WhiteSpade 0 Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 I homer picked CPZ hoping to move up and pick one of 2 better (IMO) players closely afterward... only to have both of those players go immediately after. Link to post Share on other sites

SBriand 4 Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 I have never hit up hockeydb more than I have today.Most of the picks today make me think I am missing something in regards to prospects and may start to take on the Arp philosophy Link to post Share on other sites
strategy 4 Posted July 16, 2009 Author Share Posted July 16, 2009 Most of the picks today make me think I am missing something in regards to prospects and may start to take on the Arp philosophypretty sure it only took zach like 2-3 hours to make a list that included everyone picked today.well, I'm not sure about weirdcock, he might not have had that dude on his list.

Fenxis 99 Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 pretty sure it only took zach like 2-3 hours to make a list that included everyone picked today.well, I'm not sure about wiercioch, he might not have had that dude on his list.At some point I was hoping to trade back into the late 2nd / early 3rd round to grab him -- he's another one of those late bloomers. He had an invite to the WJC camp last year but he was cut (obviously). He seems to have a knack for scoring goals which is nice but needs work on the defensive game. Nice pick but I would have though there was a least a few d-men that would have ranked higher.Funny though... I try and be such a non-homer with Sens picks I end up missing out on them all of the time. Link to post Share on other sites

I try and be such a non-homer with Sens picks I end up missing out on them all of the time.I have a couple of defensemen rated slightly higher than Wiercioch, but I've had such a good feeling about his chances for making it for the past few months that I didn't want to risk not getting him if I waited. He was basically #1 on my list of guys I expected to come out of this draft owning.My picks seem to be very reachy for some reason, but like I said, not really any slam dunk picks left, it's all just judgement calls at this point.

Lee?) on the PP. Then have Phillips + Volch + Cowen logging the big shutdown minutes. Link to post Share on other sites

You, Ollie, and Jay all know how to draft, lol.Jay works days and I never see him around until like 4-5pm, so I have no idea if he's going to make a pick or not. I saw him on the board this morning around 6:30 but he didn't take anyone (obv). I'm probably going off the board again, so you really don't have to worry about me. I only take players no one has ever heard of apparently. Link to post Share on other sites

Then have Phillips + Volch + Cowen logging the big shutdown minutes.I think his size is going to be a huge advantage for him, especially if he can pack another 30 pounds of muscle onto that stringbean frame of his. You don't find many 6'5" defensemen who can actually skate and shoot. Link to post Share on other sites
