7th, 6th, 5th, and 4th for 1st overall works every time.

You play with GM settings on easy? I have to put them on the hardest setting just to even have it remain fair as possible. i dont even go after the 1st overall anymore, just stock up on huge dmen, offensive and defensive, and goalies the 1st two drafts, then add Pwf wingers and 1st and 2nd line centers the following draft, within 2/3 seasons, despite what the ranking is for the offensive, defense and goalies, it is pretty much just a wash from then on out.

Don't think that they will be giving him away though.

You may be right, but I can't see how Anaheim does that deal.

- Ultimate Cyberhabs



I never suggested it was a great deal for Anaheim. But apparently it takes an arm and a leg to move up in the draft now. So if you're throwing in an extra pick, albeit a somewhat mediocre prospect and a filler D man as well I didn't think it was too far fetched, if you take into account the fact that they've got to move a contract.

Regardless, I'd prefer they hold on to #3 anyways.

Trying to figure things out. My wife's schedule keeps changing which has made booking stuff nearly impossible. I am off for the entire month of July so I have some flexibility.

How have you and Nessa been?

Pretty good. Getting used to the heat.

Me too. If they move any picks, it will be some of the 2nd rounders from this year and next IMO.

That's why we only hear of teams wanting to move down.

Yeah, so since it isnt a good deal for Anaheim why would they do it again? They have to move a contract, or they can like not sign Selanne. Not saying Ryan wont be moved, but before a GM takes that bs trade offer they will bury a contract or be buying someone out before considering that line of crap. Ryan wont be coming cheap, to any team, contract, bs or otherwise. it's gonna cost to acquire him.

Almost every (frank)ing day (t' storm as we speak), and on the days it's not, the wind is blowing a (frank)ing hundred miles an hour. I think we've cracked 20 degrees once so far

Boohoo, 45 here tomorrow with Humidity. Unless we get this imaginary storm that doesn't seem to actually exist. Apparently you guys use them all up.
