There is no time limit. You can make your picks in the morning. We have nearly 4 weeks to get this done, so as long as we can find a few slots here and there when everyone is around we'll be fine. Seriously, if we put aside a couple of lunch hours we'd be done.
no, the way i understand it is you have to make your ranking ahead of time. if you don't they'll use their ranking to make your picks.

Umm, Houston, do we have a problem? Anyone know for sure?

Also, are we *really* going to pick 12F+7D+3G? The first post says 9+4+2, which is a lot more manageable. Or am I reading too much into the draft page roster (that's the one that shows 12F slots, 7D and 3G).

No, you make your own picks. You can rank your own players IF YOU WANT, so then you wouldn't have to fllow their rankings and projections when picking your players.

Also, I think you can queue up some players and set it on autopilot if you are not going to be there and want to move the draft along.

and yes it's 12 forwards, 7 D, and 3 G

Seriously though, I'm 35 and I'm annoyed to crap by these nerds pounding their music and bass. Yeah, that's what I want to hear. Gag

Yeah, i've been saying about kids these days and their music since I've been 20. It's kind of my thing. Patent pending!

We are doing the 12,7,3 so that when someone gets injured you have a replacement. I can shorten it if you want.

Personally I think 3 goalies is way too much with 16 people. I'd actually prefer if you were not mandated who your injury reserves are. A pool I used to run for many years had something like 2 lines, 2 defensive pairings and a goalie as the must-haves out of a total of 15 players -- so you could pick 4 spares and split them up any way you wanted. As far as the scoring went, your top 6 forwards, top 4 defensemen and top goalie had to count. If you picked only one goalie and he got injured on the first night, then you had a player that would be stuck at zero points.

Anyhow, I don't want to impose (or even propose) too much, but 22 players is a little too deep -- it will take a loooong time to get through the draft. And with 16 teams it will be difficult for everyone to even get one known-good starter. There's only about 15 goalies in the league that are going to get the majority of starts on decent teams. So the other 2 goalies you pick will be duds -- really, what's the point of that?

Yeah usually in my pools we have 2 goalies you must start, and then the rest is up to you. Some guys end up having 3, some end up with just 2.

Hey sens4win and everybody in the draft, I suggest that we restart this whole thing. My picks were fine up until I got Cussing Andrew Brunette and Tim Connolly, and I was never on autopick.

So I suggest we restart the whole thing, invite straight shooter in as well.

and people like Garblar, Marakh, and wprager were also screwed over so I think it's time to shut it down and reboot.

We have lots of time to restart it and I think it would might be better to draft on the forums
