[Canucker]

Wat?

It’s your lucky day…only an 8% chance of winning.

 

[nameless1]

I deserve some credit.

 

[Balls Mahoney]

Rigged.

 

[BrockH]

Rigged.

100%

Anyone want to draft for me so my team doesn't suck (even if it's just off pre-rankings + filling positional needs)?

 

[nameless1]

Operation Suck-for-Bedard was a failure for me.

Wat?

Is that pick available for trade?
I do have 4 1sts.


At least that way...
My year would not have been a waste.

Send an offer lol. Probably leaning no though as I have never had an elite keeper before.

If I do all 4 firsts...

It's borderline impressive that you spelled Oettinger so wrong while nailing the spelling of Verhaeghe

 

[Canucker]

Anyone looking to trade to upgrade their keepers, or is everyone basically locked in to what they have?

Only for very specific players.
I could move a rookie...
But I am fine to stay put.

I work with a guys named Verhaegher and Ottanger. SO mind cramp there

 

[Canucker]

I'd like to (again) push for a larger keeper list...I hate giving up a ton of good players to you bottom feeders. ...seriously tho...it's a keeper league, we should have more keepers.

 

[nameless1]

7 + 2 or 8 + 1 is plenty.

Not for me…I want more.

 

[CRDragon]

The players in the deals have been processed. Picks will be changed after keeper deadline and subsequent trade freeze.

f*** no.

Translation would be the better teams would just stay good and the bad teams would stay bad. We are already far too liberal at "keeping" players, in my opinion and the rule preventing bad teams from keeping rookies after the dead line already limits the ability of a team to rebuild quickly.

Solution: Be better...why do the "good teams" need to be penalized to help the bad teams? If I work to pick good players up, make good trades and good draft selections...why should I help subsidize other teams who don't make good choices? It's a keeper league, it shouldn't be quick and easy to rebuild a team if you mismanage it....and if you can do it quick and easy, then you deserve props. Just my opinion.

Bad teams already have all their rookies well before the deadline. The 'Owen Power' rule is to prevent situations where first overall picks never go through a draft.

When is the keeper deadline?

Three nights before the draft. Oct 5th 11:59pm PST.

8-9 keepers aren't enough??
