Post your 2017 prospect draft results here

[STONE.]

Pick 120 that can't the THEE Sebatian Aho?

There are two. One went undrafted twice before getting snagged this summer. I'm guessing that's the one.

[The Black Panther]

I was thinking that too. But.....is he even worth it?

[Potatoeman]

I was thinking that too. But.....is he even worth it?

Yes, it's the Swedish defenseman... At pick #120 with only 2017 draftees, you get what you can. Kristian Roykas-Marthinsen, who I drafted at 189, might never even play in the AHL... but you do have to pick SOMEONE... lol

Also, we have a full farm team to fill out (besides our prospects list), so if he doesn't make the NHL, he might help out my farm team.

[Fighting_Emu]

So this is for a 31 team sim league, so a players value is closer to real NHL value than fantasy. All 2017 draftees are elligible. I have the expansion team, Vegas, picks are bolded.

Wow Yamamoto was a gift- surprised Middlestadt fell so far too. I actually like the Aho pick. Obviously no guarantee but definitely good enough value there.

[Fighting_Emu]

Traded a lot of my picks to land OEL, E Lindholm, Toffoli, and Hall- so not a TON to work with. I just barely missed out on the timing for a trade up offer to land Ikonen (MTL). Other than that Im happy with my picks- what few I had- lol! Mine are VGK bolded:

Wow Yamamoto was a gift- surprised Middlestadt fell so far too. I actually like the Aho pick. Obviously no guarantee but definitely good enough value there.

Yeah I traded up to 25 when I saw that Yamamoto was still on the board. Actually, the same GM had picks 18 and 25. I had already tried to get # 18 so I could draft Brannstrom but he had his eyes set on his guy (Oettinger). When we were at 22 and it became clear that I could get either Yamamoto or Kostin (because Chicago wasn't online, so it was going to be an autopick), man I really wanted to make a deal then!

Pretty solid picks you made yourself!

[ultrawhiteness]

Every year I collect the top 20-30 picks from most of these and figure out the average position. I leave out some drafts or some picks if they look like too much of an outlier, and only include this year's draft class. Here it is so far:

11 Liljegren 11.9
12 Tolvanen 14.1
13 Yamamoto 14.1
14 Rasmussen 14.4
15 Necas 14.6
16 Andersson 15.3
17 Brannstrom 16.9
18 Valimaki 18.2
19 Kostin 18.3
20 Foote 18.5

My picks are in teal. I'm pretty happy with most of the picks - didn't need to take Norris that high, but I was doing my draft list on the fly on my phone during the draft (Computer crashed before the draft with my list on it). The draft was thrown up a little in the early rounds by a few owners not turning up and getting autodrafted... particularly at #1 overall lol

How does Lias Anderssen turn out to be 1st on an autodraft???

[Twiggy]

How does Lias Anderssen turn out to be 1st on an autodraft???

Our autodrafts get moved to the end of the round and then picks are taken off nhl draft order - so hence Anderssen at "1"

Drafted Glass 3rd overall. No regrets! Although I am genuinely shocked at a few things that happened here:

• Mittlestadt dropping to 7th was a travesty
• Samsonov 8th is insanity imo
• Ship 14th was a huge surprise

[TheBadger]

Someone got a couple bargains in the last round in Beauviller and Myers. The only D in this year's draft I like as much as Myers is Makar. McAvoy deserves to be up there but Myers that low in this draft is robbery.

Love this thread.

Don't mean to shift gears but Axe, who do you hold in higher regard for a banger league Sanheim or Myers?
