Old business from last year:

Roster positions to draft:
3 C, 3 LW, 3 RW, 5 D, 1 Util, 2 G, 4 bench.
Miscellaenous positions:
1 IR position for IR players
1 IR+ position for day to day, and out type players.

It doesn't look like we will be starting the draft any time soon, since we still need some teams to declare their keepers, but I am out for the afternoon and won't be able to pick until later this evening.

Trade announcement between Ira and C.SuperFreak
Ira acquires Sid Crosby
C.SuperFreak acquires John Tavares

I still have to input the keepers into Drafttime. I'll try and get things sorted for tomorrow morning.

Waiting on Taxman, Perm Dude and myself to declare.

WOW. Blockbuster trade, well done guys. I'd be interested in the rationale - seems a bit lateral for both teams.

TD, It was an opportunity arose with my son giving up the team to Ira. If Jr. was still managing I would not have made the offer. I crunched the numbers and the trade looked balanced enough for me to make the offer. I had held Crosby and Ovi long enough and thought it was the perfect time to make a deal.

Full disclosure, I'm a long suffering Leaf fan and this appears to be the year they might win something. So I made the offer hoping to cheer on the team and my fantasy players. It adds a level of excitement and makes it fun to watch your home team play.

Now can someone get Nylander to sign. What a waste. The team is capable of making a serious run this year and he's sitting at home with contract issues. Okay, maybe not, their defence is highly suspect.

I really wish I didn't have to give up my team from last year. :(

keepers
Ovechkin
Draisaitl
Tavares
Andersen (g)

Perm Dude & Tax still hasn't checked in with keepers.
Once they are provided I'll open the draft. Probably tomorrow sometime.

I'll send out a Yahoo! notification tomorrow.
Stay Tuned.

I guess my rationale is that if someone offers you Crosby, you don't say 'no' haha.

To be honest I hadn't really thought about it for more than about a minute. As far as I remembered Crosby has been outproducing Tavares for almost every season of his career. Comparing the players now, I actually didn't realize Tavares is 3 years younger, so there's definitely that advantage for a keeper league.
I was hoping that CSF was a Leafs fan and getting all starry eyed from pre-season so I figured it's best to strike while the irons hot. I'm excited to see what he and the Leafs accomplish this year as they're top-9 forwards look insane!

No worries T-man.

The draft is underway at draftime. Enjoy.

I'll be gone for the next few hours. Taxman is co-commish and should be able to keep things moving along.

Re: 33 - CSF can’t fault you for looking to change things up, and yes having elite home team players to root for definitely makes the season extra fun to follow. The Leafs should be an offsenive juggernaut.

Re: 34 - Ira I would’ve done the same thing, Crosby doesn’t come up on the block in any form of fantasy hockey almost ever. Not straight up one for one, anyways.

But what do i know. You're the champion for a reason.

That might've been the plan had Giroux and Vlad still been around, but not to be. I did have you pegged for Luongo though on the flip side of that round, so an eye for an eye :P

I've not received any notifications in Yahoo!, email, draftime or on this site indicating a pick mistake. Also, PD has made his 8th round pick. I'm not sure if he's using queue management and inadvertently made the error as I don't have any visibility (and rightly so) to his queue.

I'm going to leave the pick as is until I hear from PD.

Rolling back is not an option and I'm not going to stop the draft. I'm open to allowing a change of pick as it does look a bit suspect.

No issues with allowing Tax to make up that pick when he’s free.

I’ll be hopping on a 10 hour flight soon here, but the queues filled. Hopefully no hag ups from my end.

Sorry for the delat guys, I was ready to pick Miro Heiskanen, D, DAL, but he wasn't in Draftime. Sent an email to Draftime to add him. Didn't have time to fix a placeholder, since my tennis game was about to start. Will now pick Mirco Mueller as a placeholder for Heiskanen.

TommyD with the W, congrats!

I wish I could I say was tanking, the result sure as hell made it seem like I was. Wasted season for me, could’ve turned it around midway through with a couple key missed FA pickups, and the goaltending was volatile all year. Jonathan Quick from Hero to zero in one year, and Loungo looking like it’s time for him to hang em up. Back to the drawing board.

Great season congrats to our 2018/19 champ, TommyD.
Good runs by Filthy and Cobwebs as well.
I was way wrong with the Petterson analysis. The kid was stellar.

Nice to see the race tighten up towards the end of the season.

4 lousy shutouts, crappy powerplay points, and meagre assists sank my battleship. Once I lagged behind on these numbers there was just no way to find players who could bolster these numbers. Bah. Bring on the playoffs.
