You keep missing the fact that I’m pairing them with someone who is defensive responsible.

OSU-Alabama is a shootout.

I’m loving the espn2 broadcast version
Orlovsky is especially great, in a Tony Romo way
And I’m liking Marcus Spears a lot too
The ladies are more than holding their own as well

Cody Eakin isn’t a bad offensive center. He just isn’t the traditional shut down 3rd line center. Make 3 scoring lines and one shut down line

Hall Eichel Tage
Skinner Staal Cozens
Olofsson Eakin Reinhart
Reider Sheehan Okposo

Move Olofsson and Skinner if you want

- Stripes77

Are all of the categories counted equally ?

If so I did not draft enough truculence

I like the espn2 version better than traditional game broadcasts where the playcaller just tells us exactly what we are seeing
Ex: Jones drops back, throws deep to Smith, touchdown!
That’s great for radio, but i don’t need the obvious told to me
This 4 person discussion is MUCH more interesting to me

It’s 21-22 now
I don’t think Eakin sucks,
but he’s also slotting in on the new LOG line
So he’s not one of the Top3 Centers (on a “scoring” line) regardless

Looking like pick3 to Miami
Tua needs a pass catcher like him
Makes too much sense to reunite them

I suck at hockey


c
mcdavid, barzal, larkin, monahan, nelson

rw
kane, gallagher, radulov, hornqvist, tatar

lw
svechnikov, johnny hockey, forsberg, arvidsson

d
hedman, pieterangelo, krug, oel, giordano, ellis, slavin

g
hart, kuemper, francouz


I always pick a bunch of wingers that can play either wing and it looks good on paper


I expect 7th place

No I’m mad Lazar is Skinners center

That’s been my point all along. You don’t handcuff your second best even strength goal scorer with Curtis Lazar or Reilly Sheahan as his center.

I’ve never cared that he’s not on line one. I care that he’s being wasted with scrubs.

Anyone wanna guess who the lowest ranked player taken was? And I give mad props for the pick. Balls the size of church bells.

Cozens isn’t a scrub though
And Eakin looks to be locked into the LOG line Center spot

We don’t have 9 other “good” forwards

Eakin is NOT a defensive center. Playing him as such would just prove my issue with Ralph. Playing against his players strengths.

So handcuff Skinner and your young rookie with a center who is awful?

Makes sense.
