NHL 2015, 1995 20th Anniversary Edition Survivor League Fantasy Draft (Pruitt on clock)

Anybody who would like to participate, pick a team from the 2014/2015 NHL season. Only 1 team per person, up to 30, but we'll cap the deadline for end of day Friday.
...have all entered into an NHL Survivor Pool whereby I play rounds of games with all of your teams against a random CPU team in EA NHL 2015 on XBox 360 until there's only one team standing who we will call the champion. Send $10 to jerloma @ gmail via PayPal or Google Pay.
This isn't like Sega. I'm brilliant but the CPU ain't no slouch. Super-disciplined and randomly goes insane with moves I don't even know how to do.
There's more...I'll only play teams in the league so when I hit the random button for my opponent, if it's one of the 17 teams not in the league, I'll hit it until it is. Now, if your team is the CPU team and it beats me, that does not matter at all as far as the survivor pool. Why does it matter you ask?
There's more...you have also signed up for a fantasy league within this league. Obviously you get any fantasy points that I score but if the CPU picks a team with any of your fantasy players, you'll also accumulate those points. So now, if your team loses early in the survivor pool...you still have a chance to be a champion and win $65!
You'll snakedraft 5 players each, 1C, 2F, 2D. 2 for G. 1 for A. Draft order as listed above in order of sign ups.
There's more...You're coach as well as GM so if you'd like to change he lines on your team, you're welcome to do that. Only before tournament starts though.
There's more...at the end of every round of games, I will post a Youtube highlight video of each game revealing both your teams' game result and players fantasy points, as well as listing Survivor Results and fantasy stats/standings.
The highlight reel is going to be fucking bad ass. Trust me.

Oof, glad I missed this one. Are they allowed to Google names for the draft, because I couldn't name a player at every position.

Christ, I don't have time to research OHL stats for this.

I was going to ask why we weren't trying to do the draft on Zoom but now I realize that it's 2015.

Ahh. 2015. In that case, I’ll take Ovechkin.

Assuming we're being strict with positions and not "I'll take Crosby and put him at LW", I'll go Tarasenko.

Based on the images he provided, is Jerloma only expecting you to pick from those sets or is he only letting you pick players from your team. There's no realy way to know. But The Blues are not on the images included in his flickr album, which may make Tasarenko ineligble.
Not only that, but he can't get any points because according to jerloma's rules, the blues will never be picked.
I think you are supposed to only pick from those teams, guys.

Your integrity won't let you Viking pick Crosby.

Oh ... I kinda thought the entire season would be going on in the background with him just playing our teams but upon re-read I think you're right. If that's the case, I'll take Stamkos.

If we were tracking slewfoots and mumps instead of goals and assists, Crosby all the way.

Remember, Jerloma is a Penguins fan, too.

1. Ovy - SCK
2. P Stamkos - D
3. Sid C - Rass
Yes, you're only picking from the teams in the league which is why I posted those screen shots, but now BFJ is out so either someone else has to take the Caps or SCK has to pick again. I'm just going to make an executive decision and give Ryan the Caps as to not make a mockery out of this. He doesn't care about the Wild.
