How could you cut so many good teams and leave Pheonix !?

 

[Negative Ghostrider]

I want Dallas!!

 

[Trailblazer]

I want Colorado, if that's not possible/available then San Jose.

If you want to take one of the teams I cut, I'll swap them out for Phoenix.
Deal?

I would, but I don't think I have enough time. I'd just hold the thing up.

 

[xander]

rangers please.

 

[TomasPlekanec]

Hope you this time really take part in draft (see prospects draft)

Don't worry, i'll be there this time. I had to send my computer to a repair shop, so couldn't be there for the prospect draft. Now everythig is ok.

 

[rupispupis]

C'mon guys. 5 more GMs needed.

 

[rupispupis]

OK. We're gonna get this thing started.
I took on Ottawa as my second team, and looks like we'll be starting with 18 teams
instead of 22.

If anyone would like to take on a second team (someone who's around a lot), feel free to do so, and new GMs can still sign up.

TORONTO (rinkrat13) IS ON THE CLOCK.

UPDATE: ORBluesFan HAS JOINED AS GM FOR MIN. WE ARE NOW AT 19 TEAMS. rinkrat13 HAS TAKEN SJ (STILL HASN'T PICKED FOR TOR ). 20 TEAMS NOW.

 

[rinkrat13]

The Toronto Maple Leafs are proud to make London, Ontario's Joe Thornton the first overall pick

 

[rupispupis]

PrussianBlue has PMed me and due to his unavailability, asked me to post his selection for him.

STL with the #2 pick selects Roberto Luongo.

Negative Ghostrider is now on the clock.

 

[Negative Ghostrider]

With the 3rd pick of the draft, the [shadow=black]Dallas Stars[/shadow] select LW Ilya Kovalchuk.

 

[monster_bertuzzi]

Vancouver Canucks select Dany Heatley.

 

[Jyssy]

select:
Martin Brodeur

 

[rupispupis]

After a long deliberation (about 2 sec.) the Blackhawks select CL Peter Forsberg.

P.S. I've been asked about trades.
Trades are allowed but there must be an equal # of players and/or picks exchanged so everyone ends up with 20 guys. Example: player for player, or player + pick for player + pick.

OneSpeedOnly is on the clock.
