    Default Draft Help

    I have acquired the top pick in our annual prospect draft that always takes place not long after the season starts. Any prospect at any level or age is fair game. Here is who I am looking at

    1. Mikhail Grigorenko
    2. Vladimir Tarasenko - He was dropped for some unknown reason
    3. Nathan MacKinnon

    Who would you

    - Would totally consider Nail Yakupov, but he was taken last year

    Very tough call. Could make an argument for any of them. Tarasenko should be in the NHL next season and Grigorenko certainly appears to be a threat to make his NHL team next season. MacKinnon of course is a 2013 draftee so at least another year of waiting.

    But if your gut says Grigorenko then go for it.

    Thanks for the comment, it is a tough call to be sure as they are all great players. So much so that I am trying hard to acquire another pick to snag another one of them.

    I have a tough time personally deciding between MacKinnon and Grigorenko. I think MacKinnon might have a slightly higher upside, but Grigs is one year sooner to the NHL, so I might give him a bit of an edge here. Still, if you can somehow land both you will be very happy.

    I put Tarasenko 3rd on the list, despite being one of the biggest Tarasenko fans out there.
    12 team, H2H, salary cap
    1 pt/G or A, 2 pts/W, 1 pt/OTL, 1 pt/SO

    Forward: B. Point, M. Necas, A. Debrincat, T. Zegras, J. Bratt, L. Raymond
    Defense: J. Morrissey, A. DeAngelo, S. Gostisbehere, D. Doughty
    Goalie: T. Demko, E. Merzlikins
    Bench: M. Rossi, C. Glass, M. Maccelli, M. Dumba, K. Shattenkirk, F. Andersen
    Prospects of Note: L. Stankoven, J. Lekkerimaki, D. Yurov, B. Clarke

    League has been running continuously since 1997-98
