OFFICIAL DRAFT THREAD

Good afternoon gentlemen.  One can feel the tension and energy mounting as we rapidly approach draft day.  I for one always have an extra spring in my step this time of year.  One never knows how a draft will flow.  Fascinating to observe the steals and the bloopers as they happen.  I have made my share of draft day bloopers over the course of my fantasy career.  Loads in fact.  That said, there are always those mid to late draft steals that are so fulfilling.  With that said, here is the official draft order.  Please peruse.  And peruse closely.  And then re-peruse.  And so on and so forth.....

Pretty obvious Scott's going to take Todd Bertuzzi!

Lucky guy!

Bertuzzi is actually number 2 in my rankings so I might as well still go with my first.

Connor McDavid - C - Edmonton Oilers

Who's that? I'm shocked and appalled that you didn't choose Johnny Bagadonuts with that pick. He won't be there on the way back!

And now for the obligatory,

"Great pick!"

Really? McDavid... who would have thunk? I wonder who the next pick will be?

I guess this means that we have started early???

Eichel - Buf

It's September 1st somewhere!

Henrik A-Hole Senior-C-Vancouver

Hmmmmm. Not exactly the guy I selected. Lol

Henrik S-E-D-I-N

Good work around there Ray.

I forgot that I had done that with A-Hole Senior on the forum.

Tigers Select Jake Allen - STL

Nice Scoop.

Go right ahead guys and add in ESPN.

The other A-Hole Senior -LW VAN

Just sent you a trade offer Scott.

Man, nice pick Scott. Jones was one of two guys on my short list. I was also sad to see one of the Sedins didn't make it back to me at 8th overall.

Martin Jones -G- San Jose

Hmmmm, how did my reply end up ahead of your pick? LOL.

Thanks Matt. I debated that one for a while with myself actually haha.

Jiri Hudler-RW- Cgy

Wondered when that was coming. I thought May was going to get him again!
