Even if my team was in the running to win the league I would still go with MacKinnon over anyone because I see him having the brightest future. Drouin not too far from Mack and Voracek might be good now but Mack and Drouin have higher ceilings imo
Points only. I have 1st overall and I've wanted Voracek for a while. Someone dropped him and he will go in the top 5 in our draft. I tried trading for home with no luck. I have 3 draft picks in the first round. Should I pass on Voracek hoping to get him at 5 or take him right away and give up mackinnon or drouin?

Who else was dropped in your league? How do you think tht top 4 would go if you took Mack/Drouin 1st overall??
Zorro says "vote for Dobber"
Angus is my best friend at dobberhockey..
A couple other ok players were dropped. Lupul, pominville, Keith,
I see the draft going as: bolded are my picks
1. Mackinnon
2. Drouin
3. Voracek
4. Jones
5. Keith
6. Pominville
7. Lupul
Pick 1, 5 & 7 in the first round are mine.
I'm confident not one of voracek mackinnon or drouin will be available at 5.

You have a good team and if you think you have a chance to win it all this year then you should draft Voracek. He will give your team a boost right away where Mac or Drouin will be 2-3 years away from helping your team.

Yup, that's exactly what I said, lol.
It seems very odd to me to draft MacKinnon with your first pick, and then a guy like Lupul with your 7th pick. Either you are trying to win this year, or you aren't! MacKinnon and Barkov make sense. Or Voracek and Lupul. But trying to win and build for the future? I'm not sure you can pull that off!

MacKinnon
Drouin
Voracek
It will be years before the two rookies are at Voracek's level today.
If you have any chance of winning the championship, I'd take Cek. Last season was no fluke.
Could you draft Mackinnon or Drouin then trade him for someone better than Voracek?
