3rd round prospect help please!
Our prospect draft has been going well. I have picked Matthews, Laine, Sergachev, Lindell, and Fabbro (regret Fabbro over Zaitsev...). Our prospects are kept on 0.5M deals for 5 years, after which point we have the option to match any blind bids at the auction and re-sign for 3 more years.
That said, here's our draft so far:
Round 1
1. Auston Matthews, F, TOR
2. Patrik Laine, F, WPG
3. Jesse Puljujarvi, F, EDM
4. Pierre-Luc Dubois, F, CBJ
5. Drunk Drivers
6. Brock Boeser, F, VAN
7. Sebastien Aho, F, CAR
8. Clayton Keller, F, ARZ
9. Colin White, F, OTT
10. Logan Brown, F, OTT
11. Alexander Nylander, F, BUF
12. Tyson Jost, F, COL
13. Olli Juolevi, D, VAN
14. Esa Lindell, D, DAL
Round 2
15. Mikhail Sergachev, D, MON
16. Brandon Montour, D, ANA
17. Ilya Sorokin, G, NYI
18. Dante Fabbro, D, NSH
19. Michael McLeod, F, NJD
20. Kieffer Bellows, F, NYI
21. Nikita Zaitsev, F, TOR
22. Daniel Sprong, F, PIT
23. Thatcher Demko, G, VAN
24. Daniel Carr, F, MON
25. Jacob Chychrun, D, ARZ
26. Nick Schmaltz, F, CHI
I have pick 29 and there are 42 picks total. The other usual suspects are gone from last year plus guys like Adrian Kempe, Svechnikov, etc. I don't have any clue who will be going next.
Our rookies are very valuable because star players go for so much money in the auction (ie. Crosby is a 14M player). We also have to balance upside with arrival time... Guys like F Perron and Debrincat have zero value in our settings (I took Bracco last year and regretted it ever since).
I am planning on picking one of Motte, Lehkonen, Saros, Walman, Kamenev, Bean, Reway (is he even healthy?), Rodin, or Kempny. I'm curious if anyone has any really deep sleepers or players that may come out of nowhere. I hated missing out on parayko last year and Klingberg the year before (they were undrafted in our league and went for ++$ in the regular season free agent pool. I think I already missed out on this guy when I didn't pick Zaitsev, but I'm looking for the next one!
Thanks for your help!
