He was who I would have taken if I'd gone d instead of Guentzel. Good pick for sure.

i couldnt quite pick between skjei and tanev and ultimately i wanted someone that could control a bad player if they needed to. tanev has done flawlessly with keith ballard and others but i didnt know if skjei could

I need a top pairing RHD so I'm taking Charlie McAvoy. He's cheap, and he's good as hell. Part of me thinks he might have still been available on my next pick but I'd rather just take him now.

I figure now's a good a time as any to grab a goalie, so I'll be taking Steve Mason. He had a bad year, but I think he'll be able to bounce back, especially if he's given the clear role as #1 goalie.

Good Soldier Svejk is up, followed by Kilza

Looks like I made the right pick with Skjei based on you guys, had a hard time believing he was still available after the run on defensemen and couldn't tell if I was missing something.

Yeah, McAvoy is insanely talented and he was ready to make the jump sooner than anyone expected. He was dominant in the NCAA and looked phenomenal at world juniors, and obviously he made his NHL debut in the playoffs and didn't look out of place on the top pairing. He's legitimately already capable of playing a top pairing/first pp role. It's going to be interesting to see what he does in a full season.

Alright, I'm going to do a thing, and take Conor Sheary. He's youngish, his fancies are good, his points are good, and while he won't get to play with Crosby anymore he can still play with Jack Eichel.

Philadelphia takes C Charlie Coyle. He may be kinda prone to cold streaks, but when he's being aggressive he's a loving monster. The fact that's still only 24 is just icing on the cake.

Connor needs a winger who can pot in tap-ins, and this guy was pretty good at it for an inept goal-scoring team. The Chicago Blackhawks select Tanner Pearson.

Team Consensus takes Alec Martinez because they need a RHD to balance things out, giving them a line-up of:

JVR - Eric Staal - Kessel
Keith - Martinez
Rinne

Just under $44 mil in cap space now. I imagine the next consensus pick will be a forward, but we'll see.
