Hockey Draft Preparations

Although I've been participating in Hockey leagues for longer than any other fantasy sport, I always have the hardest time every year in preparing for these drafts. NHL player movement is simply too volatile, and fluke seasons are all too common. The only sure-fire draft picks come in the first round with names such as Roy, Forsberg, Jagr, Sakic, and CuJo. Beyond that, almost anyone is a question mark.

I've spent the last hour or so reading everything I can find regarding NHL lineups this year, and I've nearly exhausted all of it. Considering that I'm also beginning my first keeper league this year, I may be about to screw myself over for the next three-to-five years. Kinda like getting busted for possession, I suppose.
