Donut's Fantasy Game 5.0 - Discussion Thread

[Gecklund]

I'm actually pretty proud of my cap management so far. Still have about 44M in cap space. Only thing I was really worried about.

If anyone wants an assistant who specializes in coming in 2nd and haxball curling just shoot me a pm.

How close is this game to being done, and would at least some of you be interested in doing a team draft (Snake draft to combine two/three teams) when it ends?

We're halfway done drafting. My guess will be voting should be underway by Monday.

I'd definitely be interested T6S.

Also to throw it out there now, I'm thinking of just running ongoing 10 GM fantasy drafts like this one throughout the summer with unique criteria's each time.

It helps that I have MacK, Drouin, and Jones and ELCs and Turris and Schneider signed to great deals.

Pfftt Drouin is healthy scratch material

[Addison Rae]

interested as well

 

[Top 6 Spaling]

Solid, I'll get working on the OP for when this one ends.

 

[LT]

I'd be down for that as well.

Also, I could've sworn Schwartz was picked earlier.

 

[Igor Shestyorkin]

I am also down for it!

Jamie Benn - Claude Giroux - Jakub Voracek
Nick Foligno - Derek Stepan - Ryan Strome

T.J. Brodie - P.K. Subban

Not particularly happy with anything but my first line and starting goalie.

Stepan's a beast GWG to go to the ECF

I'm happy with the Stepan pick. Can't believe I didn't get Schwartz, though. Had it in my head that he was gone.

Landeksog-Getzlaf-Okposo as my top line, pretty good one

Giordano-Karlsson as our first pairing, and I love that pairing

I don't like you and DB... both of you keep taking the guys I want right before my pick

Johny Gaudreau / Anze Kopitar / Patrick Kane
Zach Parise / Patrice Bergeron / xxx
Brandon Saad / Ryan Johansen / Evgeny Kuznetsov

Alex Edler / Drew Doughty

Love you too

And I'm down T6S

Your welcome bud.

 

[Igor Shestyorkin]

I don't like you and DB... both of you keep taking the guys I want right before my pick

and that's kind of ironic because when you make the 2 straight picks you really haven't taken anyone we were looking at
Accept for Duncan Keith maybe.

 

[VanIslander]

For the record, during this draft, after the first three teams completed their top lines, I posted them on the NHL Board's POLL sub-board at HfBoards, and here are the results (I did not vote):

Ovechkin-Backstrom-Perry of Vegas Black Knights got basically 55% of the vote;

Zetterberg-Tavares-Kessel of Brewster Bull Dogs got basically 1% of the vote. (OUCH! The most significant finding of this poll.);

Hall-Crosby-Tarasenko of Florida Panthers got basically 44% of the vote (with several posters basically sayin' it's because of Crosby!)
