I'll pick later when I'm off work I didn't realize the second was immediate.



Also if you guys are doing a 1 pick per day thing it'd be super down.

Yeah, that sounds good to me. I figure if we finish the 18th round before hand we'll do the rest of the 19th round starting at 10AM. Otherwise I guess whoever is left in the 18th can make that pick along with the 19th round.

I'm cool with that but also we could do something that staggers groups of ten throughout the day or something just to keep it semi-fair. Probably just easier to do a first come first serve, especially since folks seem to be dropping out.

This would be my vote but I honestly don't care. I have been on this forum a long time and I know how stuff like this usually goes, so the fact that we are as far along as we are at this point is an accomplishment in and of itself

What did we do last year, I don't remember doing the all pick on the same day at any point thing. There's still a couple players I have my eye on to fill out my dumb fake team.

e: even staggered groups of 5 would probably work and be at least somewhat "fair", six timeframes for people to pick, EST 1000-1200, 1200-1400, 1400-1600, 1600-1800, 1800-2000, 2000-2200? Start with the first five and they can pick at any time in that frame, then it moves to the next two hour window and so forth? Reverse order the next day and we can get through every round in a day, and everyone knows when their window is.

ee: holy poo poo i'll have had an account and continuing to post on this forum for ten years in October, pretty sure I was browsing it for 2-5 years before that too I have no idea

The problem with 1 pick per hour is half of you are being skipped on every pick with 2 hours.

That's why I'm thinking we should just do timeframes to save headaches figuring out who is getting skipped and when and random times to pick based on when the last guy picked.

Just making it a pick at 10am is easy and quick and at this point sniping guys is kind of irrelevant. Anyone decent is already long gone. Mark Fayne has been picked.

Someone picked Rob Scuderi like fifteen rounds ago but three were still actual NHLers to grab, if you guys prefer a free for all to the revised timeframes I'll shut up

gently caress it, let's just start over.



Also, expansion draft? I know it's a tear out but could be fun. Maybe appoint a few to pick for Vegas or do some kind of vote system or rotating pick system. (e.g. 3 gms are selected at random from those that don't miss picks and they make rotating selections of 3 picks and we all vote on the one to pick... or something else as needlessly complicated)

I'm down for an expansion draft.

JoelJoel forgot to pick when they last posted so I'll take Al Montoya because he is a goaltender who plays in the NHL and there is a good chance Jake Allen is getting injured at some point so I need someone good for 20-25 games.

I drafted assuming an expansion draft (for the most part) and would be happy to have some undetermined goon take all of my lovely players


With that said, the Sharks take Jeff "Mike Dad 'Blased God' Bab Clock (Jr.)" Blashill because I'm a homer and he's an actually good coach who's going to get run out of town when the Wings miss the playoffs and land on his feet in Columbus or some poo poo and be awesome.
