Fantasy Hockey 2013 - Draft Recap

With the shortened 2013 season only days away, my money league has drafted. I'm a little puzzled by some of the picks, but I'm especially happy with my team.

The only mistake I made was in not taking a goalie earlier. However, I quickly remedied that by trading Henrik Zetterberg for Jimmy Howard, so my team is pretty strong overall.

But without further ado, the draft:
