Seider!

Seider!

Yeah, I hesitated a lot. Not a lot of D taken yet so I figure a run will start soon and I really wanted Seider in this format.

[loppantorkel]

Yea, I would've taken Seider, had he fallen, I thought it was a decent chance for that...

[niconasr]

Well, you took Meier from me so I guess that's fair!

Yea, it was between him and Meier, and didn't see Meier falling that low, but I'm not sure if it was the right pick in the end. Seider may prove more valuable. Like you I think he'll be great in this format.

I've got to ask this - If, for example, Vasilevski plays one game, gets hurt, but earns a shutout in that game - GAA 0, Save% 1.00. If the owner of Vasilevski doesn't have any other goalies and Vasilevski is out the whole remainder of the year, that owner would win these two categories? There are no minimum requirements and the score is summed up at the end of the year?

I assume 2G means we have to draft two goalies, but I would think yes (I'm not Commish though)

the pick thread isnt sending me emails when a reply is made so I might not be as quick helping to update fantrax today

Check your subscription. Mine was removed without me doing anything yesterday.

You do not have to take 2 G. You can draft as many guys as you want from each position but keep in mind that you would have guys on your bench if you exceeded the F position and UTIL position totals if you were to just draft all F for example.

So you can draft whoever you want but don't draft more than 7 goalies, 10 D or 17 F. Never seen anyone get close to those totals but we will keep an eye on it as we get later into the draft.

I mean there's no substitutes right so having a F on the bench just means you are blocking someone else from selecting that player, at a pretty steep cost

Taking a gamble on Landeskog's health, but the upside is so tasty in this league. Probably go D there if not for the D run that just occurred, wiping my best options.

I was hoping Landeskog would go forgot/not picked due to his health, but people too on top of things here

Yeah, exactly. There's basically no advantage to take only one G. You're just wasting a spot.

I think it's a great pick. If there's isn't a D there you liked, Landeskog made a ton of sense.

DeBrincat going only 2 spots from my pick sucked. Surprised he fell that far. Hopefully Robertson can match or exceed his production.

[Seyfert]

Yea, I chose between Debrincat and Rielly but Dr. Brad made the choice easy for me.
Robertson shouldn't dissappoint either though, should be a solid pick.
