Ok, so how this will go is I’ll have to just pick when free, work was busy, and I’ll be on vacation but in a different time zone.


I got number 13: Florida Panthers

I got Tails: worst choice.


Marc Staal would have been the obvious choice. Colin white has bad stats so I’m taking whomever the hell he is.

I'm not letting you get away with that. Brendan Smith is their worst player. Vanecek, despite his bad playoff performance, was pretty solid most of the season. Smith is just old and bad.

I guess? Won't die on the hill or anything and I suppose it tells us how good the Devils are when an above average starting goalie is their worst player (with a significant cap hit).

Posted in disc too, but in the interest of spurring discussion which is the most fun part of this, it's really interesting that the Kings, a team that has had 99 and 104 points the past two seasons, has had no players picked. The other o-fers are Anaheim/Philly/St. Louis

I like it. Everybody is already in or soon to be entering their prime, which is good IMO.

Again, really hard pick. Not really sure whether to take a winger, center, or goalie, and also not sure how to manage the cap. I have 3 $9m+ players on the roster.

I think I will select Jeremy Swayman, who is an RFA but expected to sign a bridge deal at $3-4m AAV, which I think will be a great deal for him.

Rantanen-Barzal

Slavin-Fox

In the middle of cooking dinner, will make my pick in a few. Also need some time to look up some players cause my short list got cleaned out.

e: Oh wait there is still one player left on my list. Kind of shocked he is still there too.

Gimme Trevor Zegras, another young high up side player with probably still a bit of room to grow. Wont be breaking 100 points or anything but I can see him being a consistent 70+ point player for my second line. Also fills my gently caress DEFENSE quota.

DO YALL WANT A BOXC posted:

The New York Rangers are proud to select Mikhail Sergachev and Shea Theodore. Sergachev came into his own last year, anchoring the 3rd best powerplay in the league en route to 64 points. Theodore was on pace for 61, led VGK's D in the playoffs in points, and of course won the Cup. Sergachev is 24 and is signed to a great long-term deal at 8.5. Theodore is at 5.2 for this year and next and then UFA, so that's either a very tradeable asset. But since we have Sergachev, we'll be able to suppress his points by keeping him off PP1 probably, so he'll be expensive but not break the bank. And I think his style could age reasonably (or be tradeable).



Boxc asked me to post his next pick as he's away from his computer. He takes Kyle Connor

I thought about a couple different options here, and would have taken Fiala if he dropped, but as it stands I’m going to take a goaltender. Despite only being a starter for one season, he’s probably the best goalie available and better than a number of the ones already selected. Or not, who knows, goalies are voodoo. I think he’s for real though.

Anyway, the Bulldogs select Alexander Georgiev.

Robertson - Zibanejad - ?

Just saw this. I have 4 hours before my next flight, is the consensus I switch to Brendan Smith ? Legit I don’t care about cap, I don’t care about structure , I just care about picking the worst or best player. Will switch if authorized to.

Nah we decided you still will need to hit the cap so it's fine.
