Re-Draft
On the day Billy “the lesser Driscoll” dropped out of the
tournament, the GMs of each team scrambled to put their heads together and
re-draft the same day. Filling the void on the roster left by Billy D was Scott
Finalyson. Orders were re-picked randomly by Ashley Borges and it went like
this.
Jared
Johnny
Brett
Borges
And with the first pick in the draft Jared picked Scotty
F. And so here are the teams for the 2013 Haverhill Cup……(until Scotty drops
out too)
Jared – Scott – Mike W – Brian – Bobby
John – Eric – Billy T – Elliot – Jack
Brett – Ron – Griff – Andrew – Tony
Borges – Nick – Mike D – Brendon – Darrin

How did the picks go? Was it snake draft or did Jared get first pick each round?
Snake order with a twist
yeah it sounded like it took 45 minutes to figure out the "twist". 3 picks in a row...lol.
I think that any team could win, because every team seems to have a critical flaw.
My team will be so gritty. We will be immovable along the fence :)
btw, johnny im more than willing to play 5 on5 this week. i wanna play
No. The order went. 1-2-3-4-4-3-2-1 then (here's the twist) 4-3-2-1-1-2-3-4
i never said 3 picks in a row did actually happen brett.
and Iginla!
So who got the 5th pick Jared or Borges?
Borges did
me, Riley, Brett, JB, JB, Brett, Riley, me, JB, Brett, Riley, Me, Me, Riley, Brett, JB
How are we looking for hockey tomorrow? Seems like we need goalies.
Yeah. Last I Heard, steve is in net. We need one more goalie and ideally a couple more guys
I'll play net!
im out sorry
Iginla slipped through the B's hands. Penguins are pretty stacked
brett you know you could squeeze in saugus and acton tomorrow.
thats what me and borges have been talking about.......among other tihngs.
We have Tony in for tomorrow, and supposedly Steve although he probably will be fairly late. I am waiting to hear from Danno and some others.
So Brett, you are definitely out for tomorrow? Is Darrin able to play, in case Steve is too late?
I like how Jared gets the #1 pick both times and then proceeds to draft a guy who doesn't play. Or hasn't played in a long time. Funny.
Correction Billy, i had the second pick last time, Ron went #1 to Borges in the first draft.
I like how brett was down on ron and tony, and then drafted them both.
I want to play tomorrow too nick, let's make this happen!
Im in. I'll play in Saugus and Acton. Ill just leave Saugus a little before 8. I don't think Darrin would make it. i wouldn't count on him. You can text him and ask though.
Let's be real, if I drafted Ron the first time around I would've been saying how underrated his passing ability is and what a leader he becomes once he steps on the ice. And for Tony I still think him and Bobby are close in skill. But the consensus is that Tony is the second best. Who knows what someone might give for the second best goalie in the tournament.
cause if you do the same order then people can just learn from the mistakes they made in the last draft. cough*Johnny*cough
Oops! My mistake Jared.
However, something tells me you would have taken Billy 1st overall if you had that pick.
I'm not knocking you. Just a funny observation.
My question is Scott and billy so different that the teams needed to be switched? It's not like warren is replacing billy
Do you think Borges would have taken Ron over Scott?
I wouldn't have minded just replaceing Billy with Scott on Johnny's team
but if you're goning to redraft you have to redo everything not just one aspect.
"now his odds of getting a #1 pick two times in a row are significantly reduced"
That's an incorrect statement.
Scott changes the whole draft, Nick and Griff become more valuable and the children become even less valuable, and Borges most likely would have taken scott first so we couldn't just give him to Johnny.
What's the matter brendon, don't like your team?
You got that impression too Jared?
Cool let's have a little debate with some sarcasm!
I love math, especially simple math. We put four names into a hat and drew one out randomely. we all had a 1 in 4 chance to get that pick.
Oh wait! I forgot 17 years ago i was involved in a random 1 in 4 drawing that I won. So that means my chances decreased for this drawing right? Yay for make believe!
I see Brendon, you saw the movie 21 with kevin spacey, and thought that rule applied to to random unconnected drafts. I should never play heads or tails now with JB because it's his turn to win because that's how the world works.
I get it now brendon. So if we were doing a draft for who gets bradleys post game bag of skittles, then it would still be 1 in 4. But since it was for hockey again, his odds go down.
Tell me, did the god of picking paper out of a hat direct Ashley's hand away from picking JB's card?
Brendon you are over thinking it. The point is each individual draft is indepedent and has no bearing on what has happened previously!
It's like how Griff never loses at the credit card game.
Where is Johnny when I need him.
This is actually very funny. Brendon, no matter how many times Ashley picks 1 of the 4 names it's always a 25% chance. I agree it's very unlikely Borges gets 1st pick if you pick them 5, 10 or even a 100 times but no matter what there are always only 4 names to pick.
The simple analogy of a coin toss is the easiest way to explain this. You flip a coin 100 times are you going to get 100 heads or a mixture? It's possible to get 100 heads because it's always a 50% shot every time however unlikely that would be.
According to that premise if I try to do a backflip 100 times on the 101 try I am much more likely to succeed because I have already failed so many times.
thanks for bringing frendon back to us, jared!
weee!!!!!!!
btw frendon, i do not accept yahoo answers (the uk edition) as a viable source.
Wow.
I can't believe I just wasted the last 10 minutes of my life reading that.
It makes me want to blow my head off. Maybe I should try Russian Roulette. Brendon, what are my odds of the gun going off? 1/6? Do the odds increase or decrease if I try again?
My head is starting to spin again. I gotta go....
I want a redraft!!! I got screwed!
Nuts and bolts...
Brendon, Jared was correct, there is a 25% chance each time. If you calculate the odds to get the first pick over the course of multiple drafts it's less than 25%, but each specific draft its 25%.
The Patriots would either have the number one pick because of having a terrible season or because they made a trade for it. JB simply had his name picked out of a hat...nothing special that he did to earn it.
Jonny who is in for tonight? Has danno or anyone else confirmed?
jonny,my mom says im special!
i vote to kick Frendon out of the tournament so that he doesn't have to waste his time worrying about absolutely nothing
Griff, so far only the people on the other post plus Ricky and Steve and Tony in net. I am waiting to hear from danno and his guys, but I am not necessarily expecting anyone.
So that's at least 5 on 5 plus the goalies.
If we kick Frendon out we wont redraft
We would have to redraft. Do you know how good the chances are that I get the 2nd or 3rd pick?
Brendon should play roulette he would make millions!!!
Inside rink btw
