Weekes Head Posted September 13, 2002 Share Posted September 13, 2002 How does everyone think they drafted? NJay said there was no clearcut winners or losers, but who do you think did well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJayDevil Posted September 13, 2002 Share Posted September 13, 2002 Frankly I think I drafted pretty good. I'm very happy with my team. Got a very solid player in every position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDevs4978 Posted September 13, 2002 Share Posted September 13, 2002 Probably the ones that made the live draft did the best. I didn't do too bad considering I missed the first five picks and my defense is mediocre, to be kind (then again I'm not sure anyone actually has a good one) and I don't have a 50-goal scorer...but I think I did okay, especially considering it's a roto league and I have no experience in that.

NJayDevil Posted September 13, 2002 Share Posted September 13, 2002 How do you think you did RD? I don't even know what team you are (my gut says Zamboni Warriors but idk). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weekes Head Posted September 13, 2002 Author Share Posted September 13, 2002 I'm actually This is not Obscene I think I did pretty well..I like my choices, but my defense could be a little better. I took a few gambles, namely Berard and Dvorak, but I'm confident in my team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RowdyFan42 Posted September 13, 2002 Share Posted September 13, 2002 Something came up at the last minute and I missed the draft. This was disappointing because I participated in the draft for the league I was in last year and thoroughly enjoyed myself. All in all, though, I think I came out with a pretty good team. I've got a solid goalie and a decent backup, and both are sentimental favorites, so I'm happy there. My starting D is excellent; I got my top 3 choices and my fourth was #8. My reserve D is Todd Simpson; I'm still scratching my head over that one. Offense is, well, kinda like the Devils. A bunch of solid, hard-working players but no superstars. I honestly can't say I'm disappointed in any of the choices the auto-draft computer made. I probably would have picked different guys had I been there to do so, but this is a good group from top to bottom. To tell the truth, I'm a bit surprised I did so well on offense. A bit of background: When I did my pre-draft rankings I went through the list by position, and I did D first, then goalies, and then forwards. I had intended to return at a later date to sort everyone out but was never able to find a block of time long enough to do the job right. Of course, I also intended to be present at the draft to make my selections manually, and that didn't happen either. Because of that, I expected my forwards to be a bit crappy, since most people tend to load up on forwards first. Of course, this is all based on the draft results. I've already been offered a trade, but I haven't yet decided if I'll accept it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yeah, I suck Posted September 13, 2002 Share Posted September 13, 2002 I'm just extatic I got the whole Kings first line. Allison-Palffy-Deader. Also I got Gaborik, which after Palffy and Allison, is my best pick. Also 2 other young, developing stars, Briere and Rienprecht. My defense sucks. I got Kubina, Miller, Stevens, Rathje, and Kasper. I am looking for a Blake/Pronger type D-man. Maybe shopping around Stevens. My goalies are O.K. Martion Biron had a great season last year, hopefully he'll continue to improve on Buffalo. Shields is a No No. He is going. I am shopping him around, with a package of players, for a Potvin/Nabakove type goalie. Other then that, I like my team. I got 5 Kings on it, so I'll be happy even if I lose. I picked up Scott Stevens in like the 17th round, I'm surprised noone wanted him.

Derek21 Posted September 13, 2002 Share Posted September 13, 2002 I think I drafted well. Obviously, with the format the way it was, I tried to focus on getting my starters in place first. So, I drafted by position. I was very happy getting Theodore, Kovalev and Lindros the first three rounds. I think I have a balanced D in Ozolinsh, Morris, Svehla and the good Hatcher. When I look at my wings, it could hinge on youngsters Erik Cole and Scott Hartnell. Both have lots of potential. The only thing I dread is the sophomore jinx with Cole. He will be hunted for sure. Also couldn't believe I got Comrie. I have a solid bench. So, if anyone needs to make a deal, I should be able to help. Red, most PIMs will put you in the lead for that category. This is just an appetizer for me. I have a big draft coming up on October 5th the weekend before the season begins. Lots of $$$ involved too Good luck to all participants.
