PM it to me and I'll add it.

I came up with 3 picks and PMd them to Tuk Tuk (since he's got the next two anyway).

Hemlock, an interesting note for you on Parise for this year. In Jacques Lemaire's (Devils new coach) 15 year coaching career, no player has ever recorded more than 85 points on his team. To make matters worse, Lemaire's 2000/01 Minnesota Wild saw every player fail to score even 40 points.

If anyone can break this brutal streak, it is Parise and I see the streak being broken this year.

Oh, geez, I completely forgot about that. Lemaire will slow down their offense, for sure, but Brodeur could be on fire. Since I didn't take him, here's hoping he rips the other biceps.

I said it earlier Brodeur was/is the steal of the draft. I knew I shouldn't have waited till my 2nd round pick. I thought people would forget about Brodeur because of his injury last year, and I knew some would forget about Lemaire.

Someone is going to have to score the goals there though. That team outside of Zajac and Parise isn't getting any younger upfront. Do I expect another 45 goal season? No, but 40 is attainable I think.

Interesting, how not one of the three picks I PMd to you were picked by the three people picking ahead of me. Yet I can't really argue with their picks much. Except for, maybe, Staal. As good as he may be, he's a center playing behind Crosby and Malkin. He will never get the ice time and the PP time of the other two. He'll get more PK time, but that's not going to help in this pool.

its eric staal, not jordon Prag.

I have Dash's and Spezz' picks, just waiting on hayden

Did you PM hayden?

yep

Oops. My bad, sorry.

OK, then, what can I sat about Tim Thomas, then? Hmm, regular season, not much. Moving along to Danielle Sedin. It's no-longer contract year, I think we'll see a slide in production.

Henrik sedin

Steve Mason
