The real fun of living wisely is that you get to be smug about it.

I'll take Zach Redmond. There may be a good reason he keeps bouncing around the league as a depth defenseman but he's had good numbers and I always liked the guy. Also, he can't be killed.

Louis Domingue is a rough approximation of an average NHL goalie and he's young so why not.

I'm gonna go ahead and take one of the very best shutdown forwards in the league. He's still just 23 but has put together successive terrific seasons, with very good fancies despite starting in the defensive zone almost 70% of the time for a poo poo team.

Winnipeg selects Johan Larsson.

I like my top pair but after that it's extremely questionable. Who knows if Gudas is as good as he was this year, and Daley's possession numbers haven't been terribly impressive when he isn't on the Mike Sullivan Pens. Matheson is promising but young.

I guess the hope would be that my forwards can make the d look better than it probably is a la the real Pens. Trouble is I have no Letang, but I have some confidence that my top pair could eat up a poo poo load of minutes at least.

They're fine, just old and not necessarily going to be effective for much longer. Greene is still fantastic at shutting down offense against top comp but sucks at offense and Boychuk is great at generating offense.

Yeah that first line is awful, especially considering I doubt Bennett plays many games or is good enough to be a first liner. Your center depth is good if aging, your defense is great and Quick is fine but your wingers are...um...

Well the last two guys are probably going back to Juniors, even in my hypothetical fantasy franchise management so there's a little more flexibility there.

Zajac and Foligno really do have poo poo contracts though lol


Anyways I'm thinking I'll take probably 1 more prospect maybe and then go with cheap and hopefully not poo poo vets for the 4th line/bottom pair/backup goalie. I just couldn't rationalize taking some replacement player over those two guys but I'm probably missing some under the radar bottom six/fourers.

Greene gets ridiculously tough matchups so if you're criticizing his possession numbers based off of that I don't think you're giving him enough credit. Boychuk I know less about but he seems at least adequate as a top 4 possession guy.

Not saying it'd be a dominant first pair or anything but I think it would get by with my forwards and an aggressive system.

e: also like the only thing I don't like about your team is Parise's contract and that Steen/Parise/Bergeron are all on the wrong side of 30 but man that's a great lineup even if I still don't know who Buchnevich is

T-Bone and I are going to be out of pocket for a week starting Friday so you can just skip us at that point if it's our pick. We can finish our picks when get back I guess. Probably not even worth it to PM a list at this point as I don't know how many picks will be between now and then and in any case we're at a point in the draft where it's not like I'm likely to miss out by not being able to draft Tanner Glass or whoever
