Question for your main league: why the time change?
Oh well, it was impressive that he played as well as he did after being away for that long.You might as well pick up Teslak. He'll do as much good for your team as anyone else you can find.
I guess I may as well drop him then...I think I'll pick up an Islander, they're supposed to be good this year, right?
That is probably true, though you know that there are guys that are FA now that will end up being very productive this year. There are breakout players every year.
). It is a keeper league, where I'm filling in for a guy that didn't want to play this year, so I inherited his team. Lets just say that he had a terrible team for me to poach 4 keepers from. That's not too bad of a roster, especially if +/- is a stat category.Throw Kessel on the IR ASAP (I'm waiting on this in one of my leagues too...) and pick up another decent forward and I'd say you're set.In the middle of the night last night another league that I'm in did it's autodraft (no option for me to make my own picks
The 4 keepers I chose were: (yes, these were his 4 best players)
Daniel Briere, F
Derek Roy, F
Brian Campbell, D
Ryan Miller, G
The rest of the team I ended up with is:
Rick Nash, F
Nicklas Backstrom, F
Patrick Marleau, F
Blake Wheeler, F
Travis Zajac, F
Milan Michalek, F
David Clarkson, F
Ryane Clowe, F
Michael Frolik, F
Alex Tanguay, F
Andrei Kostitsyn, F
Phil Kessel, F
Mike Green, D
Pavel Kubina, D
Joni Pitkanen, D
Ville Koistinen, D
Mathieu Schneider, D
Jonas Hiller, G
Steve Mason, G
I think I'm set in goal with Miller, Hiller and Mason. Forwards are OK, could be better, but I won't complain. My D is terrible after the top 3 guys, I've got waiver claims in to try to get Jovanovski and Tyutin to try to improve my D.
I have Kessel on the IR already, but 2 of my chitty d-men are also out right now. I have 3 waiver claims in, that won't be processed until Friday. I had the last pick, so I get the 1st waiver claim. I have to start 6 d-men, and I only have 6, so since 2 are out, I really need to add some there.
I have another draft tonight...8 team league, so there may actually be some players around in the last few rounds.
) I got some hella-goalies: Marty, Nabby, and Hiller. But after that......sheesh. I mean, obviously I got some great players, but I expected 12 teams drafting, so if I knew then what I know now.....I wouldn't have bothered pre-ranking anyone but goalies. League might just fold up anyways since 6 teams is weak.
Too many Red Wings'Drafted 3rd...
