Thanks Brian, I checked off my sheet at random again this year (no other choice) I did pretty well last year doing that.

Good luck all, and may the best man/woman win.

Did you get my sheet and request for an EMT address?
Nova Prime Taproom
Tap 1: Festa Brew Scotch Ale
Tap 2:
"Fill with mingled cream and amber,
I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious visions clamber
Through the chamber of my brain -
Quaintest thoughts - queerist fancies
Come to life and fade away;
What care I how time advances?
I am drinking ale today." ~ Poe

Only 4 guys out of 14 didn't take Crosby with the 1st pick and nobody took Stamkos. Could be a big advantage to those 4 dudes of Sid goes down this year.

Everyone was likely a bit gun-shy of Stamkos after the start to the season he had last year.
