Fun draft...I was wondering when a league A thread would begin...well that took all of 5 minutes.
Still can't believe that Crosby was a top 10 pick in this thing...I wonder if he'll live up to the hype.
Here's how it went for me:
Centers:
Peter Forsberg
Brad Richards
Left Wingers:
Paul Kariya
Corey Stillman
Right Wingers:
Dany Heatley
Jonathan Cheechoo
Defensemen:
Brian McCabe
Dick Tarnstrom
Brian Rafalski
John-Michael Liles
Goalies:
Roberto Luongo
Jose Theodore
Reserves:
David Vyborny
Henrik Zetterberg
Ryan Malone
Lubomir Visnovsky
Kovalchuk and Hossa, that should get you some big points Lance, and Drez wow, you got a solid team man, nice work!
*I just decided to drop the 3-goalie system, I needed a back-up centreman bad, so I swapped Osgoode for McCauley-pending..
I am contemplating allowing each team to add 2 more reserve (bench) positions.
This way it will total 6 backups (at least 1 for each position and 1 extra...C,RW,LW,D,G, extra).
If everyone agrees, I will create these two open slots on Tuesday. Players can be added to the roster at that point.
I should have done this from the start but didn't realize that a couple more reserves could probably help everybody until now.
Let me know
can you use players already on other peoples team

No, it would be from the pool of players that did not get drafted.
is there going to be another league made for all the hipbasers who missed this one

Try the B league...I am not sure if it filled up as of yet, but it will soon.

all full
<bump> Im think Im going to be screwed down the middle this year. Its still pre-season and already Roenick has had his bell rung. He better recover in time for the start of the season. I also have Koivu a good player but also very injury prone, seems I was careless in picking centres. What are the odds of McCauley kicking some ass this year? Good I hope..
