3 spots left in the LSL. Other leagues are full I think.
Feel free to send me an invite to LSL (genki origami in HHL), will try out some different draft strategies...

ME: oh yeah, I'll join LSL too, try out some whacky draft things

ALSO ME: I finished 2nd overall in LSL last season, lost on a tiebreaker in the championship game.

I really wanted Seider predraft, and he went for $50. Then I entered a bidding war and spent $53 on Nurse, who I also wanted, but I prefer Seider. I also stopped bidding on Bobrovsky around $20, and should have just kept going. But, I will forget both of these things very shortly.
I take comfort that I got Bob then, since you outbid me on Nurse. Haha.

On mobile, so will have to share team later, but overall pretty impressed with the team I ended up with, considering I slept through the first hour (auto picks were Rantanen and Kucherov for 190 total or something, which is… ok, I guess). My team profile is pretty old so I suspect a middling finish unless everyone magically doesn’t get injured, or I snag some unknown person on the wire that takes off. Oh well, this year’s drafts coincided with some international trip prep so I’m not too invested in outcomes.

I should really just not do this league anymore. Another year of me not being able to make the draft and this team is thoroughly horrible and I don't even have exciting players to root for. This is gonna be brutal.
As someone that usually deals with these things in JST, I sympathize. It can be fun/interesting to try to find hidden gems to have cheap keepers next year, but it can be a bit of a grind.

I slept through my first two picks, but I seem to have turned out ok overall? I think.

1. (7) Nikita Kucherov (TB - RW) $90
2. (13) Mikko Rantanen (COL - RW) $100
3. (63) Claude Giroux (OTT - C,RW) $50
4. (65) Sergei Bobrovsky (FLA - G) $21
5. (70) Anze Kopitar (LA - C) $32
6. (72) Alex Pietrangelo (VGK - D) $26
7. (79) Miro Heiskanen (DAL - D) $41
8. (130) Philipp Grubauer (SEA - G) $21
9. (133) Neal Pionk (WPG - D) $10
10. (143) Jack Campbell (EDM - G) $16
11. (161) Rasmus Sandin (WSH - D) $11
12. (172) Seth Jarvis (CAR - C,RW) $4
13. (173) Taylor Hall (CHI - LW) $1
14. (185) Ryan O'Reilly (NSH - C) $1
15. (245) Chandler Stephenson  (VGK - C) $18
16. (246) Matt Boldy  (MIN - LW,RW) $22
17. (247) Zach Hyman  (EDM - LW,RW) $14
18. (248) Adam Larsson  (SEA - D) $6

A lot of this will depend on my goaltending, which I spent very little on this year. If things work out there, I think this team will be competitive! I hope.

Also, I wish my team was a little younger...

Tried not to homer too much, only Hyman and Campbell this year. And Campbell is the third goaltender, so really no expectations there.
