Zach6668 513 Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 So... I decided to test the waters for the #2 pick, because I'm pretty sure I won't be getting my guy at #4... Anyways, this was Mike's offer to me:"Skinner, Sbisa, and Gudbranson plus the 4th something you could consider?"And my rebuttal:"are you drunk?"I quickly withdrew from the bidding. Skinner isn't worth the #2 pick alone. Link to post Share on other sites

Dubey 1,035 Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 He did end up getting a nice package for the pick, but yeah, that is pretty ludicrous.Zach, if your guy goes next (assuming it wasn't Landeskog?), we can talk about a deal for #4 if you want. Link to post Share on other sites
Dubey 1,035 Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 this was the trade:From Mike - 2nd overallFrom Rich - 13th overall, 21st overall, Andrew Cogliano, Martin Hanzal, Calvin DeHaan, and Victor Hedman. Link to post Share on other sites

I think he's taking him out of spite. However, I have a back-up that I like about 1% less than "my guy", so I'm not moving him. I didn't have Landeskog in my top 4, tbh.

Zach6668 513 Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 All four of the players traded in that deal are still on the farm, fwiw. Link to post Share on other sites
ajs510 122 Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Mike's wish list from me for the #2 overall:Your two firsts (#7 overall and #14 overall), Stoa, Omark, Kindl and Jovanovski . . . .I respectfully withdrew from consideration. Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Huberdeau goes 3rd to Strategy, and I get my guy Strome at #4. Link to post Share on other sites

Zach6668 513 Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 I don't see any way #5 isn't who we all think it'll be, but I guess there could be a couple different factor at play in Duane's mind. Link to post Share on other sites

Zach6668 513 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Beddddddddddddd time. See you fools tomorrow. I love the entry draft. Link to post Share on other sites
digitalmonkey 929 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Bedtime at 8:00pm. Up at 6:00am. Apparently Zach has turned into a 5 year old. Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 It was 9, and I watched tv til I fell asleep like 30 mins later, so really 9:30. Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 God, I just realized we're currently drafting players born in 1993. Vomit. Link to post Share on other sites
ajs510 122 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 I was out cold by 9pm too, was hoping to wake up and find that it was my turn to pick but oh well. Duane's 12 hours have to be up pretty soon, right? Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Yeah, but I'm going to be really patient in the first round here. He hasn't logged into the forums for almost 4 days. I'm gonna fire off a text in a little bit, when the time is more reasonable. Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Alright, Duane will be picking at #5 shortly. Rich and Adam to follow. I'm completely lost after the top 5 though. Where does Larsson fall to? In what order do the 2nd tier forwards go? And so on. Link to post Share on other sites
Babying 613 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 I really doubt I can ever fall asleep at around 9 pm. It is not physically possible. Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 It depends on when you get up. I just get up when I wake up, and fall asleep when I'm tired. Easy game. Link to post Share on other sites
ajs510 122 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 I was just really tired at 9pm last night so I went to bed. I live alone, so no kids needing to be entertained and taken care of, I just crash when I crash and get up when I get up. Link to post Share on other sites
ajs510 122 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Sean Couturier to the Injured Reserve rounds out the Top 5 picks exactly as I thought they'd go (not necessarily the order, but the players selected). 1 - RNH to the Whalers2 - Gabriel Landeskog to the Wheat Ales3 - Huberdeau to the Reserves4 - Strome to the Limidonks5 - Couturier to the IR Link to post Share on other sites

Dubey 1,035 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Zach, I figured Strome was the guy you wanted. He was also the guy I had my eye on when I made the offer for your pick.6 and 7 went off the board quickly.6. Mika Zibanajed - Rich7. Sven Bartschi - Adam Link to post Share on other sites
