I had about 4 hours notice for this draft - I received the text during the Falcons-Seahawks game. I liked the idea though because I've never done a league draft in January. I still hate Bettman and Fehr though. This draft should have taken place in October. At least my car wouldn't be covered in snow when I left Boston Pizza.

I picked 1st overall, and the draft was snake format so I picked 10th in round 2.

My picks:
1 (1) - Evgeny Malkin
2 (20) - Mike Smith
3 (21) - Erik Karlsson
4 (40) - Phil Kessel
5 (41) - Joe Thornton
6 (60) - Dustin Byfuglien
7 (61) - Loui Eriksson
8 (80) - Miikka Kiprusoff
9 (81) - Jakub Voracek
10 (100) - Keith Yandle
11 (101) - Carey Price
12 (120) - Teddy Purcell
13 (121) - Mike Ribeiro
14 (140) - Matt Carle
15 (141) - Tomas Fleischmann
16 (160) - David Desharnais
17 (161) - Andy McDonald
18 (180) - Dmitry Kulikov

My final team:

F: Malkin, Kessel, Thornton, Eriksson, Voracek, Purcell, Ribeiro, Fleischmann, Desharnais
D: Karlsson, Byfuglien, Yandle, Carle
G: Smith, Kiprusoff
BN: Price, McDonald, Kulikov

Any thoughts or comments are welcome. I had fun and did this primarily as an escape from serious life but I think there are things to be learned in everything.
