Draft Start Time Poll?

[Virtual Jarmo]

Want everybody to answer this. Majority wins. Voting ends at midnight PT Thursday night (or 3 am. Friday for East Coasters).

As usual, we'll have a live chat next Friday night during the NHL draft. I'll start it at 6:30 and we'll chat til whenever.

Be aware that you're voting based on your availability. I'll also expect lists of who you want if you think you won't be able to make your pick.

More instructions on draft chat/lists/time limits will be posted in the Draft Class & Updates thread.

I'm voting for Saturday as I'm going to be busy most of Friday night. Now you're all going to vote Friday just to be antagonistic.

I don't really care whether it's noon or 3 PM though.

[Commish Bub(NYR)]

Voted for Saturday at noon, but 3pm works just as fine, should it come down to a tiebreaker. (Feel better now, Dan?)

[Calgary.Flames]

Voted for Friday 9pm only to piss Dan off.

[DallasSean]

Voted for Saturday, 1200 Eastern team, because I'm five hours ahead of you lot and Friday 2100 EST would equate to two in the morning. Now, I'm not saying I wouldn't be awake then, but...yeah.

Sorry buddy. As a consolation, you can have one Nail Yakupov.

Just send it to me in a PM. I'll copy and paste your words.

Rubbish consolation. I suggest he have this shiny new Ryan Murray instead and not that stinky Russian who smells.

Pardon? No, I don't know the meaning of the phrase "ulterior motives", now shut up and go with the nice man holding the lead pipe.

Is this a game of Clue(do)?

Possibly. Does anybody get their kneecaps broken in Clue(do)?

[Virtual Jarmo]

Possibly. Does anybody get their kneecaps broken in Clue(do)?

Worse. People get killed in Clue(do).

[DallasSean]

Worse. People get killed in Clue(do).

Nah. I want people taught a lesson, not killed to death.

[Montreal Canadiens]

Haha I was the lone vote for 12 pm......I don't have a pick anyways.

[jamesredwings]

I have no picks. Remember the Ovy trade? Also second rounder is gone for Schneider if trade is approved.

I am away to sunny Florida for a whole week of beaching so the pick trades sort of fits in with my schedule...

Have fun guys!

[GoJetsGo]

Voted for Friday at nine. Then again I have no picks until July so my relevance is minimal.

My only idea/suggestion would be to announce the first pick during the chat on Friday to get the excitement going into Saturday. aka The one present you get to open on Christmas Eve.

[Oilers_GM]

doing first aid training this weekend - go figure - so i'd prefer to start Friday - course #11 could end up being on Saturday anyway then. I'd love to be there for the draft though.
