When do you decide how many rounds there will be? I'm thinking about this if the list of players I'd need to create isn't too huge.So far, potentially 22 participants x 15 rounds is well over 300 players listed. That's a lot.

20 X 11 = 220.

250 should be more than enough. We can use the TSN list if any list proves to be too short?

That I can do. Put me down. Slava will make my picks for me. He only wants 10% of my winnings, and I'm good with that.

I'm not going to lie to you, the 'statute of limitations' was a lie.

All of his picks will be Oilers and potentially an Eskimo or two thrown in as well.
I tried to tell him that touchdowns don't count!

I'm gonna try to slip Ricky Ray in as my last-round, sleeper pick.

Well, I'm gonna send my list to troutman for starters. Slava already has to worry about two teams. If you aren't able to do it troutman I'd ask that you pass it on to Rhettzky, Locke, Windom...etc? I'll be back in town soon and will gladly show my appreciation by buying a round or two for y'all.

Someone please throw a peanut in Aeneas' general direction for me.

I can still do yours if you want, its not a problem to pick 3 times out of about 20.

That's Slava's strategy. He recruits guys smarter than him to send him their lists so he doesn't have to build his own. Pretty clever, if you ask me.

Glad to help. Already have my list, so I won't need to poach your picks.

For those of you either on the CP slopitch team or former members, I received the low down on the mysterious disappearance of our Sunday night waitress...

It's all very good.

I see Abbotsford will be on the TV tomorrow playing Chicago Wolves. Hopefully the draft is nearly over or ended by the 2000 start time.

That will be lots if your list, like mine, contains no Oilers or Canucks. Those guys will go fast to troutman, WindomURL, and SebC.

Well seeing how my team was an injury magnet last year I may only take Oilers and Canucks this year.

Sorry, guys, I though the draft was next week. I can't be ready for tomorrow. Thanks, Slava, for agreeing to make my picks. Have fun.

Yeah, I might have my list ready by tomorrow either. Going to try and get it done tomorrow afternoon, but not 100% confident I'll have the time. Sorry for bailing on you guys if I can't get it done by then.

I think some of you people are putting way too much work into it.

Usually by the third round Aeneas, FKA and I are 3 schooners deep and picking KHL players.

Okay, maybe the last part is only me....
