I agree that his goal against the Russkies in 72 had a lot to due with his fame. I seem to remember reading some where about Phil Esposito making coments on how Henderson milked his fame for all it was worth. Speaking engagements and such.

I wouldn't say"a lot". First, I think he's a bit of a grammar Nazi and you would incur his wrath. Second, it isn't like he has a lot of hair...I mean, much hair.

I really don't know what to do now. Only a couple of rounds left.

Should we just have a freeforall?

we have 4 people AK'd right now (one has been AK'd for 5 rounds)

free for all


and if people want me to fill out the rest of their teams because they can't think of anyone, I could do that, just ask...

Chris Lindberg, Rico Fata, David Hale, Cale Hulse, Tommy Albelin, Doug Dadswell, Don Hay, Shark Tank...that would complete someone's full roster

Okay, I didn't say I'd do a good job....

perhaps Czure, Habernac, Aeneas (who has too many centers ) and Windom could free for all one each so we all have two left, then Girly can throw it open as a total free for all after that.

just a thought.

Players are only too happy to switch positions to play on my team.

Good idea cyclone, I will then draft RW Bill Guerin.


Bill Guerin has played for the Dallas Stars, the Boston Bruins, the Edmonton Oilers, the St. Louis Blues, the San Jose Sharks, the New Jersey Devils, the New York Islanders, and was traded to the Pittsburgh Penguins on March 4th 2009 just before the 3:00pm trade deadline. He has won a Stanley Cup with New Jersey in 1995, the World Cup in 1996, a silver medal with Team USA at the 2002 Winter Olympics and was named MVP for the 2001 All-Star game. He was drafted in 1989 in the 1st round (5th overall) by the Devils.
After a 41-goal season in 2001–02, as a free-agent, he left the Bruins and signed a 5-year contract with the Dallas Stars.[1] Guerin performed below expectations during his tenure with the Stars. After a disappointing season in 2005–06 where he notched only 40 points, Dallas decided to buy out the remainder of his contract. The conditions of buyouts in the NHL meant that the Stars would pay him 2/3 of the remaining salary on his contract spread out over twice as many years. This meant $6.7 million over one year became $4.4 million over 2 years.
He became an unrestricted free agent, and on July 3, 2006, he signed a one-year $2 million dollar deal with the St Louis Blues.[2] Playing on a line with former Oiler teammate Doug Weight, Bill revived his career, easily eclipsing his disappointing goal-scoring mark from the 2005–06 season. He was named to the 2007 All-Star game (hosted by the Dallas Stars) to represent the Blues. Despite numerous criticisms of his play during his time as a Star, Guerin received a standing ovation from the Dallas faithful in recognition as his status as a long time fan favorite.
On February 2, 2007, Guerin became the 214th NHL player to play in 1,000 games.[3]
On February 27, 2007, Guerin was traded to the San Jose Sharks.[4] for Ville Nieminen, prospect Jay Barriball, and a conditional first-round pick (Either New Jersey's in 2007 or San Jose's in 2008).
On July 5, 2007, Guerin signed a two-year contract with the New York Islanders.[5] On July 9, 2007, Guerin was named captain of the New York Islanders, making him the 11th captain in Islanders history.[6]

Those that have quit should be given anyone of those players

So is this a free-for-all or what?

Im not entirely sure, but Aeneas' pick can actually be considered on time, as its reasonable now to say that windom was AK'd

I'd say that we have to wait for Girly SPorts to give us the go ahead before we free for all. Windom is added to the AK'd list, so I guess Habby could go ahead, then Czurex2, and so on until Girly says otherwise.
