The tough thing about drafts like these are when to grab your goalies and d-men.

I still don't have a strategy.........it's more of a gut feeling when it's my pick.
Yeah I am thinking about the same kinds of things. I have Richards, Naslund, and Savard. Those three in theory should be good for about 270-300 points. The thing with goalies is that there are 20 of us, and there are about 20 good goalies in the NHL right now. I think for me, I am just going to select the best player available until I have to start picking defenceman. Only 2-3 defencemen get around the 70 point range and they have all been taken. There are a whole bunch of them in the 30-50 point range, so there will be plenty of selection there I think.
