A cheap goalie, a cheap D and a good prospect
Hi,
It's not needed to answer my questions, but if you've followed here ( https://forums.dobbersports.com/show...pert-questions ) here's how things shook up.
As I had learned recently, the guy who moved up to 3rd wanted a D, and the guy who moved up to 4th wanted a G. And the guy with the 1st wanted a D as well.
So I ended up with Kaapo Kakko with the 5th overall pick. A real miracle.
But through the whole first round and early second, A LOT of goalies were taken.
So I followed people's advice and went for Ovechkin right away. It still didn't prompt a run of high priced players.
So in the third round, I went for recently cut in our league Voracek.
My roster is pretty much set in front.
But it came with a cost. All the goalies are taken. And I only have 3.4M left to draft. I made this decision as the only 'starters' left were Price (15M no thanks), Anderson, Howard (both too old on weak teams) and Koskinen (can't trust).
So I'll have to trust Markstrom and Ullmark.

Here are my options for goalies. Please rank.
Jack Campbell, LAK
Cal Peterson, LAK
Jake Oettinger, DAL
Filip Larsson, DET
And maybe just maybe I want to fish Joonas Korpisalo, CBS in case he wins the crease and can steal wins.

I'd feel more comfortable with a 7th D in case Brannstrom doesn't pan out. I need one that plays in the NHL this year and not be sent down.
Joel Persson, EDM
Marcus Pettersson, PIT
Kyle Capobianco, ARI
Urho Vaakanainen, BOS
Calle Rosen, COL

And finally, I've got my 9 forward and at least 5 decent options. I don't think I *need* another forward, but since people jumped on G and D early, there are some options out there.
Joe Veleno, DET
Jason Robertson, DAL
Dylan Cozens, BUF
Alex Barre-Boulet, TBL
Aleksei Heponiemi, FLA
And some upside guys who'll play now (but I don't need their 2019-2020 production)
Conor Garland, ARI
Vinnie Hinostroza, ARI
Alexandre Texier, CBS
The Dobber community has been very thoughtful so far.
I've got the 6th pick tomorrow morning as we start the fourth round.
