Reply With QuoteTook me a second to realize that the numbers in brackets were their ages, and not an auction value.
My top 2 picks are Crosby and Kane. McDavid likely being 3rd.
If you have a bunch of D slots to fill, then Karlsson is a possible pick too.
$100 Draft - First Overall Pick
Hi guys,
Used to be a very active poster on this site. Haven't participated in hockey pools in a while, but looking to get into one finally this year.
Big buy-in, 12 person pool, 10 rounds, and POINTS ONLY.
My first pick will likely be one of:
- Tavares (26)
- Seguin (24)
- Ovechkin (31)
- Giroux (28)
Who do you go? Why?
Thanks guys!

Re: $100 Draft - First Overall Pick
Sorry, I made a mistake in my post. I don't have the first overall pick, but I agree with your top 3.
I am picking mid-round, and the guys I listed are the ones who will most likely be available at the time. Thoughts?

Re: $100 Draft - First Overall Pick
Points only I rank them:
Seguin (huge risk huge reward pick here with injuries)
Ovy - safe bet for 70, not much passed 70 when he doesn't get a tonne of assists
Giroux - leads league in scoring over the passed 5 years combined shows consistency
Tavares - I expect a bounce-back, but he doesn't have much talent around him.
Re: $100 Draft - First Overall Pick
If Seguin is there when you are picking, you have to gamble on him.

Re: $100 Draft - First Overall Pick
Points only:
Tavares - puts up best #'s of his career 90
Seguin - going to miss a chunk still good for 85
Giroux - bounces back - 78
Ovie - 55 goals - still won't pass - 75
