At first everyone was shocked "no way what the hell" and now it seems like everyone is going "let's just move on with the draft, let him pick JM if he really wants to".

I want to give Bill a chance to prove us all wrong, so let's just move on as that's what everybody seems to want. It just feels so wrong and dirty to get to pick McJesus at 3rd overall but what the hell.
I would rather spend $10 million on 2 players that get 60 to 70 points each than 1 player that MIGHT get 100

Weird to see one team’s starter and backup in the 1st round.

I thought Saros would fall to me... Damn Buffalo picked him early, but he'll be a stud starter soon.

Obviously would have been nice to see Buffalo's 2nd pick before the night as well but I guess he's gonna wait till the morning... :-/

Something that was agreed on in the WhatsApp group: For the first 5 rounds you can change your autoed pick if you want to (as these first picks are very crucial), but for the remainder of the draft auto picks cannot be changed like the original plan was. It would become a mess if it was allowed for all the draft and there must be some incentive for GMs to be on for their picks or to send lists so they don't get autoed.

I do think it is early for a backup, but as I said, he will be a stud starter in a year or two, so if you're going with the patient approach, it's a brilliant pick.

All these young studs going one after the the other... incredible draft, never seen anything like this before. Everyone planning for the long term, not short term. Awesome. Can't believe top guys like Sid, AO and Geno still there and probably will be for a while with the way things are going.

Bill, Ristolainen... what a great pick! Should have taken him with my pick... should have known someone takes him soon. Oh well.

Gonna go outside with my son. When I'm back in an hour, I'll see if I have any offers on my pick. If I have, I'll make a quick trade and if not, I'll pick immediately.

So if Dahlin was chosen, I take it we're not doing an Entry Draft?

Yeah Darren. Will be interesting to see when the likes of Zadina, Svechnikov etc start going, now that I potentially opened the floodgates.

I wanna remind everyone that for the rest of the draft we are on a 6 hour clock. The draft clock still stops for 2 hours during the night.


We also would like to announce a minor change what comes to missed picks. When your pick runs out of time, you will be skipped first. However if there are 10 picks made after your skipped pick, then you will be autoed a player, and that autoed player cannot be swapped. So please be more prepared when your pick time is near.
