Does this mean that Daner will be disadvantaged in our league? Jokes aside, I hope he comes back quickly, because he is a great player. But I also hope he takes all his time to recover, so we can been Dane with more ease!

I'm sorry dude, figured it was a solid choice, but would've preferred Letang. Like to have someone that I can watch and see score points on the home team, but seems like my boy Zach is running the table on PIT picks! It's all good though Z

The real question is who do you take from here? It's starting to get kinda thin though still a fair amount of picks left.

Buff didn't play RW at all with the Thrashers but he still had 60 Points as a Dman which is fantastic!

Not gonna say it again, but to get all the players that I wanted I realize that I would have had to had the next 17 picks after round two consecutively!

Who i have left now is:

Datsyuk
Mike Green
D Sedin

Now with Getzlaf gone, my last keeper is a toss-up between:

Ward
Broduer
Sharp

I also was just offered (after my getzlaf trade), His Giroux and 1st rd pick (6th overall) for my D Sedin and my 3rd rd pick.

OK guys, i need to pick Keepers in my other pool for the 19th of August. Lots of trades going on right now. We each keep 4 guys and theres 10 teams. So 40 guys will be kept. I think Fluery, Doughty and Kopitar are being let go. So theres good players around in the first 2 roudns. I also traded my 1st round pick last year in order to make a push and ended up finishing second . I wanted a first round pick for this years upcoming draft. With that said, I just traded Getzlaf and Marleau(wasnt a keeper for me) for a 1st rd pick (2nd overall) and a 3rd rd pick.

Who i have left now is:

Datsyuk
Mike Green
D Sedin

Should i even consider that? I like Giroux to improve this year to at least 80 points and i can't see the Sedins being Art Ross winners again, i have them in around 90 points. I dont know what to do. What do you guys think?

Well here is what I would do. Keep Ward. If 40 guys are gone the next thing people are going to turn to is probably a 2nd goalie, if not a first. So keep 1 goalie.

Next I'd hope that my that 2nd overall pick lands me Fleury. So you are pretty much set on goaltending.

After that I'd trade Sedin for Giroux and hopefully grab Patrick Sharp with that 6th overall pick....unless there is someone STRICKLY better, kinda hard to imagine.

I think Giroux is gonna have a big year as well, and I don't think Daniel Sedin will match his point total from last year...but he will still have a great year. However with the trades and keeping Ward you could potentially end up with Ward, Fleury, Giroux, Sharp...that's 2 #1 gaolies, #1 RW and a #1-2 C/LW. That's pretty good don't you think? Plus Mike Green and Pavel Datsyuk? This coudl all be yours within the first round. So far I like the sound of that team.

let's look at your potential team

C Pavel Datsyuk - 30g 50a +30
RW Claude Giroux - 25g 60a +20
LW Patrick Sharp - 35g 35a +/- even 5 SHG 250+ SOG
D Mike Green - 20g 35a +25
G Marc-Andre Fleury - 45w 2.40gaa or less .915%+ 3 SO
G Cam Ward - 40w 2.50gaa or less .920%+ 5 SO

Yup...damn, nice pick on Heatley. I was hoping very much that nobody would take him. He was who I really wanted for that next pick I have early in the 7th from ogre. Dual winger position and I believe he's going to play his ass off to try and get out of Minnesota. I'd be suprised if come the trade deadline he isn't dealt to a contender. If not he's still the top guy on a line that probably consists of Him, Mikko Koivu, and well I wont say his name because he hasn't been taken yet. Still, that's a damn good line if not as good as the one he played on in SJ. I think he went back to his lazy ways in SJ after some success...I think the trade was a wakeup call and if he ever has any hope to get back on a contender then he needs to show he wants in in Minnesota.

Awesome pick. Ass.

I disagree, Disagree, he's not an amazing pick at this point. He plays like he doesn't care.

Players have come back from this before and had amazing seasons to try and get sent where they want but I don't think he will.

Devin Setoguchi probably gained more from leaving then Heatly since he will be on that top line.

STOP POSTING ON THE DRAFT BOARD UNLESS IT'S A PICK OR TRADE!
