Strategy? I don't know about you guys, but since the stakes are only bragging rights, I'm going to take a rather different approach with my team. Sure, I'll pick some 'locks' in the early rounds to form the backbone of my squad, but after we get through the superstars I'm going to go with guys I expect breakout years from or who I feel would be sleepers in most drafts. I mean, I'm still going to be drafting the best player on the board, but what I think is the best players on the board and the status quo likely won't go hand in hand. I think it's more fun to gamble on a lot of boom/bust players and see how well your hunches pay off.

Someone start a second, I'd play in two, though I'd hold off in joining the second until everyone who didn't make it in the first had a spot.

Not a big fan of picking big name goalies, but we have a of goalie stats, so I might have to change that...

Better hope the Hawks do well :laugh:

Did you really get Kovy that late? He should be going in the first 2/3 rounds

never mind, im guessing that's not the draft order

Completely agree. Everyone will get a few superstars but often times it is the "sleeper" picks that make the biggest difference

Still 5 spots left. And if everyone who signed up for the second one can PM me with your name in the league that'd be great.
