Round by Round Notes:
Round 13 - Grab my ears, baby. Both MARTINs went in this round... Havlat & Hanzal (he's so hot right now). I love both picks.
Round 14 - Picks were all over the place in this round like a bad shag. Teams seemed to be identifying category need: Hits, PIM, SOG. Derek Roy was probably the nicest steal.
Round 15 - The RISKiest round of the entire draft, IMO. This could be the round were somebody's risk wins them the championship.
Round 16 - My favourite round of the entire draft. I thought just about everybody made some really smart, smart picks. Lots of value here, we all got our heads screwed back on.
Round 17 - I really like (my) Brayden Schenn pick in this round. I think he'll be a nice player this year.
Round 18 - Some very nice defensemen with good potential taken in this round. Jake Gardiner was probably my favourite of the bunch. Reimer's gone streaking before, can he do it again?

Hello.

FAAB

This is like a silent auction for waivers. You get $100. When you win you reset your priority number to the bottom of the list. These priority numbers determine tie breakers.

Weekly Rosters

The deadline for this league is Friday. So...Thursday at 11:59pm is the last moment to set your roster for the next 7 days. I believe even the commish cant make adjustments to the rosters after the deadline.


I reserve the right to be wrong but I think that is correct.

Round by Round Notes:
Round 19 - Defensemen value seemed to be picking later in the draft. Ryan Ellis & Matt Niskanen both looked like very nice picks in this round.
Round 20 - I think people's heads started to explode in this round - as most of us shot in the dark for a high-risk, high reward. The Marc Staal & Mark Stuart picks were my faves.
Round 21 - Khabibulin, Glencross, and Couturier all went in this round - potentially all undervalued players.
Round 22 - This was a very boring round. That's all I have to say about that.
Round 23 - Tim Thomas! Chris Pronger! I love the "you never know" picks. (In fact, I had planned to take Thomas in Round 24). Nice scoops on Henrique & Zidlicky here.
Round 24 - Lots of goonery here, with perhaps Roman Josi being a terrific late value pick.
Round 25 - More goonery to end the draft and nothing like an Enigma to end it all... Ville Leino!

Here<s the AxeHoles roster

1) Tuuka Rask (G)
2) Dustin Byfuglien (D, RW)
3) Rick Nash (LW)
4) Jonas Hiller (G)
5) Dan Boyle (D)
6) Evander Kane (LW)
7) Shane Doan (LW,RW)
8) Johan Franzen (LW, RW)
9) James Wisniewski (D)
10) Patrik Elias (C, LW)
11) Jose Theodore (G)
12) Tomas Plekanec (C)
13) Martin Hanzal (C)
14) Joni Pitkanen (D)
15) Derick Brassard (C)
16) Justin Faulk (D)
17) Johnny Boychuk (D)
18) Alex Steen (C,LW)
19) Brad Boyes (C, RW)
20) Artem Anisimov (C, LW)
21) David Legwand (C)
22) Chad Larose (LW,RW)
23) Cody Franson (D)
24) Brandon Prust (LW)
25) Michael Frolik (C, RW)

I knew from the start I was going hard after goalies and that's what I did. Having the 11 pick I was afraid my top four (Rinne, Rask, Lundqvist, Quick) would be all gone. So I was more than happy to lay my hands on Rask. in the 4th round I was looking at Kiprusoff who got picked right under my nose. I went with Hiller instead.

Believe it or not Big Buff (2nd pick) still has RW eligibility, what a nice bonus in a league that counts hits and PIM.

Having picked my first center in the 12 round I have no big name at that position and I may be hurting a bit here. Still all my centers have a shot at being the #1 on their respective team (Plekanec, Hanzal, Brassard, Legwand).

I lost my connection twice during the draft so I ended up with four players being auto picked. Brassard was one of them and his bad +/- forced me to compensate with my following picks (Boychuk, Steen, Anisimov, Legwand) even if better players were available. For the record I wanted McDonald at Brassard spot

I was late in the draft when I started filling my RW spots but I like Boyes a lot. The Islanders have a good track record with reclamation projects (think Moulson, Parenteau) and if Boyes can have a crack at that 1st line spot then he could be a nice steal.

I absolutely loved this part of your draft.
Great value in Plek & Hanzal. Two players you scooped from me... I regret not going harder after both.

Post draft analysis:

Interesting draft. Wasn't expecting a choice between Giroux and Ovechkin at 5th overall... But took Giroux as Ovies bounce back isn't a sure thing. Also with the D-man run, I couldn't believe how many top guys slid down the draft, and I couldn't help myself. As a result my D corps aren't going to win any scoring awards, but I'm hoping they are "truculent" enough to fill some other cats.

Favorite Pick:

Giroux was a surprise, but I like my consecutive Spezza, Marleau, and Thornton picks in rounds 5 through 7. Grandlund also, but I might have reached...

A Pick I Regret:

I've already dropped Smith-Pelly, but it's hard to regret my last pick. So I'll say I might regret taking Giroux over Ovie.

A Player I Wanted:

Sharp and Backes. Both have been staples on all my teams for many moons, can't believe they went so early (9th and 18th)!

Draft Day Risers:

See above, along with about 20 defenseman.

The Fallers:

No. 1 scoring center men were plentiful in rounds 5 through 8.

The Best and Worst Teams:

IMO, a lot of GM's put too much emphasis on multi-cat/grinders and D, with big time offense producers on the board. With 5 of the 7 forward cats directly related to offense (G, A, +\-, PPP, and SOG), time will tell how this pans out, especially in a shortened season. In short, how could I say any team is better then mine?
