2006 TSN Fantasy Draft

Do you think the Senators should make a trade? Who do you think will win the Stanley Cup? What do you think of the Flames' chances this year? These are just some the questions often asked of TSN's panel of hockey experts, but they're rarely ever asked, "Who do I take first in my fantasy pool?" With that in mind, TSN's Bob McKenzie, Pierre McGuire, Dave Hodge, Glenn Healy and Keith Jones were charged with the task of building their own fantasy teams. The parameters were simple - all five TSN personalities took part in an eight-round snake-style draft, and had to select three forwards, two defencemen, a goaltender, one rookie and a sleeper pick. See how your fantasy projections compare to those of our hockey experts.

ROUND 8 - 'THE SLEEPER ROUND'

Synopsis: The final stanza allows our panel to grab a sleeper. Who's going to be the fantasy dark horse in 2006-07? Dave has faith in Eric Lindros to make an impact in Dallas, while Keith thinks Kristian Huselius could put up big numbers if he's hooked up with forwards like Alex Tanguay and Jarome Iginla. Pierre goes with Jochen Hecht, who could put up better stats with Buffalo's run-and-gun offence. Bill Guerin had an off-year last season with the Stars, so perhaps a change of venue can help both him and Bob McKenzie. With the last pick, Glenn takes potential Alex Ovechkin linemate Richard Zednik.
