Why?
Because you picked him, and that's what happens to all your stars.

I'm going to call the worst pick of the draft right now as Phaneuf...unless there are points for hits and bad interviews. no7 can thank you for taking the heat off of him.

Please explain to me how taking Hiller AFTER Varlamov is the worst goalie pick? And Pekka Rinne right after? Do I want to be stuck with Toskala and Theodore on my 2nd goalie slot like most of you? Nope.

Yea, Jeff Carter and his 46 goals really blow.

Also, I didn't think the Hillier pick was bad...

But taking Phaneuf, after you go for Mike Green....well hey it's your team...I'm just saying.

Agreed on Phaneuf. Not even in the top 5 D in my opinion, let alone the 2nd one taken and in the 3rd round.

Yea, everyone has their own strategy. I didn't intend on taking either of them but I never thought either would slip as far as they did so to me I had no choice. I guess everyone values players differently. Jeff Carter no doubt is awesome. I do think you are underrating Hiller very much, he's an awesome goalie on a really good up and coming team. Just my 2 cents.

so i guess we arnt playing by the rules now??

i can see 3 edited posts - one containing an actual draft pick
and then a violation of names of players who haven't been drafted yet

last i checked, all of these rules were agreed upon before the draft had started and now have been broken.

i demand repercussions.

first off...calm down nancy.

- the person who edited their draft pick post was spoken too immediately already by me and reminded of the rule. It will not happen in the future.
- any other post that isn't a draft pick can be edited...just not your post containing your pick , so the other 2 posts you are referring to don't matter
- I am speaking to Nick right now and reminding him about not mentioning names. It will not happen going forward either.

I'm going to have to go with another guy that had a really bad, uncharacteristic year last year. Having a career GAA of 2.26, I think last year was a fluke.

So I'll take : G - Marty Turco

Yeah, I'm posting again. Work is boring at 4 in the morning.

I'm just curious why the keeper rules are so Nazi in this league. In the others we dont have set numbers per position we can keep.

I would rather keep another forward than some crappy D, but I'm guessing Nick wrote the rules. Stop failing Nick. If he didn't then I have no complaints.

Anyways, not asking for a rule change, just wondering why it's done this way.

Also, I love Byron's avatar.

I completely agree with Larry (and if you find my first post in this thread, you'd see that I already highlighted this point). Having rules on which players you can keep is nazi and it takes away from peoples abilities to structure their teams the way they'd like. It's probably too late for a rule change but I'd be down for opening it up, and I'd also like to add more keepers if at all possible.
