List is updated... 6 more spots to go
I was thinking last night and depending on the quality of players left when we get to pick 72, we might want to throw in a UFA dispersal draft at the end to add some depth to the rosters. Nothing formal, just claim whatever "x" number of players still available (that way you get to pick your favorite obscure player and not have to burn a spot in your "starting" six).

Why not? I can handle four drafts at once.

MattyC? you missed the all-time players draft, here's your chance!
Locke, this could be a safe draft for you. Radulov has never been a Flame, so there's one less chance of "that kind of pick."

A Calgary Flames forum and we can't scrum up a few more joiners for an All-Time Flames Draft? -- The irony.

I would post this on the main Flames forum to get more interest, but I figure the draft would run smoother if I limited it to people who actually read this part of the OT forum...
So, are you in?!? You know you want to...
If we don't get any more players, should I cap it at 9 or 10?

Maybe set a deadline. Some people may be procrastinating, and you can motivate them to act.

Ok. Since nobody else is jumping in, I'll play to help make up the numbers.

If nobody else joins this weekend, I'll impose a deadline for the last spot and then we can get down to business...

Wait a minute, you already had StrayBullet listed. So we now have 10, with 2 open spots.

Does that also mean he will AK himself twice in the 2nd round?

I'm more than willing to pick the All-Time Worst Flames Team for the integrity of this draft. ....And submit picks late/tardy for every turn.

D'oh... sorry for the confusion
Unless anyone objects, I don't have a problem doing this with only 10 teams... if anyone else wants to join this draft, PLEASE DO SO BY 12:00 pm MST TOMORROW (Monday). After 12:00, I'll use that random draw thingy to set up the draft order and we'll be off and running
P.S. In order to add more depth to the rosters, I'll be adding a "supplemental" draft at the end for UFA's... depending on who's left, each team will be allowed to pick 2-3 more players, so you'll have a chance to add some more grit, toughness, character, leadership, etc without having to put him in your starting 6. I said this would only be a 6 round "mini" draft so I'm thinking these supplemental picks will be first come, first served, hopefully when UFA season opens at a mutually agreed upon time.

Sign-up is now CLOSED... thanks to those who have agreed to participate. We'll go ahead with 10 teams, with the top 8 (determined by vote or otherwise) making the playoffs. I'll put together a separate draft thread shortly; in the meantime, here is the draft order, determined by random draw:

As an aside, I was hoping I didn't get the first overall pick so that it didn't look like I rigged the whole draft. Woohoo, lucky me
