DAY 25 SELECTIONS
112ND OVERALL - The Montreal Canadiens select overager Dakota Mermis from the London Knights of the Ontario Hockey League
HW WIMinnesotaWildFan's take:
He is steady with his defense, but he isn’t anything spectacular. Despite this, no one noticed any gaffes while he played, and is also starting to develop some offensive skills.
113RD OVERALL - The St Louis Blues select defenseman Maxime Gravel from Rimouski of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League
GM mightymike D:
Could there be a name more in keeping with the St Louis Blues ethos than "Max Gravel"?
Unless there’s a prospect out there called "Testosterone O’Dumbpenalty", I doubt it.
Gravel is what Roman Polak brings when he sucker-punches a player half his size. Gravel is what David Backes brings when he skates half a mile out of position to try to goad his opposite number into a fight. Gravel makes up most of the contents of Barret Jackman’s skull. Gravel has been used to correct a list in the dumpster that Ryan Reaves lives in, so that drool now comes out both sides of his mouth again. Gravel is what we’ve recently added to Ken’s diet , as we fear that 50 Kilos a day of Toasted Ravioli doesn’t provide enough roughage. A constipated Ken is no fun to be around. The Greenpeace pickets really get in the way, too.So, welcome, Max Gravel. We’d like to wish you lots of success in your career, but that’s not the St Louis Way.
