Everyone happy with their teams? The only pick I'm second-guessing is Seth Jones, but obviously the hope is that if he's playing 30 a night and they can be at least competitive, he'll get the points and rack up hits and blocks just from being on the ice. Luke Richardson will be a good coach for him. He was good for the Ottawa D when he was in the Senators org. There are some young players I would have liked to take a flyer on, but I couldn't pass on the Kooze (who can?) and I like Perfetti and Johnson best of the group I was looking at. And I loved not having to draft goalies. Just knowing I could pick other positions higher all around because I didn't have to try to improve that position was golden.

I think the Vag just drafted the 2030 Canadian Olympic team roster. I think Al went for the Swedish roster at 2026 Olympics. Even without Leon and Oettinger, the defending champs will be a tough out week to week. SanDog looks much improved. Sizz needs to survive that raft of injuries, then he'll be right back in contention until the first round when his whole roster will contract mono. Kel traded away so many picks, his roster has more holes than the Broncos defense. This was a much more fun draft than the ones I've done before. Much less need to try to be clever to build for the future. Build this roster; think future when you can without hurting this season. I think Johnson could centre Gaudreau or Laine this year. I think Kuznetsov is playing to be traded to a contender who will appreciate him, and I think Perfetti is the beneficiary of the changes in Winnipeg. And I think Levi is the goalie for a long time for a very competitive Buffalo team, so I like him is a luxury keeper who could still play 40+ games as my 3rd goalie and put up some sweet ass numbers. If my opinion on players has value, your picks were great. You plucked the player I wanted a few picks ahead about 4 times.

If my opinion on players has value, your picks were great. You plucked the player I wanted a few picks ahead about 4 times. I lost a few the same way. I think danny took both Zacha and Larsson just before I had them lined up. That's the best part of the draft - waiting to take a player you really want as late as you can without losing him. I think Kuznetsov is going to have a strong bounce-back, and I had him in mind much earlier than I actually took him, but I got lucky. There's at least one player on waivers that I think is a dynamite pick but I just couldn't do it, and if he goes off and Perfetti or Johnson kind of fizzle, I'll be disappointed. Actually, I have one super darkhorse that I'd love to grab now because if things go the way they could, someone will pick him up in the first week and never look back. But Johnson and Perfetti are more likely to be consistent producers with key roles. Either way, I'm happy not to be trying to climb out of a hole for a change.

Everyone happy with their teams? Yeah, no weird auto picks this year. So who's your Shenny out of your big 3? Hyman, Lindholm and skinner.. Hoping there's no senny in there. I did snag Kane pretty early hoping he'll end up somewhere decent and be productive like he should.. Not just irrelevant like in NY. Also took a gamble on Dach again... Had Hartman ready to go but figured I'd see if Dach breaks out instead.

Fantasy and being a B's fan is tough...you have to be practical and in a lot of ways B's players aren't good Fantasy picks. So honestly I looked at Zacha and thought how doesn't this guy create offense on a team that is going to need it.

Vegas, where Vag got his completely unbiased and very accurate odds to start the season. Obviously.
