Default Draft Tonight - Live blow by blow

I don't know if anyone cares to see this, but thought I'd try it and see how much interest it garners.
I have a draft set for 8:45pm ET.
Keeper League, Keep 12, (4C, 8W, 6D, 2G, 4BN, 2IR. 4 reserve/prospects). Competition are mostly guys who contribute to the Forecaster. I'm the defending champ (yay) and I think I can repeat. I used Fantasy Hockey Geek's adjustments to my projections for my list.

My keepers:
C - Kopitar, Giroux
W - Benn (C), Eriksson, Neal, St.Louis
D - Del Zotto, Letang, Green
G - Smith, Anderson, Dubnyk


My picks:
23 - Fleischmann
26 - Enstrom
28 - Fowler
48 - Dupuis
50 - Hemsky
54 - Little
56 - Atkinson
70 - Ellis
98 - Boedker
112 - traded this pick for an equal pick next year (8th round)
126 - Vermette
140 - Tlusty
154 - Malone
168 - Tangradi
175 - Coburn
182 - Conacher


As I've noted in the forum several times, I had a good 20 keepers but managed to trade most of them for draft picks rather than drop them. Including Kovalchuk and E.Staal. At the keeper deadline I traded Johansen and Kuznetsov for a 12th and a 13th rounder in 2013.

Anyway, chat it up, I'll do my best to stay on top of the action here...

I might be in the minority here but I'd follow along.

I think winger.

Draft delayed until 8:55 now, sorry. Since I pick 23rd I can twiddle my thumbs...

65 players added to my queue. Top 8 Skaters are probably:
Yakupov
Vanek
Wheeler
Johnson
Elias
Campbell
Kunitz
Fleischmann

But since I have three goalies I don't need to worry about them. Not so with the other guys. Goalies all go first two rounds. Available:
Thomas, Elliott, Theodore, Vokoun, Nabokov, Neuvirth, Reimer, Emery, Khabibulin, Lindback

drafted, in order:

Yakupov
Galchenyuk
Vanek
Havlat? (is he drunk?) weird pick there.
Gaudreau (he's rebuilding, but still...not the time for this pick)
Forsberg
Zajac
J.Johnson
Campbell
Silfverberg

10 picks in and Wheeler is still free. I remember last year wanting Jamie Benn, and was shocked that he slipped to me. Let's see if lightning strikes twice.

I'll wait for more picks to come in before passing too many judgements but the Gaudreau pick was definitely bad. Also not a fan of Forsberg going before Grigorenko but that might be a personal preference.
