I downloaded the updated TBL 1.2 rosters and decided to try something I hadn't tried yet which is a fantasy draft. I took the Leafs, fired most of their staff and hired Pat Burns to run the team.
Here is what my current lines look like:
Gagne-Marleau-O.Jokinen
Huselius-Allison-Hunter
Sutherby-Halpern-Scratchard
Pandolfo-York-Hagman
Hannan-Regehr
Lukowich-Commodore
Morrison-Orpik
Grahame
Lalime
The goal I had was to target high picks with contracts that are reasonable to slightly underpriced and long term. I have :
Marleau 5.7 for 3 years (not a bargain but reasonable)
Gagne 5.25 for 4 years
Jokinen 5.25 for 3 years
Hannan 4.5 for 4 years
Regehr 2.1 for 6 years !!
Allison 1.8 for 3 years
Halpern 2.0 for 3 years
I am at 7 million under the cap right now so I should be able to spend money to do something about those terrible goalies in a year or two if necessary.
Any comments on if this looks like a team built to work out well or not?
EDIT: The NHL season preview ranked this team 30th of 30.
Tried a fantasy draft for the first time: how does it look?

Even with those goalies, you should win the Cup easily with the lineup you have 
Oh and don't care about the NHL preview rankings! In the challenge, i was ranked 30th in season 1 and won the President's Trophy and the Cup, ranked 16th in season 2 and lost in game 7 of the Conference Finals after finishing the regular seasons tied for 2nd overall, so they finally decided to rank me 1st for season 3
I've yet to start the playoffs, but already won the President's Trophy.
