The Draft

The draft was last Friday eve. 8 team Head to Head (HTH). We did HTH because last year we did Rotisserie and me and one other person jumped so far into the lead that several people dropped out. With HTH, people are more likely to play each week in order to avoid losing to that week's opponent.

I ended up with:

Martin Brodeur (picked first)
Vincent Lecavalier (picked second)
Paul Stastny
Evgeni Nabokov
Peter Budaj
Jordan Staal (picked last)
Jason Pominville
Chris Neil
Sean Avery
Paul Kariya
Brian Rolston
Nicklas Lidstrom
Lubomir Visnovsky (yay!)
Sergei Zubov
Marc Andre Bergeron


Then I made THE TRADE

I traded Lidstrom and Lecavalier to a Bolts fan for Crosby and Zhitnik.
I then dropped Neil and picked up Ray Whitney

Team looks good. Low on G and PIM. Strong everywhere else. Trade improved A but cut back on PPP and G.

We're using:

Goals, Assists, +/-, Power Play Points, Penalties in Minutes, and Shooting Percentage

G, A, +/-, PPP, PIM, SH%,

and for the goalies, Wins, Goals Against Average, and Save Percentage.

W, GAA, and SV%.
