Image Call it being fortunate. Call it being spoiled. Call it all the right parents conceiving at the right time. Actually, don't call it that - I don't want to think of my parents procreating. Whatever it is you call it, the past three years have had a consensus No. 1 pick emerge by midway through the season. The 2007 NHL Entry Draft appears to be well on the way to breaking that streak.

Image Another week, another ten wonderful prospects. Since I love this kind of thing like Kings fans love Dan Cloutier being on the IR, I'm not ready to end this next week. But it's up to you, dear readers. Is 30 enough? A top 60, maybe? How about 90? Or somewhere in between? The greatest advantage one can have in the world of fantasy hockey is knowledge. Well, that and someone else having drafted Clouts.

At least one pick in the 21-30 range will change hands, fodder for a deadline deal or part of a move on draft day. And fans will love every minute it- once they know who they've drafted. And, by popular demand, the fantasy potential of the Bugg Bytes Top 30!

The Keeper Trade Conundrum

By J.P. of Japer's Rink It's that time of the year again - the race for your fantasy league's title is whittling itself down to a few contenders and, if you're in a one-year league, the pretenders are working on their fantasy baseball draft prep. If you're in a keeper league, though, the pretenders are looking to the future. Either way, there is a growing fear among the teams at the top that one (or more) of the teams at the bottom will make a trade that will fundamentally shift the balance of power at the top in a way that's not in the best interest of the league. You know the trade I'm talking about – the one that results in name-calling, threats to quit the league and crying like a girl watching Titanic.

It takes a special personality, character and mental make-up of an individual to willfully allow someone to blast a piece of galvanized rubber directly at them.

It takes an even more special person to keep coming up with ways to keep the disk from getting passed them.

 

 

Phan-tastic!

At every position there are players that immediately come to mind as a poolie’s dream. Left wing: Alex Ovechkin. Center: Sidney Crosby. Right Wing: Jaromir Jagr. Goaltender: Martin Brodeur. Defenseman: Chris Pronger. There is turnover at every position. With these examples, the first two will be there for awhile, whereas the latter three have been there awhile.
