HC-IR Fantasy Keeper League Discussion Thread [Draft Underway]

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

Select forward Eric Fehr.

Awesome pick.

 

[Backstrom #19]

Awesome pick.

He's a 3rd line winger making 2+ million dollars and he's had 3 shoulder surgery's in the past 2 off-seasons...I love Eric Fehr but he can't stay healthy and he's behind Semin and Knuble on the Caps depth chart.

 

[IslesRock4]

Caps fans - 3
Brian Boyle - 0

Not to mention we've been waiting like 5 years for him to break out.

I honestly think he's damaged goods all in all.

Yeah that full year of hockey he missed with the mysterious back/hip injury really screwed up his development.

If he ever gets healthy and gets minutes as a 2nd liner, he could score 25+ goals, but I just don't see it happening.

Maybe somewhere else. I can't see him working out in DC.

 

[flyguy]

I somehow managed to draft 6 right handed d-men.

 

[TLinden]

Not usually one to talk trade in the midst of a draft but we aren't too pleased with our defense, willing to make a move to acquire an already drafted Dman of high calibre. PM me if interested.

Players I'd consider moving for the right price: Ondrei Pavelec, Teddy Purcell, Michael Ryder, Ray Whitney, Joe Pavelski, Chris Stewart (doubtful)

 

[Nuckles]

Troy Brouwer

I had an eye on him for a while.

 

[IslesRock4]

Yeah, you don't have enough powerforwards Nuckles.

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

I hate you all.

Fehr is still a good pick at this point.

 

[Nuckles]

Yeah, you don't have enough powerforwards Nuckles.

I only have Backes, Clowe, Hartnell, Downie, Ott, and Pacioretty.


Brouwer has the potential for 40 points and 50 PIM.

 

[Nuckles]

I hate you all.

Fehr is still a good pick at this point.

Brouwer would have been a much better pick.

 

[YouGotAStuGoing]

I had an eye on him for a while.

So did I. Totally intended on picking him last night, but for some unknown reason my fingers typed 'Chris Kelly'. So relieved he was still available.

 

[The Instigator]

Does RR have a list? Or is he skipped, cause it should be my pick.

 

[New York RKY]

Sorry I missed my pick.

I was online but I am having computer trouble and am not sure why it keeps shutting off.

I was trying to get a video to work so I wasn't able to get on HF.

 

[The Instigator]

That's risky MD. Like...shaving your balls with a machete risky.

 

[IslesRock4]

That's risky MD. Like...shaving your balls with a machete risky.

Nothing is risky at this point.

 

[The Instigator]

It's still risky, it's just no longer stupid.

 

[TLinden]

How the hell is it risky? He's already got his 6 keepers he'll want for next season, and he gets a #1 goaltender for atleast another year.

 

[The Instigator]

Varlamov? We're talking about the same guy?

 

[TLinden]

My bad, I thought you were calling Bingo's Brodeur pick risky.

Yes, Varly is risky

 

[The Instigator]

Haha thought so. I agree with Brodeur. Shrewd move.
