He also allows me to give Nolan Patrick a more sheltered role and the ability to grow into what he needs to be better. this is pretty good as long as Nash and Koivu don't fall off a cliff. Spurgeon/Faulk on the right is really strong and obv Holtby.

Hmmm I feel like I should take a vet but I really want Kyle Connor who I think will be this year's Ehlers for the Jets (perhaps a better talent, but he won't play enough with Laine and Scheifele to do 60 point damage). We'll say he's on the second line for now because I like the idea of him with Radulov: ?-Seguin-Forsberg Connor-?-Radulov Stralman-Letang Hjalmarsson-Honka Schneider T-Bone fucked around with this message at 01:47 on Jul 27, 2017 |

I'm still here so Timo Meier who is supposed to be on San Jose's first line and was a possession monster last year, hopefully he scores some more too. I'll definitely be out for my next picks, so fire away Corn/Exxon. Meier-Seguin-Forsberg Connor-?-Radulov Stralman-Letang Hjalmarsson-Honka Schneider I thought Habibi would take him for sure but interestingly he took Zacha, who I sorta thought about too but he was pretty disappointing last year even though I think he'll end up be something (I'm not sure what, but something). Connor/Honka/Meier are pretty young but they're all second year dudes slated for top six/top four roles and I kinda need ELC dudes who can perform with my cap hits so good luck boys.

Yeah Boeser and Keller were high on my list. I think all three will be studs. Keller was the US's best player after Gaudreau at the WC. If I could poo poo on my team for a moment I think the problem is it has a lot of guys right at 29-31 who should still be good but are about to start sliding/arguably have started sliding (Letang, Schneider, Hjalmarsson, Stralman, Sobotka, Radulov), then ~JAGR~, one hopefully fixable Strome, and then three Sophomores who I think will be impact NHL players (Connor, Honka, Meier -- well Connor and Honka for sure, hopefully Meier based on his junior numbers and small sample size massive shot generation last year). It really only has two guys who are right in their primes (Seguin, Forsberg). I don't think those older guys will fall off a cliff, but certainly as they lose a step the Connors and Honkas would have to pick up the slack.

In NHL terms they would have to forfeit cash (revenue sharing for instance), draft picks, and eventually games:quote:(i) Impose a fine of up to $5 million in the case of a Circumvention by a Club or Club Actor, but in no circumstances shall such fine be less than $1 million against any Club or Club Actor if such party is found to have violated Article 50 of this Agreement. If such a fine is assessed against a Club (except in the case of a financial reporting violation), that Club's Payroll Room shall also be reduced by such amount for the following League Year, and if such reduction of the Club's Payroll Room renders the Club out of compliance with the Payroll Range (i.e., the Club does not have sufficient Payroll Room to accommodate its Player commitments comprising Club Salary) for such following League Year, then the Club must take such steps as are necessary (e.g., Assignment, Buy-Out, Waivers, etc.) and as are permitted by this Agreement to ensure that the Club will be in compliance with Article 50 of this Agreement upon There are enough bad contracts out there for him to hit the floor though.

I probably (definitely) don't need his cap hit but I'm convinced he'd still be a great 2nd pairing guy on a real team. Gimme Andy Greene. Should be worth it when Letang goes down anyhow.

The guy I probably should have picked last round, had a really good year in the AHL and looks poised to play for the Caps this year: Christian Djoos (another Swede!) -- kind of a soft bottom three with Djoos/Honka/Heed, but they're all dudes who can skate and move the puck and I've got three pretty solid suppression guys in my top four so I think it'd work out well. Plus New NHL, yadda, yadda. This team is ending up more under the cap than I expected. Penciling in Jagr at 5m I should end up with around 7-9m left in cap space.

Hmmm let's take a guy that probably won't play this year (although his coach in Finland seems to think he has a shot for some reason) Miro Heiskanen. My top four is a bit on the older side and he should be coming into his own as they move on/decline.

I think it's my pick so I'll go with AHL MVP Kenneth Agostino -- signed a one way deal with Boston and hopefully he'll break in to their third line. Meier - Seguin - Forsberg Connor - Sobotka - Radulov Jaskin - R.Strome - Jagr O'Regan - Sedlak - Compher Agostino Hjalmarsson - Letang A.Greene - Stralman Djoos - Honka Heed Schneider Dell Prospects: Miro Heiskanen Head Coach Jon Cooper I mean I probably should have taken more prospects over Agostino/Heed but they're ready now. This team rules and is in fact awesome today and tomorrow. I think realistically this draft should be at least 30 picks (prospects, etc) but not everyone is a true nerd so I get it T-Bone fucked around with this message at 19:20 on Aug 17, 2017 |

Meier - Seguin - Forsberg Connor - Sobotka - Radulov Jaskin - R.Strome - Jagr O'Regan - Sedlak - Compher Agostino Hjalmarsson - Letang A.Greene - Stralman Djoos - Honka Heed Schneider Dell Prospects: Miro Heiskanen Head Coach Jon Cooper  Of course I'm not the most neutral observer but this is certainly the best 'Win Now' team I've drafted. First Line: Seguin/Forsberg obviously is a pretty safe bet to dominate and do all the things you want your first line to do. Timo Meier is slated to play on San Jose's top line this year, and was a possession monster (in admittedly a small sample size) last year and a monster in juniors. It's perhaps a little much to ask of him at his age but I think he could handle it. Second Line: Sobotka looked like St. Louis's best player in the playoffs after Tarasenko. I think he's slated to be their 3C, but looking at his numbers over the years I think he's a very viable 2C, especially with Radulov on his wing. Connor is something of a question mark, but he was the best player in the AHL over the 2nd half of last year and absolutely insane in the USHL and college. I think he'll be this year's Ehlers for the Jets, probably not that production level (because he won't play with Scheifele and Laine), but he may have more talent. Sobotka and Radulov are getting up there in age, but they should still have enough left in the tank to make this a very solid second line for 2-3 years. Third Line: Probably my biggest weakness. I need Strome to recover and become something of the player he was slated to be. Jagr and Jaskin are huge bodies and suppression monsters, so hopefully this line could hold their own, chip in here and there, and grind it out like the Kings bottom six used to do. Fourth Line: I went perhaps too young here. Sedlak was a great suppression guy last year, but I am admittedly worried about his low AHL production. The Jackets seem to like him though. O'Regan and Compher are guys who dominated in college and carried that into really great AHL debuts (O'Regan was rookie of the year). Agostino was the AHL MVP. I've always been pretty high on these kinds of guys. I don't really buy that top line career AHL players can't be good NHLers, even in a bottom six role. The NHL's thinking just hasn't caught up to that line of thinking yet (although it's trending that way). Not that O'Regan and Compher are slated to be career AHLers anyway, both guys are expected to be full time NHLers very soon by their respective franchises. Agostino is more of a question mark (he's already 25), but Boston liked him enough to give him a one way deal and he was good in his limited time with the Blues after destroying the AHL. First Pair: When Letang is healthy, he's one of the best D in the league. Hopefully he plays more than 40 games. Hjalmarsson would be expected to play a similar role to the one he'll take for the Yotes this year (pairing with OEL and letting him do this thing). Second Pair: Greene has had somewhat ugly fancies over the past year-year and a half, but that's because he's expected to do anything and everything for the abysmal Devils D corps. Paired with Stralman I think he's very viable as a 2nd pair shutdown guy. These two would be rock loving solid imo. Third Pair: It would have been nice to have someone more steady with Honka, who is going to be a puck moving beast, but I like Djoos a lot and think he'll make Washington this year. This pair would get a lot offensive zone draws and chip in some points here and there. Honka is capable of moving into the top four (I believe Dallas is playing him there) when/if Letang goes down. Heed is a RHD who lit up the AHL last year (ppg from D) and could move into Honka's spot should Letang go down. Goalies: I'm still pretty high on Schneider despite his poo poo year. With this D in front of him I have to think he'd have a pretty good year. He is getting a bit older though. Dell was one of the best backups in the league last year but he's pretty unproven so hopefully it wasn't a fluke! Prospects: Miro played in the Liiga at age 17. Hopefully he'll be better than Larsson. Man for a team that had nothing on D for a while Dallas could have an incredible D with him/Honka/Klingberg and even Lindell (although he was kinda lovely last year). Coach: I like Cooper a lot, his systems are positive and his players seem to like him. Great lower league track record too. The Cap: 2019 would be a big year. A lot of big time players with expiring contracts at the UFA (chiefly Seguin) and RFA level. T-Bone fucked around with this message at 04:31 on Aug 18, 2017 |

Ginette Reno posted:I'm not super thrilled with my forward group though being able to snag Cullen late did a lot to redeem my fourth line which was looking disastrous. I do have a pretty strong defense, though. Murray-Jensen is a great third pair, I think, and my top 4 is strong. it's another team I think is better than the Real Canadiens (especially the D). I like Zajac a lot as a 3C but Armia/Jurco are pretty meh.
