There you go . when you hit a grand slam like that in the 5th round it makes all the misses. not hurt as bad . We have a fifth from a few years ago like that Possler . He is still in Europe.
We have had a ton of first round misses.

- Maximum Signal


True that. A bunch still unproven from 3 years ago too.

So.

I'm not sifting through 15 pages of comments from Ek's thread, most of which I'm sure would anger me.

Nichushkin for Myers.

Would you?

I'm a solid "yes".

I wanted Darcy to draft him over Risto, so my answer is also a 'solid yes'.

I think Hamonic is hurt. Other than that, looks pretty good. I have a lot of the same guys.

I did, too.

I know I'm doing to stereotypical "let's put the Russians together", but he and Grigo could have the potential to be deadly.

I wasn't sure if Hamonic was the right play, but hopefully that doesn't hurt me too much. Last night was huge for me. I ended up winning by 95 with all the fights in the ANA/SJ game.

So far I am 1 in the division and 4 overall. I'm pretty pleased.

I should have taken Beleskey out too, but he could get back with Perry and Getz depending on when Heatley comes back.

A future top 6 that would include Nich, Grigs, Armia, Reinhart, Ennis and Eichel would be fun.

He's DTD so you could get something from him before the week is over. This is the point that I start figuring out what low cost guys are really solid. They tend to be my go-to's and then I plug in the high price guys around them. I think Saad is going to be a regular in my lineup along with Toffoli.

I'd love McDavid, but at the same time, I love the chip that Eichel has on his shoulder because of everyone saying that McDavid is going to go #1. That added motivation can go a long way for some guys.

I won't be disappointed as long as we get 1 of them.

Me either, but McDavid has the "everybody wants him, and we got him" factor.

This is my first year focusing on the process as a whole. I didn't look at it more than once last year. I am happy with the results thus far. It's hard to argue the success of "The 70s Line," Getz/Perry and Seguin/Benn. It's worth the investment methinks. Saad is a great play at his salary too.

Toronto no longer has a crackhead for a Mayor. Things are looking up. They will win.

Depends how you look at it . Would you wanna be Mayor of that town without drugs and alcohol ? Be in the spotlight every night?

Damn I liked him. wished he was into a play more than he was. He played to much like i'll wait here and tried to score. Needed to play the slot more to see what talent he has.
