Fantasy Hockey

Anyone playing this year? I forgot about it and just signed up for 2 drafts today. Excited about my first, as I pick 1st, thus Ovechkin

(this is Yahoo so LWs are hard to come by). Probably still end up shit at the end as I suck at fantasy hockey but meh.

How has your drafts gone, who do you have, is it a public or private league, etc?

just finished my first draft of the year, any thoughts? Like I said I'm not hardcore into it (mostly just the Yotes) so struggle more then with Football

Centers: Statsny, Zajac, Oshie
Left Wing: Ovechkin, Cammalleri, Taylor Hall
Right Wing: Hemsky, Doan, Knuble (by far my weakest position)
Defense: Phaneuf, Ehrhoff, McCabe, Ray Whitney, Derek Morris
Goalies: Jimmy Howard, Tuukka Rask

I really wanted Boyle, but the person in front of me took him :/

Not bad.. What are some of the free agents left?

**Red_Lizard2** · 10-08-10, 08:59 PM

going by yahoo rankings:
Olli Jokinen
Langenbrunner
Bourque
Gomez
Filppula
Jason Arnott
Devin Setoguchi
Jason Pominville
Dennis Wideman
Chris Kunitz

and down from there, probably some good ones in the lower ranks. I forgot I was going to take a look at Pominville, supposedly he was playing the point on the top PP line in pre-season.

Yea really not much left it seems like.

If Tyler Ennis or Jeff Skinner are still around snag em up.

oh and Michael Del Zotto on D.

Ovechkin is the only name I recognize.....I think that Jimmy Howard works at the smoothie king in my town....

sorry, lol. I used to know a lot of players back in the day when I played the NHL games for SNES. I used to watch it a lot on TV as well. Loved the Red Wings and Black Hawks.
