HF GM Games Fantasy Mock Draft #3 - Discussion V

[Panda Bear]

Jenner - Malkin - Meier
Parise - Dubois - Connolly
Foegele - Dach - Steen

This is how I'd set up these guys, personally. Jenner brings a lot to the table in terms of physicality and two-way play. His 30 goal season came mostly from the wing. This setup gives you a better 1-2 punch and puts players in situations they're better suited for.

This is correct.

Andrei Svechnikov - Ryan Strome - Kevin Fiala
Brady Tkachuk - Brian Little - Kailer Yamamoto
Dominik Kubalik - Erik Haula - Filip Zadina

Svech is an RW and Fiala is a LW. Come on, dude.

 

[Joey Moss]

Svech was back and fourth a lot of the year. Carolina seems to switch lines quite a bit.

Fiala also played both wings this year

 

[Joey Moss]

Fiala also played both wings this year

Yea, honestly I think I'd prefer how it is. Svech LW, Fiala RW.

 

[Panda Bear]

Hard challenge. Put players in their best positions.

 

[Llamamoto]

Sorry boys, I was confident Archie would fall. I'll make my pick right away.

 

[hockeynorth]

Dude they both play both wings and both had great years on the wings I have it

 

[McMozesmadness]

Was hoping White would last one more round. Good value here.

Hinostroza was the only guy I had ahead of him.

*starts finding videos for players I like*

*fully expects to have to remove those videos when they get sniped from me*

what's it feel like to have players you like left?

 

[Panda Bear]

Pretty surprised this guy is still available. Colin White

@OB5 I think

dude can your cap even

 

[Joey Moss]

The Kings lines are bugging me. Not just because it's a good mix, but wtf is Maroon doing on 1st line, Saad, 3rd, and Tanev 4th?

 

[Llamamoto]

I have 7.something million for 6 players. I have to go cheap but I can manage.

Having Vasi's a plus, I can get a league min goalie and it won't affect anything.

I may rearrange... but I am a big believer in spreading the wealth and building lines though pairs.

Crosby - Gallagher
Backlund - Voracek
Saad - Staal

Those are three very solid combinations. After that I just plug the best I can. Staal - Saad just compliment each other so well on a shut down line. Both elite defensively.

Maroon while not ideal, has proven he can play alongside elite talent and Tanev has proven he can drive a 4th line. I think that’s where he fits best.

 

[Joey Moss]

Saad/Bratt - Crosby - Gallagher
Bratt/Saad - Backlund - Voracek
Tanev - Staal - Hinostroza
Maroon

Forsure IMO. Tanev and Staal would make a great checking combo.

 

[Makaveli]

@ConnorMcMullet I feel like our match-up is gonna be mad close.

I'd do Bratt with Crosby and Cat, and Saad with Backlund and Voracek. This still allows you to play Saad with a shutdown C.

 

[Blinny]

Dobbersports doesn't organize lines by position.

And that’s where I f***ed up.

can anyone recommend a site that has how often a player plays a specific position.

 

[Panda Bear]

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.

I haven't found one. If I'm ever uncertain, I just do a bunch of research. SBnation websites are a good source.

Huh, I moved up a few spots without making a single pick.

You guys must really suck at drafting.

I honestly use the same site you do, but just look into their handedness or try to guess for the most part.. If I see Boqvist/Keith together I know Keith was on the left. For LH-LH pairings it's a little more difficult though.

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

 

[Makaveli]

It was between Chytil and Donato for me @EvilDead , nice pick
