| Message | So are we drafting now? It's like Christmas morning, and I'm awake at 5am waitin for you guys to wake up. Or are we waitin for Goon scouting staff to return from the WJC's before we draft... I'm picturing a bunch of Goon's scouts forgetting to watch the game while they challenge each other to fights in the parking lot, then coming back from the tourney with black eyes, empty notebooks and a copy of last years McKeens. Goon, brace yourself this years picks will leave you dizzy for the second mid-season in a row. ![]() |

| Message | If you're that good at scouting Goon, then why do you need to wait 'till the end of the world juniors to make your pick? |

| Message | Poolguide? Any GM who uses a pool guide is a moron who doesnt have the resources to scout players himself. My resources span the globe, and a pool guide is only used in our staff room as a stress relief technique for a good laugh. Obviosly Philly is on a beer budget for his champagne tastes. |

| Message | ha... Toews and Letang were the result of long hours and hard work. Goon, just stick to Mckeen's pool guide... they'll tell you all you need to know. So... are we drafting? |

| Message | I'm fine with starting tomorrow, I was just curious about the date setting. Are there guidelines as to how long you can take to make your pick? Just wondering if you get into trade offers etc, it can take a day or two, but that also gives the late picks an advantage... |

| Message | FYI - last year's re-draft took place on Dec. 22. This year I proposed it 6 days earlier. I'm disappointed that GMs are using the "I'm not prepared" excuse. We all know that a mid-season draft happens in December. GMs should be preparing for this draft a month ago. (it actually doesn't take that much prep. time Mr. C Dogg - if you work a little bit ahead on it). In any case I proposed a slightly earlier date than last year because of GMs holiday plans and overall less access to computers and the internet. The biggest thing is the fact that these picks we make are to be put into our line ups prior to the Dec. 31st end of month deadline. Your input on the date would be helpful. We can not wait until after the World Jr.s - it doesn't end in time. |

| Message | I just want to make sure I can watch all of Team Canada's games in the World Juniors before making my pick. |

| Message | I for one would have a appreciated a lot more than a few days notice to the re-draft. Not all of us have the ability to spend all of our spare time with the FHL and are constantly on top of things. |
