As I mentioned in the previous post, last night was my fantasy hockey draft. I am in it with ten of my friends, and we play for money. The rules are simple, choose six forwards, four defensemen, and two goaltenders, and calculate their points through the season (
goals, assists, and goalie wins/shutouts). The top six players count for your total (
three forwards, two defensemen, and one goalie). The draft order is picked from a hat, and we reverse the field after each round (
1 through 11, then 11 through 1). I drafted fourth overall. Here's my team:
Forwards- Markus Naslund (VAN)
- Paul Kariya (NSH)
- Brendan Morrison (VAN)
- Cory Stillman (CAR)
- Olli Jokinen (FLA)
- Henrik Zetterberg (DET)
Defensemen
- Niklas Lidstrom (DET)
- Ed Jovanovski (VAN)
- Sean Hill (FLA)
- Niclas Havelid (ATL)
Goaltenders
- Tomas Vokoun (NSH)
- Roberto Luongo (FLA)
Not bad. Not great, but not bad. With all due respect to every other league that fills my free time, the FHL is my pride and joy. Nothing else matters. I won the championship the last time I drafted Naslund, so I'm hoping lightning strikes twice. Wish me luck.
That's a strong team... no injury prone wussies... workhorses who are going to produce all season long...

ReplyDeleteI'm in pretty decent shape (on paper) but my friend Brian has the team to beat, including Alfredsson, Gaborik, Yashin, Mogilny, Tarnstrom, Modry, Cloutier, and Raycroft. He'll be tough to beat.
ReplyDeleteNot bad...not bad at all!
