Picked.
I don't have a strong opinion either way about keepers. I can live with whatever everyone else wants, but putting a holding period on a keeper does add administrative work for the pool.

Rookie slot does sound interesting but again I do like the whole draft process so I vote C right now.

A farm player is an intriguing idea. I want to think that over.
In the meantime, I vote for C.

I'm heading out for the weekend, but thanks to the iphone i'm available to draft. I've tried it already, it's a bit awkward with such a small screen. It's manageable but takes few more minutes to get things done.
Taylor Hall baby!!!

A farm team could be interesting; one or two players max. We could slow draft on this forum a few days after the NHL draft.

I picked the first player from LittleM's queue. Next player is also a goalie, not sure if he wants to make that pick since he hasn't posted any instructions. There's no hurry, so we can wait until tomorrow.

I can honestly say that I'm having a tough go of it drafting from the middle positions. I don't seem to be getting any value picks in this position, and no sense of direction whatsoever.

I figured it was a good time to pick up a goon, myself. And if he can get me double digits in goals then it is a bonus!

Dont forget guys, Im awake every hour that most of you are asleep, so if everyone has a couple players in their queue, I can probably get through an entire round overnight.

The draft has slowed down because of some road blocks lately, maybe its time to start a clock. We're pretty far into the draft, so the picks are losing in value. It would be appreciated if managers would post and leave a queue to inform us whats going on. I don't mind waiting, but it's frustrating not knowing for how long.

I remember a previous pool where someone went on a business trip and there were no picks for 4 days. I would hate to see that repeated.

Sorry for the holdup guys. Surprise birthday party last night turned into a late one and a writeoff of a day. Unplanned so I couldn't really post a message or get the queue caught up, hoped it would either keep going slow or that I'd get skipped.
Gonna load up the queue tonight to get me through the rest of the draft hopefully. Will also add Ira as a picker.

It has slowed a bit. If it continues at this pace I'll put the clock on beginning in Rnd 15. If it picks up I'll keep it off. We are still on pace to finish well ahead of the start of the season. I don't believe there are any games in Europe/Japan/Russia this year.
I know we are all anxious for the draft to move quicker, but the season is still 2 weeks away. Pre-season games have begun.
Just remember that Ira is in Aus and can make picks during the evening if you "Q" up.
7 rounds to go...

Probably too early for me to be speculating that Souray will get picked up, but the guy has a booming shot and I can see him getting 40 points from the blue line if he gets a shot somewhere.

PD, you $#$%@#!@, he was my next pick.
I had him pegged for these upcoming rounds in both ATHS and RGFHL. I passed on him in ATHS because I had a hunch you'd be checking picks in both leagues to get a feel of where players are being drafted.
My logic was that if I pick him up in ATHS you'd might pick him up or at least do a bit more digging to think about him in RFGHL. But I guess it's all moot now since you had him on your radar. Now Tax is up in ATHS and I'm guessing I'll lose him in ATHS.
Plan B next.

Ha. Man, I took about 20 minutes just trying to figure out whether he would sign with someone. Leap of faith, in the end.
Looks like you did get him in ATHS. Time for us both to start sending out emails to NHL team presidents, telling them the Oilers are practically giving this guy away...

Yes, phew, I got him in at least one pool. If the rumour holds up that Columbus is interested it would really go a long way in making him a great late round pick-up.
I guess this would be a good time to post injuries/hold outs etc.
Savard - out - concussion
Stajan - out - shoulder
Franzen - will miss some preseason with a leg injury
Souray - not welcome in Edmonton
Mueller - out - concussion
Markov - out til mid November
J. Staal - out 4-6 wks
Burrows - out til December
Salo - always injured
Pronger - questionable for some preseason recovering from off season surgery

Looks like Souray is getting some interest from Cls. Unfortunately I missed the post concussion synodrome on Savard early on. Maybe he'll be good to go soon....

Quick question do we have to fill out our roster spots with the draft. Say do we need to draft 4 d men?

You have to draft a full starting lineup, so you need to draft 5 D-men. That was the rules last season. It's to avoid stacking a position.

I wouldnt touch Souray with a 10-foot pole. Word on the street is that he could be spending the year in the AHL. He even cleared waivers for it.
Yep, its THAT bad.

My 19 round pick is not in the kafenatid db.
here's my pick:
D: Ian White, CGY.
I will substitute him with an obscure placeholder...

Ah hadn't read your last message C.Superfreak and was wondering why I could not find White in the database. Another small thing it says Mason Raymond is with ANA on Kafe but everything else I've checked shows him with Vancouver.

We've got a round and a half to go before we wrap this up. Very nice job everyone. We've managed to get through this without a clock and just a couple of long pauses.
It was nice not having the clock. I hope you all had sufficient time to research and select without being under a last minute/missed picked situation.
I've started entering picks in Yahoo! and will make the league available later in the week.

Teams have been entered into Yahoo!.
I will begin the season on Tuesday. This should give everyone enough time to review their teams.
I chose Tuesday because I feel it gives everyone a bit of notice before the FA vultures swoop in and starting tweaking their teams prior to the season commencing.
In other words if you want a player for Thursday you'll have go through the waiver wire.
Any objections let me know.
