Lots of 70 point forwards still left. Now, all you guys who don't have two starting goalies just get out of the way and let us pick the remaining 70 point forwards and 55 point defensemen. You don't have a chance now, so give up. :^^^^:

Solid, Spezz... solid.

Okay good...I was really torn on that pick. Thanks.

No need to be torn. I had him in my list of 70 pt forwards. With Hossa and Hudler gone, he could get even more ice time than last year. Now I've only got 4 left in that list, maybe I should grab a forward instead of a defenseman. Hmm, decision, decisions.

Correction to pgood's pick. He had sent me a "revised" list with Visnovsky at the top; mistake on my part copying from the earlier PM.

So now Patrice Bergeron is available, unless Dash or SpezDispenser want him. PMs will be sent shortly.

I sent my picks to SpezD since I'm going to b away until the afternoon.

I am going to be away for a few days (in fact I am actually Ottawa bound), so my internet access until Tuesday night will be very limited.

I should have a couple opportunities to access the net, so I'll be sure to check out where we are draft wise when I get online and add a pick if its my turn.

I'm not going to compile a list that would theoretically have to be about 30 players long (sorry, just too lazy) but if I sign in and its close I'll definitely send out a list of 5-7 names if need be.

Im pissed about that Visnovsky pick. Honestly, get your Dung straight people and dont post picks unless your certain that it is the player you/the person wants.

It has happened quite a bit.
2 people picked players, posted it and then deleted their post and changed their pick 20 seconds later. They thought nodbody caught it, but some did.

I was one of them........who gives a Dung. Its an online pool. If you've got a problem, chill the Diddle out (statement aimed in any relevant direction)

I don't have a spreadsheet; I haven't done any analysis; I'm just going on instinct and hope. If I make a pick and twenty seconds later decide I can do better, than: yeah, I'm gonna change my Diddle pick.

Have a little perspective here, people. Getting upset at any of this might be the most nonsensical thing I can imagine. There are people throughout the world that won't eat today and you're upset that someone changed their mind in an internet hockey pool.

Get a grip.

is it my turn then? I'll take Bergie if it is.

So what? Doesn't matter until the next person has picked if you ask me.

Who is that

Where did I say I had a problem with it? I would love for you to find that in my post. I was simply stating it has happened before.

You guys really need to relax. A holier than thou attitude doesn't fly with me and even though it is my pick in 2 turns, I am taking another little break.

Actually, this post was the reason I said "aimed in any relevant direction" after saying to chill out. My point was that if you (as in anyone, not you specifically) were upset with the preceedings, you should chill the Diddle out and take a broader view of things.
