Superdraft - where would every NHL player get picked today?

[nfreeman]

If JJ50 doesn't post in the next 15 min -- is it OK to assign him Enroth?

Ville Leino or Cy Hsn

Benn ends up being the third fourth winger picked.  He was one of my hope-he-falls targets.

With the 20th pick of the 2015 Superdraft the Minnesota Wild select Ryan Miller. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Seriously, Vladimir Tarasenko.

###### you dudacek!

I'm seriously very curious why he fell this far.

Is because we are so fixated on centres?

Young, proven winner, a horse who does everything well.

 

And and lol to JJ

Derrico is on the clock, then Whisky, then double Hoss.

[Derrico]

Ok, give me one second here, I was hoping Benn fell.

There is no actual clock.  Take as many seconds as you'd like.

The New York Islanders select PK Suban.

I had just got out of a meeting.  I get back to my desk and instead of input my new numbers into excel, I rush to Sabres Space and see if Jamie Benn fell to me in this meaningless fantasy draft  :doh:

Interesting. You took the guy I considered taking instead of Benn.

[LastPommerFan]

Wait, am I building two different teams?

FWIW I was indeed fixated on centers, with "franchise defenseman" ahead of "high-scoring winger" in my valuation system.  I didn't like any of the centers still available at my slot, so that meant I was going with a Dman.  And I think a Dman who can create offense like Karlsson is slightly more valuable than an all-around horse like Doughty, and I think Karlsson is better offensively than Subban, so I went with Karlsson by a nose over Subban.

Fair points and you can make an argument for most other picks ahead of him. He could have been a second choice for 10 slots in row, but behind different guys due to the individual tastes of the pickers.

I just think he's pretty much acknowledged as a top-10 player and it's surprising to see him where he is.

 

Good lesson on how highly ranked guys drop sometimes in the entry draft.

I'll trade you Subban and a 7th for Benn?

[JJFIVEOH]

I'll trade you Subban and a 7th for Benn?

Which turns into a 6th if you make the playoffs.

No, you just have picks for two different teams (as I understand it).

[LastPommerFan]

I'm up next, but I really need to know if my next player is for a second lineup, or if my next player will be playing next to Johanson.

 

in other words, are freeman and eleven building the same team?

[JJFIVEOH]

I'm so confused...........

You're just building one team.  Freeman and Eleven are a special case.

No one is building a team.

You are being asked to pick who you think is the best available player, period.

[Eleven]

We are?  I really thought I was building two separate teams.

[qwksndmonster]

Nevermind.  I apparently don't know the rules at all.

[WildCard]

Nevermind.  I apparently don't know the rules at all.

Judging by the last 4 pages of this thread you aren't alone in that.

Have you ripped your hair out yet? :lol:

[Samson's Flow]

Not that I am a part of this, but based on everyone's choices, it looks like the majority of posters are picking with the intents of building a team starting from scratch.

 

IMO, it wouldn't make any sense to combine two random draft slots "teams" to make one team per poster. That would give a big advantage to guys with early picks and a big disadvantage to guys like Flagg and Hoss. Obviously you would take Wildcard's Kane and Ovechkin team at #1/#8 over whomever is picking in the late 20's. It should be two separate teams IMO.
