This will get you no fantasy points, but thought I'd share.

LW Patrick Sharp, CHi

Sorry guys I have to check on my phone and still have to join the league so it's a bit of a struggle to see who's available. My fault.

I don't think Sharp has been taken, I was going to take Sharp and Kunitz potentially

Sharp is a legit pick. He was still on the board.

Understandable. Two good wingers named Patrick on the same team.

I have 2 guys in mind for my next two. I'll be pretty happy if I get both.
My luck I'll end up with neither

For anyone who may have missed, live draft portion of the draft is tentatively scheduled for Sunday night 9pm EST

Any objections?

We'll play by ear, see how many rounds we get through by tomorrow night. Allow me time to input those players onto rosters, then start from there.

21 slots - 17 starts and 4 bench spots. If we get down near 10 rounds, we should be able to knock it out in an hour or so.

Earlier Sunday would be helpful but if that's an issue with the West Coasters, no problem from me. I'm good with pre-ranking.

Ideally I wish we could get through a couple more rounds live but this is cool.

Really scared on this one. I haven't made one homer pick yet. And, while I've only taken a few fwds so far, I think that will be, overall, the easiest position to fill. And since this league only covers regular seasons games...

6.3 Marc Andre Fleury - G - PIT

Nothing except very vague answers...

Quote:
Kris Letang out with lower-body injury. Will not skate rest of weekend & will be re-evaluated back in Pittsburgh, per coach Bylsma

Quote:
Bylsma unsure on whether Letang's lower-body injury will be short-term or extended until his re-evaluation.

They are on a "team bonding" trip at West Point (they did this previous in 2008 and 2009). They've been skating, in addition to off ice training. He left the ice today after going into the boards.

Best guess is ankle, which hopefully it's a precautionary thing, and not the 2 months Crosby missed in 2009 when doing the same thing.

Playing by ear here. Not sure I can start the live draft mid-round, and not sure we'd make it fully through round 7 here before tomorrow night.

Believe me, I want him to be healthy and do well.

He's the one guy we have no replacement for. One of Crosby/Malkin out, you still have the other. And you have enough solid wingers in Neal, Kunitz, Dupuis to ease the replacement into the top 6.

Outside of Erik Karlsson, I don't think anyone transitions from D to O like Letang. As many times as people say he benefits from playing behind Crosby and Malkin, and of course he does, anyone would...those 2 benefit from playing with him. He regularly tracks guys down, picks the puck, and snaps a pass blue line to blue line to 87 or 71.

That makes sense. I'll just make the one pick then.
