It's just because I pick just before/after him, and because I can be here all day if need be.

And because I'm super hot.

And you're French.

And not Stefan.

Review time:

LW:
Pavel Datsyuk (C)
Ryan Clowe (RW)
Jamie Benn
Andy McDonald (C)
Chris Kunitz

C:
Nicklas Bäckström
Vincent Lecavalier
Tomas Plekanec
Stephen Weiss

RW:
Martin St. Louis
Marian Gaborik
Chris Stewart
Devin Setoguchi

D:
Mike Green
Lubomir Visnovsky
Mark Giordano
Ryan Whitney
Kevin Shattenkirk
Eric Johnson
Travis Hamonic

G:
Tomas Vokoun
Carey Price
Martin Brodeur

I feel like I'm hoping for way too many bounceback seasons (Datsyuk, Bäckström, Green, Gaborik, Stewart) or repeats of seasons they're unlikely to match (St. Louis, Price, Visnovsky).

A bit low on goal scorers, potentially damaging to my G and SOG categories. Not very high on PIMs either.

I really like my goalies and blueline, not too happy about my forward group. AND I SHOULD HAVE PICKED MALKIN INSTEAD OF ST LOUIS!

I am actually impressed we were able to get the draft done (one day before the season starts no less

). Nicely done, everyone.

No one's fucking with me this year. GUARANTEED.

Yeah, I definitely didn't think it could be done. Great job, everybody.

+1

When I get home I'll enter the players drafted last night/today and get the season started. Everybody check yahoo tomorrow to set your lines. I'll post here when everything is done on my end.

Good luck chumps, you're all gonna need it.

I'm going to name my first seven babies after you guys. Love :wub:

Cool. Remember, Tompa is "short" for Tomas. It's an awesome name though, so I don't think you'll mind having two kids with the same name :)

DevotedWalnut · **Posted:** Wed Oct 05, 2011 9:37 pm

Same name, different spelling.

No problem. The only name I have trouble with is "emperorblackdoom". I mean, really, poor kid.

Good luck to everyone, for me no pressure this season. I'm here to learn and be stronger next season. My primary objective is to avoid ridicule, my secondary objective is to qualify for the playoffs and, finally, my optional objective is obviously to destroy you all.

EBD works just fine though. It is smooth and snappy, who cares if it isn't a word?

Lineup on Yahoo is posted. Set your rosters, put any injured guys on IR and pick up some replacements :)

I'm nervous as a maid on her wedding night.

Shouldn't be. You ended up with an objectively stronger team than I did, unless your kids like Couture and Skinner mysteriously slump.

Metastable To Chaos · **Posted:** Thu Oct 06, 2011 7:16 pm

Sophomore slump is not uncommon.

You are kind, but there are many issues with my team. Too many kids yes (you can add Subban to the list...), but also my late picks were poor, I didn't leverage my IR slots to pick big names as some of you guys did, and I shouldn't have picked 7Ds. And your recent move (picking a 4th goalie) worries me a bit. :wink:

Yeah, Dev warned me about it... I'm a pedo, I can't help picking youngsters. :sad:

That explains why you cropped out that particular section of that album cover for your avatar.
