2021 Draft Discussion

[Brian]

who is this Gersimyuk guy?

I was just about to post

Was going to say an overage Russian goalie that Mik isn't familiar with? Seems like a bad pick, until I realized you guys were making fun of the typo.

Ha! Sorry for the typo, I hadn't had any coffee yet. Also, he's only 17, so not an overage Russian goalie. A very young Russian goalie. I don't really scout goalies much because they are all voodoo, but I figured this would be a good spot to grab him and see what happens. His stats are excellent.

I'm interested in acquiring a bunch of picks

Tampa goes on the clock at 9:15.

Nice couple of picks there with Elias and Brabanec. Both were high on my list for 128.

Brabanec wasn't making I past 122

For what it's worth, here's my player page for Brabanec:

Does Pittsburgh really have pick 117? Or does that belong to SJS? Fantrax and entry draft order show 2 different things

Edit: think this shows it belongs to sjs

Edit #2: it also seems pittsburgh 5th needs to be moved to sjs in the draft order.

Good catch...that's why we do this redundancy thing between Google and Fantrax. I'll update that after I make my pick.

[Da_Hawks]

I have a 5th and a 7th left. Whoever posts a trade for a 2022 4th gets both.

My waiver pick for an upcoming pick

Remember way back when, those halcyon days of giving KapG a bunch of crap for not making his pick straight away? Good times.

[Shoalzie]

This draft has been on the slow side in stretches but we still finished 4 rounds in less than 2 full weeks. We've got 12-13 days to wrap up these last 3 rounds...seems doable. I am glad we started this a little earlier than planned.

I don't think we need to build in a 4-week window for every draft going forward but you would hope we can get these done in 3 weeks on average even with the extra 7 picks. The ideal pace is to complete a round every 3 days...that would put us basically at a 3 week draft...give or take a day or two.

[Brian]

Yeah, I know. I was just laughing at those of us who jumped on KapG because it took him a couple of hours to make his first pick. We were so pumped and ready to go.

The pace is choppy, but we’re moving along okay, no doubt.

He was jumped on because after a few people told him if he had time to be active in the forum, then he had time to post a pick, he followed that up by saying he would take the full 12 hours he was entitled to just out of spite.
