I will take over Caged Great's team if the spot hasn't already been filled.

Probably once 1 person makes a pick we could see a domino effect and get through a bunch of picks. Also probably go quicker during the week.

There's a link in the first post which takes you to the roster thread which shows who everyone has drafted

Hate to be Debbie Downer, but if you can't get through round 1 with the no brainer / star pics at any type of reasonable pace, there's no chance this doesn't unravel before round 3 or 4 are done.

Golf clap for the well meaning effort, though.

Well I don't think transplan99 has been sitting at his computer for the past 24 hours trying to decide which player to pick. Just as long as people check the site then we can get through this. It's not a race either.

Can you post the picks by order as well, like you had it earlier. Instead of rosters (ppl can make those at then end themselves).

Did transplant email his pics to anyone? And maybe whoever is in change should ask people for their top available picks to speed things up a bit.

Im sure people have already Pm'd transplan that its his pick, but I will pm him just to be sure. Also I guess it is cheerio's decision to see who will take over caged greats team. I know PegCityFlames fan said he would have loved to join if he had known earlier and then kipperfan said he wants to take over his team.

Saw that pick coming.

Also if possible could people post the player position and cap hit? Just so I don't have to look it up. I know most players position, but sometimes might get mixed up on who is lw and rw. I can figure out who is D and goalie though.

I just posted my pick in there, with the cap hit as well. I think everyone should put their cap hit, position and where they're going to slot said playe in their lineup.

Evidence of the value of a legit #1C, as they were 8 of the first 10 picks... and many would likely take Joe Thornton over Corey Perry.

C'mon Feaster... pull a rabbit out of your hat!!!

Hey PlayfulGenius, I should be good to make my pick now. Thanks I appreciate it.

Also can we get a time limit as we have been through 2 picks this entire day.

OK, sounds good.

Regarding a time limit, it gets tough because it defeats the purpose of the draft once players are 'assigned' to teams.

I not sure why people can't just send a list as has been suggested so many times. I think everyone thinks they'll be on here at the right time, but chances are, they won't be... just send a list!!
