Uhhh Colorado just made their picks, St. Louis just made a pick this morning and Vancouver's GM said that he would be unable to make his final picks because of a vacation and to just pick for him. Not really seeing what the issue is.

Like idk but some people haven't drafted a goalie/ back up yet. Its the final round and people are STILL picking forwards!

Kinda strange in my opinion

Good point.

Are we able to draft some NHLers in the 21st to 25th rounds? (As long as our totals are still UNDER the cap for all present-day NHLers?)

My team has 12 F, 6D and 2G but I'd be interested in a couple of extra players given the cap room I have, and it'd help those who haven't drafted a backup goalie after 20 rounds!!

I thought it was self implied that you have to have 12 F, 6 D and 2 G by the end of the 20th round; in the original OP we didn't even have the 21st-25th rounds. If you do not complete your team by the end of the 20th round, your team is DQed. (Yes, if you have to change your 20th round pick then go for it.)

The teams with missing cap info are

:caps :pens :sabres :avs :nucks

----------------------------------------------​

:nhl would like the announce that the :kings have been DISQUALIFIED from the game. False cap info, being over the cap and spelling Marchand's name Merchand has resulted in this decision.​

FORWARDS
Brad Marchand ($4.500m) / Steven Stamkos ($7.500m) / Jamie Benn ($5.250m)
Dustin Brown ($5.875m) / Ryan N.-Hopkins ($6.000m) / Rick Nash ($7.800m)

Probably should have reversed the order for the prospect draft but oh well.

See y'all in the playoffs,...

Prospects & depth options for a playoff run: Boone Jenner LW/C, Eric Gelinas D, Zemgus Girgensons C, Malcolm Subban G, Matt Nieto LW.

Karlsson 6.5, Rask 7.0, Marleau 6.7, MacKinnon 0.9, Josi 4.0, Oshi 4.2, Pominville 5.6, Palat 0.6, Sekera 2.8, Callahan 4.3, Read 3.6, Michalek 4.0, Gorges 3.9, Ward 3.0, Ott 3.0, Braun 1.3, Smith 2.0, Mason 4.1, Stoll 3.25, King 0.8 = 70.7 total salary (14.3 remains). Totals are rounded up to the first decimal point so actually a bit more than 14.3 million remains!

As a GM I've built a team that could compete for the cup now and into the future. There really should be only two models of team building: A) an immediate cup run at all costs OR B) dynasty building; and,... the so-called other option: (c) rebuilding by tanking is a modern blemish on the game and it can quickly be eradicated by giving every team that misses the playoffs an EQUAL shot at the number one overall pick!! Someday the NHL will wise up and do so.

With the draft finally done, awaiting some final selections to be made, trading will be open for a day. Trade deadline for any deals will be 8PM EST tomorrow. After the deadline passes, please send in votes. Because activity looks to have died off these past few days, you will ONLY qualify for the Stanley Cup playoffs if you send in votes.

:kings are DQed from the game; :nucks won't be here for voting

-----------------------------------------------------

How voting works?
Number the teams from 1-15 (LAK DQed), 1 being the top team and 15 being the worst. Standings will be based off of which team you believe will do the best during the regular season. The lower the total number, the better. Outsider voting is welcomed as well to include any unbias opinion.

Send all votes to me, DonutLee

Happy with the turnout with my team. Lots of skill, speed, experience and talent in the top-6, a young and fast 3rd line and a big and experienced 4th line. The blue-line is solid all around; I'll admit it's not the best in the league but it's for sure up there. Finally, the goalie tandem is amazing; both Niemi and Smith are Olympians and are considered top-10 in the NHL. This team is build to place high in the regular season standings and ready to go on a run for the cup.

Top Prospects:

Brett Ritchie


I've built a team that consists of elite scorers and great two-way players. Claude Giroux has more points during the last 3 seasons than any other player in the NHL (Ranks 2nd in assists). Gustav Nyquist scored 23 goals in 28 games after having just 63 NHL games of experience, a feat that has only been accomplished two other times since 1990 (Bure and Ovechkin). Jeff Carter is tied for 13th in the NHL for most goals during the last 3 seasons. Giroux feeding the puck to these two elite goal scorers will be impossible for other teams defenses to stop.

The rest of my forward corps includes two players in Bergeron and Couturier that will be in the Selke Trophy discussion this season (and future seasons as well). Not only can they shut down the opponent's top lines with relative ease, they can also produce in the offensive end of the ice as well. Before a fluke knee injury caused by one of the dirtiest players in the NHL, Hertl was making a case for himself to win the Calder Trophy this season. Grabner, Tarasenko, Soderberg, Zajac and Kruger are great two way players who can play on both the PK and PP units and not look out of place in either role. And Matt Martin can hit people.

Ryan McDonagh is one of the best shutdown defensemen in the NHL. On top of that stellar defensive play, he's also found the time to score 14 goals and 43 points so far this season on a Rangers team that has struggled to score at times. Giordano is having a Norris worthy season while playing on one of the worst teams in the NHL. He consistently plays against the other teams top players and is somehow five points behind the teams leading scorer while playing 11 fewer games.

Coburn, Hamonic, Seidenberg and Boychuk will all benefit greatly from having McDonagh and Giordano to play the toughest minutes against the other teams top players. Coburn and Hamonic are d-men that are called upon to play top minutes on their respective teams due to the lack of depth and skill on those teams, and Seidenberg and Boychuk have proven that they can be integral players on a cup winning team.

Bernier and Harding are two goaltenders that rank in the top 10 in save percentage for goalies that have played more than 20 games this season. It's pretty remarkable to think about when you consider that one is playing while dealing with a debilitating disease, and the other is playing with multiple sclerosis.

Joining :kings in the DQed Group will be :pens

The :pens GM has failed to acknowledge that he screw up during the drafting portion and even after multiple reminders/warnings, he is still incapable of fixing the problem.

At this rate, the "playoffs" might just start at the quarter or semi finals :sarcasm:
