After the Classic and Roto prospect drafts are finished. Two at once is nuts enough. I’m losing track of who has been picked and who hasn’t in each league.

It's an interesting draft this year. Lots of differences between our rankings and the way the NHL teams drafted. Be prepared to grab guys you want rather than let them fall. Or, be prepared for guys you don't expect to fall to drop into your lap.

I’m very surprised how it went this year to be honest. More so than any other draft

We either draft slow like we’ve done in the other two drafts and GMs complain about people taking time or we run it with 10 mins for each pick over a weekend, we don’t start early and nobody gets longer time periods to make decisions which makes others complain.
Every year GMs freak out about wanting to get an early start on the drafts. We could start them the day after the NHL draft is over and some of you would want to start before that. Others always say what’s the rush. It’s really tiring year after year having to hear the same complaints.
I’m through caring or trying to satisfy everyone. This is how we’re drafting this year. Fantrax notifies everyone they are up. If GMs start sandbagging for 2 days I’m just going to reduce the times down. If necessary, I’ll stop the draft completely and run it with set 10 minute timeslots if we’re running out of time. the advantage of Fantrax is you can set an order and have Fantrax autopick. Don’t like it, sell your picks, don’t draft anyone, or quit.

Okay, since I am new to this league... Just want to confirm two things:
1) We are using Fantrax to draft, correct? Just based from what I am reading above 2) Can we use any of the picks (namely the later ones) to select a roster player rather than a prospect? Is that allowed?

Prospect draft, prospect picks only. We’re using Fantrax as there is only one draft, similar to how we use Fantrax for the FA draft in Classic.
