Re: How'd I Draft
Goalies are concerning, as you might have none that play even 50 games. Yes, you count SV% not SV, so it's less of an issue, but you stand to get buried in W and SO. I'm also concerned about the PP production of your forwards. But your D is stacked. You might need to bite the bullet and trade from strength there.

Re: How'd I Draft
I'm fine with fading G, particularly in a H2H league. You've got plenty of grit, and a bunch of high upside guys. Nice team.

Re: How'd I Draft
Looking at your roster, I think you reached on guys. I can't really tell but going through I'm guessing your draft went:
Round 1: Brady Tkachuk
Round 2: Dahlin?
Round 3: Ullmark?
Round 4: Svechnikov?
Round 5: Bouchard?
It's not really clear. I could be wrong there though. But I think you reached on a few people, I dunno. I don't really have a warm fuzzy feeling about the roster, but it'll be made or broken on the backs of picks like Campbell, Letang, Hartman and Brown being effective all year.

Re: How'd I Draft
I think it's an average team that could move up with guys hitting their upside.
You lack a high end scorer or two and will need to rely upon everyone producing for points each week. Svechnikov should be ready almost right away so that should help.
I assume you drafted in the back half of the draft and took Brady one, not sure who you took with your 2nd pick.
I like Letang to have a solid season but typically do not like using a D in Util spots.
Goalies are also uncertain with 3 guys in timeshares and 2 guys who will start as the backup. You should have solid goalie peripherals but Ws will be tough

This is my feeling as well. Hope it wasn't a snake draft.Originally Posted by 2014olympicgold
Re: How'd I Draft
After struggling to start the season as I was in 12th place in the 12 team league after week 4, my team slowly climbed up the standings. I moved from 7th place to 6th place on the last day of our regular season to qualify for the championship playoffs. Two upsets later and my team is playing for the championship over the rest of the NHL regular season.
I ended up shoring up my goaltending by picking up Daccord and Kyotchekov from the waiver wire which helped me all season.
Re: How'd I Draft
ANd that is why we play the season, congrats!

Re: How'd I Draft
It would be fun to see your in-season adds/trades... because I see no way this team is top6 without significant high-end in-season GM-ing.
Hayton, Serg, Connor Brown, Jack Campbell, Schmid. Yugg.
You definitely had some skill in-season!!!
There's maybe 2-4 top75 players here. (Tkachuk, Dahlin... maybe Kempe... he had a nice year. Ullmark for his 50% starts.)
Re: How'd I Draft
I am definitely an active manager and used about 25 waiver adds throughout the season. My team today is as follows:
Kempe
Necas
B Tkachuk
Byfield
Bunting (added today)
Svechnikov
Peterka
Ekholm
Bouchard
Dahlin
Power (picked up last week)
Beniers (picked up last week)
Hagel
Neighbours
Ullmark
Woll
Daccord
Kochetkov
Re: How'd I Draft
Daccord's Dec/Jan run was the big one.
And... Evan Bouchard... yes sir!
Good pick-ups/trades - however you did it.
IMO, fantasy hockey is about a 40/30/30 split in 1-year & minimal-partial keeper H2H leagues.
40% drafting/keeper-set
30% in-season pick-ups
30% luck (esp. goalies in H2H playoffs)
Congrats!
