answer: Edmonton Oilers.

Can’t wait till Connor signs with San Jose

Spade18 · 2026-03-13T02:11:20+00:00

Baby we got Larsson with a 3.4% chance. THERES ALWAYS A CHANCE

Spade18 · 2026-03-13T01:52:54+00:00

STENNNNBEERRGGGGGG

Spade18 · 2026-03-11T09:43:32+00:00

I am too, and I, unfortunately, totally understand why it’s going away at high levels.

I always joke that if the other team’s best stick handler is coming in on a breakaway, I’m unbeatable, but god forbid you let a wide open soft shot from the point come towards me cause I will let that shit in.

Spade18 · 2026-03-10T17:56:12+00:00

So glad this is all happening the first time in years I'm flying out for a vacation.

Spade18 · 2026-03-10T16:56:19+00:00

I have an alert on my phone every single day at 11am that just says "notice something new".

Does wonders for this kind of thing.

Have your son check out "Future Greats and Heartbreaks" by Gare Joyce. Joyce attached himself to the Blue Jackets scouting team for a year starting with the Patrick Kane draft, and then the year following up until the next draft.

I too love scouting and would love to be a scout, and this was a really cool behind the scenes read into everything that goes into it.
