UW friend, rank my picks as well. you know me from the other league that im going to dominate you in. so how am i looking so far in this one:laugh:

price, stastny, and perry? you\'re looking just fine, pal!

perry as your 3rd was awesome. i was hoping he would fall to my end.

the thing with your team newper is that you\'ll be waiting a year or two for those three guys to hit their stride. then again, i picked radulove 2nd, so i\'m in the same boat a bit.

Speaking of waiting to hit their stride, my team consists of Backstrom and DiPietro and Kaberle on rebuilding teams

well, im bored, so i thought i\'d jot down some of my favourite teams so far.

nordiquefan - ovie, campbell, whitney - just awesome. good strategy!
crazynuck - morrow, chara, fleury - great balance
culpy - thornton, gonchar, bernier - interesting, because just about when bernier begins producing, gonchar will be winding down.
gongshow - savard, markov, nabokov - safe picks, good spread among positions.
torture - iginla, richards, vokoun - i will follow torture\'s team closely, because i should have probably picked vokoun, so it will almost be like a bizarro version of my own team
babalu69 - kovy, kopitar, st.louis - same strat as mine, but kopitar > briere
raccer - toews, mueller, phaneuf - can you build an entire team around phaneuf? i think so.
chicleteur - getzlaf, brown , bryzgalov - i think bryz is the real deal, and chic is going after all categories at once
broadstreetbullies - michalek, turco, ward - i have a feeling i\'m gonna be trading with this guy at some point.

obviously, every team has something going for them, these ones just intrigue me for whatever reason. we shall see if noriculous can get a good selection in and make a case for having the best team after 3 picks (hossa-giguere-?)!

great work UW.

Let me comment on your team.

Zetterberg, Radulov and Briere. Great job covering all the forwar positions but the top end D and G\'s are gone so we shall see how your team looks once you fill in those holes.
Great job picking guys in their prime and Radulov we all know his potential but its a risk in round 2. But being a pool on dobber i was surprised he wasn\'t gone in round 1.

As for my team its all about balance. the best way to win roto leagues.B)

yeah, i\'m a bit of a roto newbie, and i definitely did not head into this thinking i would go LW-RW-C. but once zetterberg fell to me, i couldn\'t say no, and then after that there wasn\'t a goalie that i could justify picking. in hindsight, ward or giguere might have been good picks. all i can do is hope that i can gather enough offense together to put me ahead in those categories or to use as trade bait.

besides, a certain dark lord of the swiss is still around, ain\'t he? (damn, where is tiantonio when you need him?)

I\'m actually swiss and a believer in Gerber but Tiantonio has the man crush on him. Good to see he\'s around again.

[ultrawhiteness]

i threw in the swiss part last minute, just for you.

[Crazynuck]

thx dude

[JagrBomb]

i hope noone plans on drafting aki berg before i do

[Torture]

torture - iginla, richards, vokoun - i will follow torture\'s team closely, because i should have probably picked vokoun, so it will almost be like a bizarro version of my own team

Or maybe YOURS is the bizzaro version of mine, jeez! :laugh:

I\'ve got my eye on a couple of guys that I\'m really hoping fall to me. I\'m semi-confident that ONE of them will still be around when I get my 4th round pick.

yeah im hoping it wont be too long off. i like to compete each year. i was going to go with st.louis with my 3rd pick but i dont know something just made me grab perry. i think he will increase his point production by a good 15 this year. thanxs for the advice... always like hearing comments about what i have done.

Dan should be bumped to the end, because we know when he makes his one pick, it will be another big wait for his next one. If he was on the end, we would only have one wait compared to two. This guy is clearly not interested. He may have alot going on, but he should at the very least be a member.

On a side note, I\'m really envious of alot of other people\'s teams, im kinda nervous about mine and definitely not a fan with what I ended up with. I\'m hoping my man will fall to me next round, but there are many picks before then.

[DieHardWingsFan]

Hows my team so far?

C -Lecavalier
Rw - Hemsky
G - Theodore
