Part of it was i figured we would have a shorter season (now I'm hoping we get one at all) so I thought rolling the dice on Lupul-Kessel, Toews, Havlat, even Ryan Whitney, is a little less risky over a 48-61 game schedule rather than an 82.

@horrorfan: My 4th D was Ryan Whitney, taken in the 14th round, Tyler Ennis was my last "starting" forward taken in the 16th round.

We have unlimited free agent moves up to our play offs, so that door is always open.

6 teams make the play offs, top 2 get a bye.

What are people's thoughts on Skinner? I think he has the potential to be a monster, but I haven't seen much mention of him on here.

Thanks for all the feedback, at the very least it gave me a bit of hockey to think about.
