The Everything NHL Thread

My public team could use one too, figures the only 1 seed I didn't get is probably out round 1. It's actually up 6-3 right now (and was up 9-0 yesterday) but my skaters are fewer and inferior moving from yesterday to Sunday. Leading all the tender stats, as long as the other duder doesn't get a shutout I might slide by on +/- and SOG but I am CONCERNED. :(

Getting owned by Richards (figures the week my smogon team is inactive right) and Parise (who I have on my other inactive team). Sheesh.

Hopefully my tending can save me, Fleury and Vokoun have been great, unlike Jean Sebastian-whydidIdraftyou-Giguerre. I'm sure Carl can feel me on this one. Speaking of whom and publics, the villager carls are kicking some ass in our other league, cya in the finals buddy <3
 
I think I am SOL because I am inbetween a rock and a hard place for my goalie stats and then my skaters have been slumping so
 
I think Calgary is making a serious bid for 6th in the west at this point, though I'm rapidly learning that my faith in that team may have been misplaced. Go figure a defense of Regehr, Aucoin, Phaneuf, Pardy, Leopold and others would SUCK.

Speaking of videos and stuff, I see that Ben Eager has been suspended and Malkin got out of his cheap shot scotch free.

Mine is in much worse condition but it is still legible, at least I think!
 
Pretty sure it's stats left to right but I've never had it go past goals and I've been too lazy to look it up this season.

But yeah Psycho/Synre and Aldaron/Green in the semis, should all be pretty interesting. I am still relatively surprised Jackal's trade didn't at least carry up to the second round.

My scrubby bad public team made it to the last round by a ridiculous thin margin (5-4 win, won goals by 2, lost pim by 3, ppp by 1, won gaa by .03) no thanks to Tim Thomas's stupid ass erasing like a .4 lead in s% going into the last day and winning it by like .3, sheesh. In spite of going like 2-2-3 or something last year in my three leagues none of my teams actually managed to make it past the second round, as I didn't win a single playoff game last year somehow (although I'd have beaten Vineon in smogon's consolation game if I'd not been angsting and set my roster), hoping to do a little better this year.

Here's hoping my teams choke a little less this year, lol. I was 1-1-4 going into the playoffs and I think that's pretty accurate as far as roster strength (with that team that nearly lost last week being the 4), but in HtH one week is all that matters so how good your roster is really only so relevant. I should spank my opponent in the 1 seed public, but the other two matches will be hard - my other public team is 1-1 and 10-10 with the team I'm playing and I think his roster is a little better, and vs. Psycho I'm 1-1 and 8-10 (although to be fair I lost 2-7 before my team started spanking everyone) so I think it is entirely possible I'll lose all three again.




I really wanted to post because of the Rask thing though, what fucking incompetent refs. Jesus christ.
 
haha yeah true, I just think that, like most things, if there is a premium paid for the service, it would be much better. Which actually brings me to a point I meant to bring up, how does anyone feel about playing for small amounts of cash next year?
 
Dont know what amount you are thinking off, I won't be in for too much. Should be working on getting a mortgage/buying my first house next year in combination with a sick college debt.

So honestly, I prefer how it like now and own Aldaron's ass for honor.

(If Marty agrees with me and doesnt give up goals against philly too easily)
 
Like 5 tops, but it becomes difficult to manage it you know, I would be okay with 5-10 and then a tiered payout but who knows...
 
So Brent Burns doesn't seem to be coming back anytime soon, so I dropped him for Sami Salo (lol). Didn't really see any other defencemen that were worth picking up, as for some reason my league is stalking up on them (bastards).
