Would the following please "sign in" (post):
Bablaboushka (yeah I know)
Canucks Man
JBraiter
1 Crosby Fan
TCTitans
I have randomly chosen the order above with my graphing calculator (it isn't unfair that I'm first, I really didn't want to be), as I have done for the other three drafts. Remember, this is a snake draft (1 through 5 then 5 through 1, etc.).
A reminder of the rules:
quote:
5 forwards, 3 defensemen and 1 goalie = 9 players. I don't think it's too much if the drafting gets done in a timely manner. When the GOAT draft rolled, it really rolled quickly so I think it's doable. Points would be simple:
1 point for:
Goal
Assist
2 points for:
Goalie win
Goalie shutout (extra)
The players may be chosen in any order. The drafting CAN begin now, as only the 8th spot in the East has not yet been decided. The NYI/NJ game should end around 6ET, where the draft could go on as usual. But because I had only said it would start tomorrow night, you should expect that some might not be able to log on (plus, it's Easter). If you want to wait for the 8th seed to be set to choose a player (either from Tor or NYI), that's fine, we can wait. Other than that, poolies who do not wish to choose from either of these teams and are next in their draft order may make their selections. The purpose of the time zones has become useless now, so were just separated in groups to facilitate drafting. If there is an equal number of poolies in each draft that show up, we will be able to merge all the drafts (once completed) to compete in one GIANT pool. Let me remind you of the playoff picture to date:
East
(1)Buffalo vs. (8)Tor/NYI (if they win today)
(2)New Jersey vs. (7)Tampa Bay
(3)Atlanta vs. (6)NYR
(4)Ottawa vs. (5)Pittsburgh
West
(1)Detroit vs. (8)Calgary
(2)Anaheim vs. (7)Minnesota
(3)Vancouver vs. (6)Dallas
(4)Nashville vs. (5)San Jose
Seeds (1)-(4) have home ice advantage in the first round. Detroit will have home ice advantage through the first three rounds (should they make it) and Buffalo will have home ice advantage throughout the playoffs, including the Stanley Cup Finals (should they make it).
Let the drafting begin!

| Well, seen as I am first to choose, I will already use my goalie pick to select Ryan Miller. Nothing against my team, I just think Buffalo will tear their way through the East. |

I guess I didnt look close enough at the rules, cause if I did, I would be completely against goalies in a playoff pool - to me, this destroys the integrity of the pool. The team who's goalie makes it to the finals 'should' win.. regardless of how well they pick otherwise.
Oh well.. a little late. my fault.
Just makes it a little less competitive to me...
No need to respond. |

May I suggest that if you know that you are going to be away for a while, that you give someone (Babs or I?) who is usually online a list of players that you want to select.
Perhaps I am completely wrong about this, but I *thought* that we were supposed to make ourselves available last night at 9pm PST go get the entire draft done quick...
obviously my mistake... |

Oh no, you're right. So much for that eh?
You know what though, if you're going to be unavailable then either send me (or TC if he'll be available) some picks (like 50, seriously). Otherwise, we'll proceed as I described in the Atlantic draft and we'll go through the draft that way. Come on guys, we're more than halfway done. |
