I just did a yahoo hockey draft. Here's my team:

C: Ryan Getzlaf; Joe Thornton; Andy McDonald
LW: Scott Hartnell; Alex Burrows; Loui Eriksson
RW: Jamie Langenbrunner; Brad Boyes; Michael Ryder
D: Dan Boyle; Dennis Wideman; Marek Zidilcky; Tom Gilbert
G: Martin Brodeur; Steve Mason; Jon Quick



opinions/feedback?

I don't get the points of the mock drafts, cuz it depends on how many other dudes are doing the mock draft.  I will not disclose my pre-draft plans!

Mock drafts help you practice basically...you get to view some sleepers and such that you might have not known about. I won't mention my strategy either lol.

But this one wasn't a mock draft, it was for a public league lol.

12 teams in public leagues. I had the 7th pick in the draft.

Ohhhh, I guess that's not too bad of a draft then!

[Mo Z. Dizzle]

I was pretty happy with the results.

Thornton is my favourite player, and I can't recall ever having Brodeur on my team lol.

[sav]

Yeah, not sure Brodeur is a good choice. 

[Mo Z. Dizzle]

I think he'll rebound this year...hopefully he won't get injured.

[The-Leak (aka) kingwell (bka) JULES]

Luongo and Brodeur the two best goalies out there!!!!

[MontrealCity's Most]

Luongo and Brodeur the two best goalies out there!!!!

I disagree with Luongo... ithink there is no clear between Luongo, Fleury, Lundqist are pretty much interchangable

Did you really just compare fluery and luongo?WOW

[The-Leak (aka) kingwell (bka) JULES]

Save percentage: last 3 years.

90.6
92.1
91.2

92.1
91.7
92.0


It's a valid argument (Fleury was the first group)

[Jaydc555]

Pittsburgh also won the cup last year and made the finals last year.The canucks have done nothing.Stats dont tell the story.You put fluery in a weaker team and his game getz exposed.Hes an above average goalie but nowhere near elite.Its like saying chris osgood is an elite goalie.

The thing about Luongo, hes played on some good Canucks team that won there division then in the playoffs did nothing. 
i dint mean they are better then him but until Luongo reaches at least the semi finals... the guys i named earlier are inthe conversation no matter how good of a team they have in front of them. LIke it or not Fleury has a cup final and a cup to his resume.

Van's D > Pen's D

Does that even it out a bit?  (Stat wise)
