HF GM Games Fantasy Mock Draft #3 - Discussion V

[EvilDead]

Updated to Garnet Hathaway.

Two sheets are available: one uses 4-3-2-1 weighting, while the other derives average ice time from that weighting for each player and goes from there. After, we all want our best player to count for more than our worst, right?

Feedback appreicated. I am leaning towards average ice time, though.

Please verify your roster in the third tab.

How did I drop to 30?

 

[Peter Griffin]

Moved up from 5th to 3rd/4th, Alex Steen must be PandaApproved.

 

[m0pe]

Just realized the player I was planning on taking here did not play enough regular season games / any playoff games to get credit for a cup win. Oof.

 

[Panda Bear]

Not a homer, but still two runners batted in with my Borowiecki pick.

 

[Panda Bear]

It's all about standard deviations these days. How people pick around you--even if you haven't picked yourself--will affect your score.

 

[Panda Bear]

@Llamamoto49 you're up bud

 

[Joey Moss]

Borowiecki was a fantasy gem this season.

 

[Panda Bear]

Did this change since the last one other than with updated picks?

Updated to Garnet Hathaway?

One sheet uses 4-3-2-1 weighting, other works from that for average ice time. I'll add the unweighted version, which stinks, for comparison.

Edit: Unweighted now up. It's the worst one.

Borowiecki was a fantasy gem this season.

Evander Kane was my boy

 

[Canucks LB]

@Cocoloco

This is out of the blue, but I was going over the rosters and you have the players to have a perfect top line chemistry wise and aren't playing any of them together. I would really adjust your lines to this:

Hyman-Tavares-Bailey
Kreider-Koivu-Necas

Both Hyman/Bailey have played with Tavares in the past and excelled.

She’s out right now, I’ll let her know

 

[Panda Bear]

Anyway, best teams right now according to a battery of statistics are:

1. Pittsburgh Penguins
2. Los Angeles Kings
3. Toronto Maple Leafs
4. Minnesota Wild
5. Arizona Coyotes

Next pass will be positions, assignments and potential chemistry, but all five of those are set up well to really well on that front.

 

[Joey Moss]

Evander Kane was my boy

He got sniped from me this year.. Kane is always a safe pick who you can steal unless you're in a draft with people who know what they're doing.

Svechnikov was my big steal this year, covered everything.

 

[BeLeafing]

Evander Kane was my boy

I ran Ovi/Wilson/Boro for the year. 21-0 in hits

 

[ConnorMcMullet]

Let’s go with Cody Eakin

@ConnorMcMullet

Taken. The draft sheet hasn't updated yet.

Yeah most noobs chase points, I play with a group of friends and most of them are casuals so I load up on guys who fill the stat sheet with hits/pims/sog/blocks and still get decent points.


It’s fun drafting guys who can have a night where they just contribute across the board like the Kane and the Tkachuk bros

 

[ConnorMcMullet]

Let’s go with Casey Cizikas

@ConnorMcMullet

Taken as well.

@SJSharks39 in shambles

This google sheets is horrible and I will not be in another one that uses it. Hopefully Brian Boyle is still available

lol

just wiggle the sheet around first and then search

it's embedded so you gotta fiddle a sec

Are you on a mobile device? I've heard other complaints about it not working but I've had no issues using ctrl-F.

I did and it didn’t show up the first time

I’m glad I finally got Kane. He’s one of many who kept getting away from me every draft

 

[Nucker101]

Just open the sheets in a new tab and bookmark it. Makes life so much easier.

 

[Panda Bear]

Pittsburgh Village Burners

Jake Guentzel-Connor McDavid-Blake Coleman
Tomas Tatar-Carl Soderberg-Justin Williams
Josh Leivo-Nick Cousins-Nicolas Roy
x-x-x

Mark Giordano-Sami Vatanen
Vince Dunn-Justin Faulk
x-Mark Borowiecki

Tuukka Rask
x
​

Now, I hear what you're saying: Soderberg at 2C, Cousins at 3C? The answer is yes, do your research. They're part of excellent lines. Soderberg isn't an ideal 2C, but given how things played out, god damn.

Special notice: if you don't like my team, you don't understand xGoals and quality of possession. Not knowing anything about advanced stats makes your opinion bad in comparison to mine, which is eye test and fancies.

Getting Frolik officially kills the Lucic dream for me...

But had no other option after I realized the other guy was not eligible.

Hagelin-Eller-Frolik should be a great shutdown line.
