well fellas im off for the night should i give someone a list or do you think this wil be the last round for tonite?

 

[TBLbrian]

i would say give a list of a few players, we could go through 1 more round, but since Toronto is out also we might get stopped there

 

[TBLbrian]

i want to re-sign Zherdev...is everyone okay if i take it up with Agent??

yea send me a pm of your final deal ill letcha now in the morning my opinion...unless agent thinks its a great deal bc i trust his judgement

 

[TBLbrian]

that sounds good, ill work it out with Agent and then get the final decision from you..that way we get a 2nd opinion. thats fair.

 

[McRobbiezyg]

i hate you agent.. wolski was mine!!! lol i'm polish.. i desereevveeee him.

 

[agent2421]

haha lol... My main goal was to get Zherdev but TBLbrifi stole that from me. I'm loving how fast this went!

 

[McRobbiezyg]

rats coburn was my next pick... back to drafting forwards i guess lol

 

[TBLbrian]

it's always a good feeling to steal picks

even though Agent stole Enstrom!

it is so fun when its this steady

[TBLbrian]

haha whoops. i was reading your message and typing that at the same time

 

[agent2421]

lol, that was pretty impressive guys. Hopefully Odishabs has Toronto's list and both of them go today but if not no sweat.

We actually went through alot today!

 

[TBLbrian]

i'll be gone tomorrow between 11am-3pm

i'll try to send a list, but ill check before i leave and right when i come back, so hopefully it won't move this fast around then.


we should only have 2 do less than half the draft on MSN, correct?

 

[camperjr]

I'll be online off and on all day. If I happen the miss a pick just use the list I sent last night odis.

what about players that play both positions.

for example: Patrice Bergeron plays the wing at times even though he is listed as a Center.

players switch positions all the time, i don't why we cant just draft forwards.

that ruins the whole point in that case if i really wanted too i coulve drafted this top line


zetterberg-kovalchuk-savard


that is dumb the point is not to draft the best player available and than just randomly plug them into my line. i coulve not draft getzlaf in that case and just took kovalchuk and moved heatley to centre. so know you must have players at their proper position otherwise its not a team...

but in bergerons case i have a subscription to every hockey news magazine and i know he has played wing before so thats fine but moving briere to left wing and gagner to left (the only position he doesnt play that is not allowed.

there j corb i put my foot down. lol

4 lwers
4 centres
4 rwers
6 defencman
1 starter 1 backup
probably 3 bench players


and a farm team

okay those are still formidable lines...! woot thanks for the help

 

[odishabs]

np thanks for bein kewl bout it.

 

[Makeshift We Are]

who's pick is it?>
oh it is edmonton... can we just auto/skip him so i can make my pick
?

 

[jcorb58]

i only drafted 1 guy out of place, that is voracek, i guess he slides down to the 3rd line rw and im short my second line lw

most drafts for position allow you to draft wingers or centers not caring if they are right or left.

what about a defenceman that plays forward like byfuglien

now you ruined everything odis my team had 2 nice neat lines lol

my picks were based on 5 yr thats why i didnt target the really young guys like SS going for the gaboriks and campbells when i could of had Green and Backstrom
