Those of you who've participated over the last five years know the system:
Try to predict the first round of the upcoming entry draft. You get 3 points for a direct hit, 2 points for being off by one place, and 1 point for missing by two spots.
Remember, this is not a mock draft (you are just trying to be close to a player's actual draft position) so you don't have to write team names or think about needs etc..
Remember to write 33 names. Why? Because if the actual #30 or #31 is your 32 or 33 pick you still pick up 'just missed' points. Do it only once -- so be careful. No editing.
Deadline is the moment Bettman takes the stage on day 1 of the draft. Absolutely no entries after that.
After the 1st round is finished, copy your original entry and re-post it with the total score added. Do it within 48 hours of the draft. I'll bump this a few times before draft day.
Winner gets a big pile of accolades and a basket of kudos. I'll do mine to start:
1. Dahlin
2. Svechnikov
3. Tkachuk
4. Zadina
5. Hughes
6. Dobson
7. Wahlstrom
8. Kotkaniemi
