Fourth rounds all coming up as we continue  the Tim Horton’s NHL Allstar player draft welcome back to Scotia Bank Arena the best and  brightest stars in the National Hockey League   congregating here in Toronto for the next three  days and one of those Stars a third time Allstar  

Mitch Marner now Mitch we saw William neander  your teammate go to your boys you got to keep   the band together right you got to be on this  team ah we’ll see are you going to lobby for  

Connor not to take you with the next pick then  it’s well they’re drafted I don’t know whatever   they want to do whatever they want their team  we’ll see all right well we’ve got one round in   the books it looks like you’re pretty open to  all the options available best of luck looking  

Forward as we start round two of the draft back  to you John yeah it is interesting McDavid or   McKinnon could try to keep some of that Synergy  away because they’re playing you they’re playing   to win on Saturday uh so maybe there’s some even  some deals before the show we don’t know all right  

Connor you went goalie the first time around  controversial pick everyone’s talking about it   on social media what about your next pick we know  what we’re going to do I think they know you had   a commercial break right yeah I’m going let you  guys make the call but go ahead uh we think that  

We need a little bit of goal scoring so we got  David P oh yeah carbo loading with pasta good call these three on the ice at the same  time Le DAV having another MVP type season   in Boston this year despite his fellow Legends  retiring after last year so C her McDavid off  

To a great start all right Tate McCrae announce  your next pick with kale and Nate uh pick we’re   going to take it back home to Denver Colorado  and Alexander yeah you need a goalie why not   go with one that kale communicates with on a  nightly basis Alex gorv joins team mck they  

Take one of their two go we have eight goalies  here tonight to be chosen two gone so far six   to go and team Matthews is on the board  and Justin I want to know how much input   are you having with the picks tonight you  said what how much how much input are you  

Having with these picks I mean I’m trusting  these guys definitely trusting these guys   your buddy’s still on the board here I think  I might know where this pick’s going or maybe   they’re going to go off the board uh Morgan uh  Austin look that way let him know who you’re

Taking let’s do it get over here and there  it is aaf reunion on baby Mitchner joining   his neander Riley and Matthew goodness and there  it is that’s a lot of Toronto round two Mitchner   and now it’s four map Leafs on team Matthews and  that means team Hughes is on the board not for  

One but for two picks it’s a lot of Liberation  here brothers are crying they get two picks In A Row D all right firstly we got to figure this  out I got to know this the first pick doesn’t   matter the second are you playing D  or Center like I always want you to

Play who stand we proudly select from My  Hometown Bank P Demco there it is goalie   taken by team Hughes and nice to get the kuu  players together the kucks with six players   and a head coach the most representation we’ve  seen at an NHL allstar game mat dco joins the

Team yeah who’s the fastest you guys are  on the board once again for a second pick   all right our uh third pick we’re  going to go from the Winnipeg Jets   Kyle Connor wow sneaky goal scorer  Kyle Conor conck and jets getting together man how you

Doing yes sir good to meet you too First  Time allar Jake AER joining team Matthews   all right team McKinnon is your call of  course uh Nate you’re were a Tim bit kid   right yep what’s your favorite Tim Horton’s  donut do you have one probably the Boston  

Cream let’s go that’s got to count right  number one overall donut all right you’re   building a strong team who’s the next  selection uh I see a lot of them uh in   our division so got to go with Carill  capriel oh Carill come on up what’s up

Buddy hi nice meet you so  carof of the Minnesota Wild joinin so team McDavid once again has two picks  pretty good position to be in Connor obviously   went goalie first man you get pasta that’s a  good value pick right there um what where you  

Going next you have two picks in a row yeah um  I think we need uh a defenseman there’s there’s   only a handful of them here right we’re going  to go with Ros Miss do oh filthy Nobody Breaks  

Ankles like Rasmus D at the Blue Line this guy  is like a young Allen Iverson he is filthy he’ll   join a strong offensive jugernaut right now you  might want to find a two-way player here any any  

Two-way players here okay what’s that one more  pick it right away it out I don’t know this we   have not discussed so this is happening on  the fly yeah what do you think will put on   your analysis here’s my rule when it comes  to picking team hockey teams don’t ask the  

Actor you know what I mean there um that’s  I think John Candy made a few picks for the   K boys what do you think kind of caught us off  guard um what do you think goalie turn your mic  

Off first you really can’t lose they’re they’re  all really good okay uh we will pick uh Robbie Thomas there we go Robert Thomas there  we go met the lead singer of Matchbox   20 for a second was he here Robert  Thomas excellent offensive player

What so team McDavid continues to get Sol  he bu shaped up all right good call back   to McKinnon okay all right Tate how much  info do you have in all this pardon how   much input pick your favorite player you  know yeah I’m looking at the names uh I  

Kind of trusting the guys on this one um  Sebastian AO I think that’s a pretty good   one he can do it all he can score he can take  a face off he’ll block a shot if he has to so   Sebastian AO with the Carolina hurricane  the latest selection from Nathan McKinnon

Squad all right so it’s Austin Matthews Justin  Bieber and Morgan Riley about to make a pick   you got your goal tender last round you’re going  back to a goalie you’re finding a forward what’s   the plan uh I don’t know I think uh we’re to  go with a forward from the Arizona Coyotes  

Clayton Keller oh yeah Arizona reunion you  know him so well you know his game I got my guy Arizona golf buddies good to me too yeah you  guys go how far back do you guys go uh junior so  

Yeah 16 17 how cool is it that we’re seeing  the growth of the sport you’re in but really   Across America got to do you got to do a right  you love to see it and you know nontraditional   hockey markets and uh places like that it’s  good to see more more kids playing hockey  

Picking up a stick and and just enjoying it so  well that’s good and Morgan how much influence   are you having on these PS do you think Brock  will be yeah it’s been fun um I think the picks  

Have been good so we got some work to do but I  think we’re in a good spot all right so there’s   team Matthews they get Clayton K and now we’re  over to team Hughes he’ll be okay been all over  

The board not sure what to predict here team  Hughes we need another 10 minutes that’s all   Michael what’s the issue is there is there  issues guys AR yeah the issue is many good   hockey players we have literally the greatest  players on the planet and there isn’t a bad  

Pick and so it’s impossible to know which of  the greatest hockey players on our planet to   pick and I’m eating into our 30 seconds so  what’s up boys where are we doing all right   you want to go first cap we’re taking uh let’s do  this all right from the Ottawa Senators Brady to

Chuck and look at this Brady K  Shu what a great pick the captain Senator maybe a bit of a surprise there’s still  some Vancouver K waiting to be drafted but team   H they found their man in Brady kachuck let’s  recap now go through teams one through four all  

Right so team used the tail of the tape they  picked Nikita CRA on first overall they add   a star golender Demco then Kyle Connor and Brady  kachuck as they round out their first picks team   Austin Matthews they select William naner in  Mitch Marner as they keep the band together and  

Then Jake Ginger the goalie from the dollar  stars and Clayton K A Reunion of sorts from   Arizona and the Eminem boys McKinnon and Mar and  McCrae Sydney Crosby what a great selection for   them they get their teammate goalie early and  then Capri off and AO to round out them and  

Team McDavid they took the first goalie they get  pasta a defenseman and Rasmus Dalene and Robert   Thomas could do it all in the offensive end as  well so all 14 off to a good start David speed  

Rounds are coming up so keep it locked here it’s  the Tim Horton NHL Allstar player draft welcome   back to the Tim Hortons Allstar player draft as  we continue on here a goalie has been taken by   each organization so far three three of them  American Born just like Jeremy swam so Jeremy  

You’re sitting here these four teams all need  one more goalie uh how nervous are you I see a   little sweat on the brow yeah uh I saw the two  names I was sitting between and I knew pretty  

Quick I was going to be cast on an island so I’ll  work hard for you guys and hopefully uh we get   some good luck coming our way you anticipated  being here by yourself once you were with your  

Fellow guys I did I knew that pretty quick how  does a goalie prepare for an All-Star game like   this three on three you guys have the most  pressure on it uh what can you bring to one   of these organizations I think uh I’m really  glad that it’s not counting towards my actual  

Stats but I’m going to do my job and hopefully  um help our team get a chance to win all right   we’ll see if maybe your American Brothers the  Hughes will select you for their second goalie   David what are they going to do there has been  an American theme with Team Hughes their last  

Three picks have been Americans and some of the  national five cans matter they’re debating it now   and then we can try to trade for MSY after there  all right make your P yeah yeah go go ahead man  

All right from the New Jersey Devils Jer brat  and and there you go the man who is replacing   Jack Hughes at the allstar game Devil’s  brothers and now Allstar Brothers as well up R all right so team Hughes is made a selection  you’re going to need a goalie I believe in your  

Next selection team Hughes and and we’re back  to team Matthews okay we want to hear you guys   deliberate what your next pick’s going to  be but I do have a question you see yes   for hair you guys play with obviously William  neander rock besser’s out there who’s got the  

Best hair in the league oh it’d be a close  tie between those two I think I don’t know   maybe Willie though Mor what do you think  Willie always Willie all right so let’s uh   here you guys still need a goalie you have  a few picks to make uh you Justin Morgan but  

When you talk it through yeah I think we’re  going to wait on the goalie right we already   talked it through I think we know who won from  the New York Islanders Matthew barzel oh he’s   filthy like that that’s aity Matthew barzel he’s  going for the MVP award his third All-Star Game  

Fastest skater back in 2020 brother and it’s a  British columia homecoming right and there it is   Matthew barcel well that was going on I I saw a  couple of Hughes Brothers pop over here and got   in Nathan McKinnon’s ear I don’t know if Elliot  Freedman is already tweeted this out but was a  

Trade offered you or something Nathan what was  going on just a mutual understanding he did me   a favor earlier in the draft so he wants me to  pay it back to him but Tate’s going to make our  

Next pick here so okay so T did they influence  this pick or this is the pick you’re going to   make yeah um they’re saying we need to add some  grit so we’re going to go with Tom Wilson perfect  

Nice we need somebody who’s going to fight  Brady kachuck Tom Wilson we did size on the squad so Tom Wilson goes to team McKinnon all right team McDavid talk it through  will what do we need what are the deficiencies  

What’s going to bring this a championship on  Saturday we’re playing to win we uh we’ve given   this a lot of thought we we’ve applied all of  our brain power to it okay and we thought you  

Seem disorganized last time I got to admit  but you see how hard it is for me to think F   every oce energy uh from Florida Sam Reinhardt  just having a monster monster season why would   you take a guy on a heater when you think of  hot NHL Commodities just Edmonton they’ve won  

16 in a row and you think Sam Reinhardt Sam  grab your jersey right behind you now that’s   a quality pick okay so everyone has to pick a  goalie now right because we’re down the part of  

The draft where you guys have to pick the four  remaining goalies and so you pick the first one   um what’s up next for team McDavid yeah we got  to go another goalie um I think we’re going to   grab Sam’s teammate from Florida Sam bosski  or uh Sergey barosi [Music] Serge they go

Thaty so Sergey bosi joining team McDavid so team McDavid their current roster  as you see David dry pel early then they had   pasta Dalene robbert Thomas and Sam Reinhardt  couple of righties and then Sergey bosi in net  

So now we’re on to team McKinnon again you have  three goalies to choose from kale Mar you know   goalies which one you going to choose it’s tough  they’re all good yeah we’ve been told we got to  

Pick a goalie so um this guy’s been all right  this year we’re go with Jeremy Swan not bad   Jeremy come on over University of main product  Mike RoR Award winner welcome to the squad bro   y nice to meet you good stuff couple Hockey East  College hockey players kale Mar and Jeremy San  

All right over to you David so well let’s go  through team McKinnon Squad first again m the   car that’s always a good start they get Crosby  with their first pick gorg of inet capriso AO   Wilson San all right team Matthews who’s your  attendee all right so we need a second goenda  

You have two options what do you have uh  we’re going to go with from the New York   Rangers eigor shurin ano with a winner joins team  Matthews and rounds up their go how you doing What’s so for team Matthews alongside Morgan Riley  they kept it in house with William naner and Mitch   Harner early on then they found a goalie in Jake  AER Clayton Peller and Matthew barzel with some   Junior ties to these guys and then eigor shurin  the vno winner a few years ago joins team Matthews  

Which firmly puts team Hughes on the clock and  I this is a pretty easy pick to make for you   guys yeah the goalie we get two now right uh but  you just just one we have commercial breaks too  

So okay okay uh before the commercial break you  guys want to make this why didn’t you make this   one dude uh which one you think I think Brock uh  from andur conect Brock besser oh oh wait you guys  

Needed a you needed a goalie though you have you  have take a goal hold on Brock Hold on he’ll be   back after the commercial break you got to take  the rolles two goalies before the seventh round  

So there’s one goalie so we wanted we were going  to take the goalie but we thought we were just   cuz we had two in a row we felt like can we get  security down here please I feel like I just lost  

A Grammy or an Academy Award or something tell  it you going to do the honors you’re good go for   it go for it go for it all right cam talet let’s  go camer there he is a home coming for cam T but  

A second All-Star game for the Kings goalie had to  take your goalies before round seven we had we had   to we had your com me next all every and there’s  team Hughes after seven rounds a distinct flavor  

To this Quin Hughes team with Pon they had kerov  Demco Kyle Conor Brady kachuck yeser brat and   cam talbat rounding out the first seven rounds  of our NHL Allstar player draft okay well time   to take a break I think we know who team Hughes  will take next if they don’t there’ll be issues  

In Vancouver we’ll be back with that pick next  welcome back to a very busy Scotia Bank Arena   hockey fans from around the world keeping their  eye on this including Brock besser who’s waiting   to have his name called and it was almost called  there Brock what’s a guy have to do you’re the  

2018 All-Star MVP you’re on Pace for 50 goals  what’s going on here um yeah I don’t know it’s   just uh a new year and uh you know just a new  self mentally and uh it’s been a great year  

For our team so far everyone’s been working hard  and uh our whole coaching staff has been great so   it’s been fun has it been nerve-racking though  sitting through all these picks uh not too not  

Too bad because I got MSY and Lindy with me so you  got some teammates and some friends here your new   teammate too all right we’re going to continue  this draft and it’s team Hughes on the board and  

Your name we’ll see if it comes up back to you  John yeah team Hughes is grinding right now I   don’t know if there’s dissension controversy you  make this Pi they brought besser over during the  

Commercial break I don’t know what was said my  am I on the clock are we on the clock you’re on   the clock need three more players let me just  say this on behalf of all my canu brothers and  

Sisters this is bull this is I I nothing that  happens tonight better cost me a Stanley Cup   you understand me I did my hair for three hours  for this moment we proudly select Brock besser  

Of he’s wearing out a path on this ice back and  forth B Rocky for the second time for the second   time all right David Amber another player waiting  to be picked tonight yeah Nick Suzuki who is the   first Montreal Canadian player since Mark wrecky  to make back to back to back All-Star appearances  

This is a different format do you like the format  yeah it’s been cool so far I think the captains   are doing a good job and you know the guys  sitting here are anxiously waiting well the  

Leafs and halves have a rivalry but do you want  to make any plea at all because it is going to   be Austin Matthews and Morgan Riley and Justin  Bieber making the next selection yeah hopefully  

Uh we can put the Rivalry aside maybe but you  know who knows it’s a long rivalry for sure all   right that’s the luck we got it three more rounds  John all right team Matthews uh Justin your squad   only has one defenseman that we talked about  maybe adding another another one or where do  

You think the team should go right now awesome  what are you thinking is this our pick Austin   our pick we on the clock the clock um know who  you’re going to pick he has the best mustache  

In the NHL I quite Envy it uh from the Ashville  Predators Philip forsberg that is a lip sweater   it’s the Envy of a prodigious Muzzy how you doing  bber and snip another finisher him Austin pitch   Matthew Clayton good stuff all right all right  team McKinnon what are we thinking here only  

Got a couple picks left so uh where you going  now with your latest pick well we we need an   agitator so no better guy than Travis Ki perfect  love it Travis Ki come on down you’re on team

McKinnon all right you can take your time MC  T McDavid will Arnette Leon dry SLE you got   plenty of time to talk about it um again before  your selection Connor what about what does this   weekend mean to you um for those may be watching  in the United States they don’t realize you grew  

Up around here what does this area mean to you  how did it affect you as a young kid growing up   uh yeah obviously it means a lot to me um you  know growing up in the area um this building  

Obviously watching the Leafs grow up um growing  up um yeah have a lot of family and friends in   town um especially for me 16 wins in a row your  team is on the heater you and Leon um what does  

That feel like when you come to an All-Star  Weekend you take a break and you’re still on   this this magical run does it make this more  relaxing and fun certainly a lot better than  

Where we were um you know we still got a long  way to go we dug ourselves a big hole and um   we’re doing a good job of getting ourselves  out of it but certainly special to be on a  

On a run like that um it feels good yeah five  more months it’s a long season and a long way   to go but we hope to see you guys in June all  right so you look at the squad three on three  

This Saturday Allstar format will Arnette uh  where are we going where do you think we should   go if you talk to the boys about I think we  I think we’ve got a consensus right yeah we   yeah that’s unanimous you got it uh we’re gonna  go with Boon Jenner oh boom Jenner they’re not  

Booing they’re saying Boon Captain the Columbus  Blue Jackets awesome for Boon to be at the allar weekend yeah what next what next so before your pick  conter you guys can talk about it well let’s   go through the roster one more time all these  teams have one more pick to go we’ll start with  

Team McDavid there it is Leon and Connor goalie  early and latest pick Boon Jenner that’s a nice   Squad right there lots a character and talent  team McKinnon with their celebrity C Captain   Tate McCrae just took Travis concy with their  last they got concy and Wilson they might be  

Short-handed in this game a couple times we’ll  have to wait and see on that one David Amber and   team Matthews of course Austin and Morgan Riley  selecting two teammates William Mander and Mitch   Marner off the Hop and then AER and shurin are  their goalies hel barel and Philip forsberg as  

Austin says with the best mustache in the game  round out their first seven picks and for team   Hughes they’re contemplating things right now  Michael bé is very animated over there but he   likes the squad so far they’ve selected Nikita  kucherov the leading Point getter in the NHL  

Thater Demco Kyle Connor Brady kachu out a little  grit yes for brat Cam talet and Brock besser all   right one more selection for each team had  plenty of time to talk about it Connor we  

Know where we’re going yeah I think so um will  do you want to make it yeah we’re going to uh   pick a guy who’s uh an awesome hockey player he  plays for a team that is a long standing rival  

Of the Leafs because he’s a half My Team LEAF  is my hometown of Toronto wow but we’re going   to pick Mr Nick Suzuki come on a lot of love in  the room Nick Suzuki how are you so Nick Suzuki  

Will join his team McDavid so we’ll watch  Nick skate over there’s his Squad saying   hi to his teammates for a day Saturday three on  three as we have four 11 player squads here and   Nick Suzuki is the latest to join team McDavid  all right team McCrae team mckinon team Mar mmm  

You have one more pick to go yeah this could be  the Difference Maker think okay so I’m sad he   just got traded for my hometown team yeah you’re a  big flame fan right M um so we’re going to go with  

Elias [Music] lenol yeah hearing that this weekend  wearing a flame Jersey so now one of those unique   situations where for the first time he wears  a kuu jersey here at All-Star Weekend Elias   lolm a lot of teams wanted him and Vancouver got  him and this team got him two team McKinna well

[Music] done and that puts Austin Matthews on  the clock there’s been very little deliberation   you guys are kind of chill just going  about your business are you disagree on   every pick I think we just yeah we know who  we want and just make the pick easy as that  

You have one defenseman you have your two  goalies and and uh what are you thinking   with your second last pick Morgan’s going to  make this one Alex De Brat from the Detroit   Red Wings there he is Alex the bring  he’s got a one time bomb second time Allar and there it is you have a lot of undersized  forward on your team like Fast crafty guys [Music]   all right so Austin Matthews has one more pick to  make and here’s the final pick up the eighth round  

Team use they’ve been talking a lot Michael D’s  been doing most of the talking what’s going on oh   I mean uh we’re in heaven we love the team we have  beautiful are you kidding me um who wants to we  

Know the pick it’s just a matter of who wants to  make the pick uh we got from Vancouver JT Miller   there is the rugged forward JT Miller what a  season he’s had his first All-Star appearance   on Pace for 112 points he joins his teammates  on the Vancouver Canucks four Canucks on team  

David it’s uh uh five five withco never that so  my goodness it’s the Vancouver Canucks versus   the Toronto M police when you look at these  two teams because clear r that show all those so we have four players left we’re going to take  a break and they’re going to find out what team  

They will be joining all at the same time when we  come back at the Tim Horton nhel Allstar player   draft back for the conclusion after this welcome  back to Scotia Bank Arena as we’re ready to wrap
