By the way, I have no objections to **Danja** getting to exchange a goalie for a defenceman. ---

Still no joy, same error. Try setting the number of players to 11? ---

Can you pick up a defenceman and then drop a goalie? ---

Done. I picked up Roszival. Looks like everything is set. Thanks, Meek. ---

ok - I can’t reset the “moves allowed” back to zero…we all get a trade i guess… but we won’t trade. I’ll just deny any trades upon review as commish. Everything looks set. Good Luck all. GO OILERS and drop the puck! 🙂 ---

Got to agree that **Kid\_A** looks like the cream of the crop. And yes, I am the Jets. Hasek has another year left in him, right? ---

[QUOTE=qwest] Got to agree that **Kid\_A** looks like the cream of the crop. And yes, I am the Jets. Hasek has another year left in him, right? [/QUOTE] I’m watching the wings/pens game right now and i have to say, i don’t have your confidence. He’s already been injured twice, once when Gary Roberts somehow stepped on his glove and got his skate stuck in it and once when the puck took a funny bounce and hit him oddly. Both times he went down on the ice and stayed down for a bit. Also, I disagree. I think Rysto, Key Lime Guy, and ICU812 have the best teams. ---

Sorry, meant to edit this into the above post but ran out of time: **Kid\_A** has Vokoun, who plays for the panthers and will therefore register between 6 and 13 wins this year. ---

[QUOTE=Danja] Also, I disagree. I think Rysto, Key Lime Guy, and ICU812 have the best teams. [/QUOTE] Thanks Danja & sorry about the gender-bender earlier. I like my team quite a bit, but with Visnovsky, Liles, & Bieksa on the back end, I’m probably pretty vulnerable to injuries. ---

I think the ‘steals’/great picks were: Lundqvist at 33 D. Sedin at 35 Cammalleri at 59 Gomez at 62 Havlat at 76 Shanny at 94 Pitkanen at 154 ---

Not bad for a team that was drafted via preranking. I am disappointed that I got Vokoun. It’s definitely my weak spot. ---

[QUOTE=dogbutler] You misspelled “Hurricanes” 😃 [/QUOTE] I almost forgot that there would be someone else who might actually want some of the same picks as me. 😃 Let’s hope both our teams do well! I hope Erik Cole doesn’t get injured this year. I didn’t pick him just for that reason. ---
