HF GM Games Fantasy Mock Draft #3 - Voting, Round 1

[m0pe]

Overrated (why tf did someone hand them Claude Giroux)

That was probably the difference maker lol. Giroux gave them another high end winger to mitigate the fact that you have amazing wingers

@m0pe I thought I'd at least have your vote! Well now we know having that 1C does matter so uh I won't trade Petey next time

As dumb as it sounds I really don't think anyone won that four-team trade.

I think every team ended up worse off.

 

[Exquisite]

Goat will poll the Devils against the eventual winner on the mainboards poll section. Lock in your votes!

 

[DatsyukianDekes13]

I have to message LT all of my votes for each round since I am unable to vote in the poll, but I will also post my votes here.

Boston over St. Louis
Dallas over Edmonton
Philadelphia over Toronto
Seattle over Arizona
Calgary over Carolina
Colorado over Buffalo
Vancouver over Montreal
Florida over Vegas
Los Angeles over Nashville
Minnesota over NYR
Winnipeg over Columbus
Detroit over Anaheim
Pittsburgh over NYI

 

[DatsyukianDekes13]

Closest for me were Seattle v Arizona, Vancouver v Montreal, and Winnipeg v Columbus

 

[Paralyzer008]

Not that Philly is bad (they're good), but I think @hockeynorth is getting a bit robbed with a lopsided vote instead of a close one at least.

That team is dangerous and has great depth, and before you say "yeah but that 2nd pair sucks with DeKeyser and Subban on it" - Dermott-Barrie is also a walk in the park on the other side.

But my feeling from the 4 way deal was correct - Toronto dealing Pettersson automatically lost him the draft, because even though he clearly won his side of the deal, some voters only care about C and while his Cs are still fine to me, he no longer had that sexy guy people need and Philly has Matthews.

You're right, I feel I won value wise but losing the 1C buried me it seems.

THANK YOU literally this

 

[hockeynorth]

So at 13-5 for Philly, that's majority and Toronto is finished... rip

Vegas done too, they deserved better

 

[Panda Bear]

everyone voting for Seattle is aware that Robert Thomas plays 3C with buttersoft minutes for st louis because he can't handle harder minutes yet, right? that joel edmundson performs worse than ryan murray against all levels of competition?

 

[OB5]

Yep, 10-8 MTL right now.

It will be 10-10 once LB and CL vote

 

[hockeynorth]

@NeoCanuck it was a pleasure, are you in the next draft?

 

[m0pe]

That MTL 3rd line was the small difference for me.

A line of a old playmaker, a depth playmaking forward and a young playmaker. Besides passing the puck around, I don't know what that line will do other than be scored on and not score goals.

Rest of teams was close, but I think that line would get destroyed personally.

 

[hockeynorth]

I'm picking 12 straight centres first next draft.

 

[hockeynorth]

@m0pe tbh I hated yours and Pandas teams.

 

[Panda Bear]
