Im weighing my options right now and trying to figure out what is the best strategy for me. If goalies dont go and its time for me to pick I may wait another round to pick up a goalie, if goalies go and Luongo isn't one of them I may just pick him up. I kind of have an idea on who I want. Just not sure he is the best pick for me at this point, but I dont know how much longer he will last.

think it would make more sense to send it to the person who picks right after me so 2 picks can go right away

After everyone has picked 3 players beerfest(55.729m) has the most cap space left and cheerio(43.02m) has the least.

^ I'm regretting my strategy of trying to find bargains in the first few rounds. Its an especially bad strategy when one considers that we aren't drafting full rosters.

There just aren't enough big-ticket players to spend my capspace on. I feel like I'm going to come in well under the salary cap. I wonder if anyone will have cap issues in the later rounds?

We will see what your D, goaltending and other lines will look like after were done.


If you notice the 1st post on this page the player I was talking about was Pernell-Karl, so now I have to think of plan b.

Well how many players are normally under contract on an NHL team? Right now this draft seems to be a hit and to make it even more realistic we can add a couple more roster spots.
