Goalienut's Prospect Draft Thread

[djscooter]

sure thing, burinsyear logged on and logged off and didint make his pick

 

[a8thegreat]

I've been thinking, When it comes to my turn I will draft for Fighter. Then he doesn't just get second/third round players with his first rounder. He also told us he would be gone rather than just leave us waiting. He doesn't get his #9 pick because he left but he doesn't get a 2nd rounder because he told us. Everyone OK with that?

Are you going to draft for yourself as well? If not then it is not fair to you.

 

[goalienut]

I will draft for myself too.

 

[a8thegreat]

let fun begin

 

[Bruinsyear]

OK guys I am back. Give me 10 mins to scope some stuff over.

 

[Bruinsyear]

Edmonton picks:

Thomas Vanek


The kid has a good combination of size, skill and grit. He is a future power foward in the NHL with a 6'2" 210 lb frame at the age of 21. He has a laser of a shot and can dig hard in the corners. He needs to work on increasing his work ethic and defensive zone coverage in order to make the next step.

Um, thanks, but no thanks.

 

[a8thegreat]

anyone PM AnThGrt?

 

[goalienut]

[a8thegreat]

I was really hoping to pick tonight. If I don't get to pick by wednesday then i might miss my chance cuz I work late that day.

 

[Bruinsyear]

anyone PM AnThGrt?

I PMed him about 15 minutes after I made my pick.

 

[a8thegreat]

Los Angeles-- AnThGrt-7:18 AM 4/26

looks like his time is up, so next person can pick right?

 

[Bruinsyear]

Vancouver-- Morrison_Rulz-7:18 PM 4/26

On Deck-meaning they can pick whenever they come on
Fighter
AnThGrt

 

[Crosby=Gretzky]

And there goes my pick! I don't think he should still be considerd a prospect but according to HF they moved him back. He would have been my first pick because we have seen what he can do at the NHL level already.

Great pick.

Thanks.
This is the third time someone says "Great pick". And I've only picked three players ever in the Mock Drafts I've been in.

 

[Bruinsyear]

This draft pace really needs to pick up, this is ridiculous.

 

[Corvus Corax]

its gone a l;ittle past ridiculous. this long and we are barely past the 1/2 way mark of the first round. I am thinking about giving up on this if all the rounds will be like this

The are proud to select C Gilbert Brule.

The are proud to select C Gilbert Brule.

in my opinion I think you just got the steal of the dradt so far getting him at number 11

 

[goalienut]

Fighter and The Anahiem Mighty Ducks will hopefully be proud to select:
Rob Schremp

 

[goalienut]

The Colorado Avalanche select, from the Rochester Americans, Goaltender, Winner of the blah, blah, blah-
Ryan Miller

I disagree, maybe if this was the 05 draft class only. But we are talking about all prospects and some of them are a little more proven at higher levels.

He's a good pick but I wouldn't go as far as steal of the draft.

 

[Corvus Corax]

In The First Round, The Are Proud To Select. From Albany of the AHL, C Zach Parise.
