I'm as anxious as anyone to end this, as you can perhaps imagine!  Updating all the lists is a big chore.  I'm concerned about the people who have fallen behind.  I'm uncomfortable making picks for them because I don't know exactly how many games all their players have, although I believe I now have a list of all their positions.  I'm going to go ahead and confirm the picks already made for taybaijor since no one else picked those players and I've had no word from taybaijor.  I guess I should do the same for killman and the_jsa, leaving aside the very last round in case they suddenly appear this afternoon.

killman gets 4 forwards: Sean Bergenheim, Jochen Hecht, Martin Hanzal, and Alex Kovalev.
the_jsa gets a d-man: Alexander Picard

Lets pick one again tonight, and if there are still missing managers I'll pick for them again.  That will take us through round 19 and leave us with two final nights of two picks each.  Sound good?  Should I drop the idea of a minor league draft?  If I do, the league number might change as I reverse the place holding team.

yeah we could forget the ml draft I think

Hey guys, sorry I have been missing/late with all of my picks lately, my life outside of WIS has been total sh*t. I will continue to do my best to keep up with the draft and I will be entering my teams into the league.

Thanks to everyone that has been making picks for me (even if I override your picks I still appreciate the effort) and again a thanks to cripple for running this crazy town as well as he has been.

PS. I will keep the 4 picks made above for me

Go ahead and make the two missing picks from last night.  I left you that space in case you showed.

Well, killman went and disappeared again.  I'm going to go ahead and get everyone up to date through round 18.

taybaijor: Team Luongo: Sergei Gonchar - D, Team Skinner: Daniel Winnik - C/L
killman: Team Lyndman: Steve Staios - D, Team Lucic: Jassen Cullimore - D
the_jsa: Mark Stuart - D

Round 19 (5:30) C - Marcel Goc

Bernier is gone already. Although he was not on the alpha list.  He's there now.

Round 19 picks: Team A: Eric Fehr - RW, Team B: Josh Bailey - C

Valtteri Filppula is long gone

I see that now.  That's a few players not on the alpha list.  I recommend a string search of page one to check the picks round by round too.

Team Carter - RW - Ryan Shannon

Team Toews - C - Derek McKenzie
