maybe next draft should only be a 5 rounder? people seem to lose interest after the 5th.

And I don't really understand why. I've got a specific player in mind that I really, really like but promised myself I wouldn't take earlier than the 7th round. I'm excited to see if he's still there at my pick. I've got another player in mind that I'm not totally in love with, but I figured he'd be a 4th or 5th rounder at the latest. I'm a little shocked he's still on the board. he's a great second option. To me, there's plenty to be interested in after the fifth round.

i'm gonna see if i can snitch that player before you pick him....i still have to pick for the Flyers, Isles, and Oil.

Maybe it should go something along the lines of

1st Round - 5 hours
2nd Round - 4 Hours
3rd Round -3 Hours
4th Round - 3 Hours
5th Round - 2 Hours
6th Round - 2 Hours
7th Round - 1 Hour

Keeps things moving a little more.

Water Knight is up and rey has the two after him. So if you leave don't stray far. And we are looking at changes next Mock to get things moving. I'll be putting up a signup thread for Mock 2 in the next couple of days.

 

[ManByng]

^dibs on 2 or 3 of the following teams that i haven't had before like Buffalo, Florida, Columbus, Colorado....

 

[RR]

make sure you include the Habs new 3rd round pick courtesy of Dallas in the Erik Cole trade.

i also thought having the CSS draft list was extremely helpful....will the full list of eligible players be up before the draft picks are taken?

We'll post the CSS Rankings before we actually start Mock #2.
