S39 VHL ENTRY DRAFT PRE-GAME PARTY

 

Bonjour/Hello/Allo everyone! If you haven't experienced a draft party and want too, your time to shine is now. Well not exactly now but at 1:00 P.M. PST/4 P.M. EST, Tomorrow (Friday July 11th, 2014) you can experience all that the draft has to offer. I, your host Joey Kendrick will run through the VHL Entry Draft gauntlet and give you the run-down on everything from where players will go (mock draft), what surprises we may have, player evaluations, scouting reports and much more! Also not to be outdone, but I will have interviews with draftees, GM's and casual fans from different areas of North America. This will be recorded and you will be able to listen to it at a later date if you so choose or simply can not attend. I should let you know all this will be LIVE!. Now what other podcast is currently going live with all their listeners? None except this one. I encourage everyone to grab a carton of milk, open a bag of Lays Potato Chips and enjoy the show! (Betcha can't listen just once!)

 

*If you want go check out the offline station right now and register to talk in the chat room and listen when the time comes!

Care to post what your mock was for those of us that were busy? No time to listen tonight and headed out of town for the weekend tomorrow.

I went over a lot of things, never truly did my own mock draft. I did read off a mock from Mike but got lost in the shuffle and never created my own. I did do the draftee rankings at the start of the season and end of the season and reviewed who climbed and dove.

When I mentioned in the other thread that I knew something you didn't, it wasn't about trading 2 (although that had been on the table with two teams, but at that point I'd already for the most part settled on keeping it - one team wasn't offering me enough, and with who they were taking, I couldn't deal with the other team and risk losing both my target and my backup target). The thing I knew was that Yumalatopinto was going to FA, hence defense being a bigger need for me than forward. Being in the LR, I had known that a bit before FA opened up, and as you're not in the LR, you would simply not have access to the same information.

 

Also, I have traded down (or out entirely) in the past:

But I talk to people and still was told a little bit. So not entirely true there. Also trading out may have put you in this situation where "I need guys"....but I might just be stating the obvious.

Well, I had 2 in a top-3 heavy draft, one was going to be gone, one didn't want to come to me, and one thought he was going to be on welfare. In theory, even Vlasis might have been better than a season of Yuma, but there are future considerations as well...
