Asunto: I.1

Girtauts Šantars - was 17 6/6

Is he buyable? Is the 55-80 range acceptable to you?

Message me, don't negotiate sales on the forums. I'll post at a value south of what you've mentioned. We can discuss a time when you can be online over private message.

I also recieved a sweet goalie offer. But they look too good for my cash

I.I spam. oh no got caught.. I still need a LW and RW tooooooooo as Im ushered out.

I have nice youths to sell. Anyone not in line up can be sold. I am still looking Tierneys replacement.

hockey.powerplaymanager.c... 19 5/6 rd

Despite being outshot RCR won 2-1 on the road with a critical final-minute breakaway save with their goalie pulled. Really pleased I went with win bonuses this year

Ah lost ot with 45 seconds left

Final wave of scouting is in. I have my first overall selection ready. Now, do I nickname him Teddy or something to do with being the first ever I.1 draft pick? Perhaps "Garry Monahan" ?

arg... now I know you have the only A i had scouted.

Got him on the last day. Don't really need his position but seems like it is a waste picking a B player with the first ever pick. I guess I know how the Oilers feel: "Well, we don't need another good forward prospect, but he's the best there is and can always be traded."

...

"With the first overall pick the Edmonton Oilers select, Nail Yakupov."

Famous last words...

FYI - First Overall Pick:

381 OR - 87-54-54-60-69 (O/S/P/T/A) - 3* across the board.

Unscouted (his scouted values given my level of scouting):

94/92/94/50/53/51/96

Useless...

I am going to be the bigger man here and follow up your comment.

After the conclusion of the draft I feel similar to what you said. Regardless of wealth, if "A" players are 75 AQ guys, or as in my case, guys sub-400 OR and with critical Qs in the low-50s, and there is only 1 6/6 A player... I can see the draft not being nearly as active next time around.

mikpj, I don't agree with the way you went about stating your thought, but the content of it is just. Here's hoping things are adjusted for future drafts. I have no doubt they will be, it is just a shame my 1st overall pick early in the season was wasted on a draft pool of learn-to-skate players.
