They got skippedHey guys - I’m ready to make my selection but would like a clarification: Winnipeg made their selections, but wasn’t Toronto supposed to select after Winnipeg? (Vancouver ended up picking after Winnipeg and so I just want to make sure that an error wasn’t made before I select).
They got skipped
Toronto had until 12:15 and didn't make itWas it an autoskip (and so Vancouver was in the right to select), or was it a mistake? (and so Toronto should have made a pick or be given a one hour window before Vancouver selected).
@Joey Moss - can you please clarify?
@RIP Botchford - can you also clarify the situation if you’re logged on?

You really had to take Hartman?Oh ok no problem. I’ll pick.
You really had to take Hartman?
Thank you! Excited to get to voting here shortly.I was looking through the roster page, and I didn't realize how strong Florida and Toronto are.
@PaulBissonnette and @RIP Botchford, both of your teams are definitely among the best in the game. Some real solid picks by both of you.
Interesting! I'm going to give my thoughts on both:I was looking through the roster page, and I didn't realize how strong Florida and Toronto are.

I feel my biggest problems will be if people dislike Vilardi, if people aren't willing to recognize my 2nd pair for the elite defensive group they are, and if they question Gibson this year. To counter all 3 I say, look at Vilardi's history, he produces everywhere and he dominated coming into the NHL and performed as one of the best Centres in the league in his short stint, so playing wing with a great C like Coyle can only help him. Edmundson and Demers are great at shutting down opposition, are experienced playing top 4 and heavyyy shut down minutes, and are ranked very well. John Gibson is a Vezina candidate if he isn't on Anaheim.The voting is going to be close there isn’t really many teams I look at as being weak, most are well balanced. The only part of my roster that I dislike is my top line left wing. Thought I’d be able to nab a better one late in the game, but waited to long.

I don't love Edmundson and Demers as a second pairing, but it's not awful. I love Vilardi though, he's definitely a solid option at 3rd line left wing for me, and Coyle's a big plus.
Gibson's pretty self-explanatory, a top-3 goalie in the league for me.
It's fair, really I had anticipated more balance on the blue line then I have but now I'm gambling on super depth up front. I'm okay with it, we'll see how my blue line turns out but I knew it'd be a read flag. Glad to hear that about Vilardi and Gibson though, I'd been nervous.I don't think either the Vilardi or Gibson (at all) should be an issue. I may not be as high on your D as some...but hey everyone has their own opinions.
Ouuu I had Larsson but thought there were 2 more guys I still have as the other 2. Those Vegas guys grrrThe 3 Cs who were top 10 defensively this year from my first page post that hadn't been taken are now all gone.
Johan Larsson, Pierre-Edouard Bellemare and Chandler Stephenson.
