We're on for tomorrow night still at 9:30 EST. I'll set the IRC up @ around 9pm. We'll do this on SynIRC #SASdraft. Use something like Mibbit.com if you're like me and don't use IRC enough anymore to bother keeping a client installed on every computer.

The google doc is going to be here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/12NWRyXmwt-0NXLdkcxY5MpE4Mvl-9rj8TcJzMOyb5Ck/edit?usp=sharing

Thanks

Change to last night's draft - my brother doesn't want Read. He takes Elias Lindholm instead. Magic Cube, if you want Read for some reason, you can change your pick.

Same bat time same bat channel tonight guys.

I am happier with my team than I was last year. I think.

The only pick I took with gritted teeth was Eric Staal, but I am convinced last year was a slight aberration because of a low PP goals. We will see how wrong I am in a few months. I guess, now thinking about it, going after MacKinnon over Duchene may have too aggressive.

Since this was my first game I dunno if my strategy will work out or not. Hooray for learning experiences

I guess it also might have helped to actually have a list of all the trades/free agent signings, there were a bunch of players where I was like "oh poo poo he's on that team now?"

Yeah, I recommend having a list at all times. It also helps to know who to take at what time.

Most of my quick and dirty picks have come from last year's stat sheets + my own inadequate opinions about players, so a lot of the time i'll be looking at a players stats from last year and it'll be like "oh wait he got traded"

Hey so I've made the pool and we have a problem, Twin Cinema and Ginette both took Dupuis.

Ginette actually picked Dupuis though (pick #148). Sooooo Twin Cinema you need to take someone else...

I'll post the link once I finish inputting the teams.

e: Ginette I also need to know who your NJD pick was. The guy on your team for New Jersey was Martin Havlat. I think it was Zidlicky?
