Damn! Was hoping he might tumble to me and my freshly acquired 18th pick - good choice!

With the 16th overall pick Rotopocalypse Now! selects Vladislav Namestnikov (C) Tampa Bay. Trusting Yzerman's hockey acumen (and rave comments on this kid) on this one.

Considered him heavily myself. Huge boom/bust potential but isn't that what fantasy hockey is all about? Solid pick.

Definitely a good pick Dean and I agree with you he could have gone earlier and it was between him or Hamilton when I made my pick and I changed to Hamilton at the last minute.

I was holding off waiting to see if Chinny was ready to jump in with his pick at #17 (9:00) or what was happening with trade talks, but I'm ready sooo...

With the #18 pick Cleveland Barons select Alexander Khokhlachev from the Stanley Cup Champion Boston Bruins.
