Bobby Ryan broke his finger so I figured I'd toss him on the 30 day IR. I mean, you need that thing to shoot and pass. Then you remember a healthy hand didn't help him a whole lot in that department this year. Because he's a pile of shit. Then he gets activated and plays 3 days after you IR him. Hat trick incoming.

Don't talk about Cherry Hill, NJ native Bobby Ryan like that.

Gaudreau was supposed to be out for more than a month. Now he's sitting on my IR for another three fucking weeks. I hate our goddamn IR rules.

vonbonds · Post #1105 by **vonbonds** » Mon Dec 05, 2016 9:24 pm

Change them. They're fucking stupid.

New IR rule proposal from the commish himself. Hallelujah!

I got so drunk this weekend I can't remember a few roster moves it took for me to get Toews on the squad besides releasing Stastny...lol

That's the spirit!

Someone tell me when my team got so remarkably awful. I know I've got a couple guys on the decline on there, but jesus

Also, I made a trade, and it was relatively painless. Anything for more talent. I feel like Tavares could be slowly trending down while Galchenyuk could be slowly trending up. Hate the loss of shots, but TK makes it OK.

GoneFullHextall · Post #1109 by **GoneFullHextall** » Tue Mar 07, 2017 1:55 am

made a trade as well.
poked around for some more offensive talent up front but have come up empty so far. still can make a last minute deal if folks are around in the late morning.
I still don't have a Flyer regular on my roster.
might be the reason why I am doing well

I like that trade for you. It's a step back in the short term, but that's irrelevant for where you are.

Bow Tie · Post #1115 by **Bow Tie** » Wed Mar 08, 2017 7:30 pm

Thanks, man. I thought the same thing...kinda surprised Flyers traded Klingberg. I'da jumped on that had he mentioned he was open to it.

In other news, though, I'm really hoping we're about to see the first ever team name trade between vb and gfh.

GoneFullHextall · Post #1117 by **GoneFullHextall** » Thu Mar 09, 2017 1:06 am

kind of wished I added some depth at forward at the deadline.
having Spooner and Turris go down right after the deadline was bad timing. But its my own fault. I waited to long to start thinking about it.
Turris may be a short term thing hopefully.

vonbonds · Post #1118 by **vonbonds** » Thu Mar 09, 2017 7:12 am

I wanted to make a big splash with you :colbert:

I also never pay attention to the rules and didn't noticed the trade deadline was noon and offered it too late :why:

I think at least part of his motivation for moving klingberg was knowing that he had a deal for trouba lined up

I realized after that deal that I only have 3 D prospects left in my whole system. Sanheim better live up to the hype!

VLoo · Post #1120 by **VLoo** » Sat Mar 11, 2017 11:39 pm

5. Rangers 215 pts
6. Devils 214 pts
7. Avs 213 pts

Rangers is rolling me so hard that I'm pretty sure I won't even be able to get into the playoffs if I go 10-0 next week.

CantSeeColors · Post #1121 by **CantSeeColors** » Mon Mar 13, 2017 9:36 am

Excellent. Luongo and Lundqvist both just got hurt on me right after the trade/sign deadline. Perfect timing. I'm relying on a Maple Leaf and an undrafted rookie rolling into the playoffs.

vonbonds · Post #1122 by **vonbonds** » Mon Mar 13, 2017 10:37 am

How do the playoffs work in the league again?

CantSeeColors · Post #1123 by **CantSeeColors** » Mon Mar 13, 2017 11:14 am

Top 6 teams make it, top 2 get a bye week. Really hoping to hang on to my #2 spot so that I can get that week off for a goalie to get healthy.

vonbonds · Post #1124 by **vonbonds** » Mon Mar 13, 2017 12:08 pm

Oh, so I'm in the last spot. My team is so inconsistent I'll get bounced fairly easily if I hang on.

VLoo · Post #1125 by **VLoo** » Thu Mar 16, 2017 2:21 pm

von doing his damndest to hand me the 6 seed.

My team is either on (sometimes) or off (most times). Sucks not having any young D i can drop in when I have injuries too.

VLoo · Post #1127 by **VLoo** » Mon Mar 20, 2017 8:15 pm

Last week I was gonna post if CG even regularly set lineups and now I have to wonder how embarrassed Bow Tie is

vonbonds · Post #1128 by **vonbonds** » Sat Mar 25, 2017 8:23 pm

So glad I made the playoffs. I can't dress enough D and I'm getting demolished 0-10 as of now :donger:

CantSeeColors · Post #1129 by **CantSeeColors** » Sun Mar 26, 2017 5:26 pm

I know that feeling! Our "no signing free agents after the trade deadline" rule is pretty bullshit

vonbonds · Post #1130 by **vonbonds** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 11:24 am

I pulled a 2008-09 Columbus Blue Jackets with my first playoff appearance. I got cooter punched 1.5 to 8.5 last week.

GoneFullHextall · Post #1131 by **GoneFullHextall** » Tue Mar 28, 2017 12:43 pm

between my injuries, suspensions and my inconsistent goaltending I am going to be lucky to do anything in the playoffs.

CantSeeColors · Post #1132 by **CantSeeColors** » Fri Mar 31, 2017 8:49 am

Had too many guys playing last night and had to leave one on the bench. Naturally, he goes off for a goal and 3 assists.

I am pretty sure I lead the league in shutouts left on the bench. I know what you mean.
its great when that happens and the rest of your skaters don't do squat and you lose your matchup because of that one move.

well this is my first time I have ever been in a keeper league title match.
would be nice to win it.

I'll be rooting for you, because you're not the guy who beat me. :crossarms:

vonbonds · Post #1137 by **vonbonds** » Fri Apr 07, 2017 7:20 am

Goaltending is solely going to win the championship week for Les Nordiques des Québec as it looks like he's getting all 4 points this week.

CantSeeColors · Post #1138 by **CantSeeColors** » Fri Apr 07, 2017 9:01 am

Ugh, now I'm even more annoyed about flyers getting such great play out of his guys last week against me

CantSeeColors wrote:I know that feeling! Our "no signing free agents after the trade deadline" rule is pretty bullshit

yeah I can agree with this. it really put some teams in a bind.
also would like to see about adding a cat or 2 to the matchups. like shorthanded points and or game winning goals.

CantSeeColors · Post #1140 by **CantSeeColors** » Sat Apr 08, 2017 3:57 pm

I'm personally not so high on the infrequent stats like that (would maybe prefer hits or blocked shots or faceoff wins or something you can predict better), but I'm all for adding a non-goalie stat or two

VLoo · Post #1141 by **VLoo** » Sat Apr 08, 2017 5:45 pm

Yeah, I think 1 or 2 need to be added to even it out a touch.

GoneFullHextall · Post #1142 by **GoneFullHextall** » Sun Apr 09, 2017 6:39 pm

hits is a random thing too because not every arena tracks hits the same way. I really don't like that stat in fantasy.
we have PP points, we cant have short handed points? would rather have short handed points over hits or block shots. would be ok with faceoff wins.

CantSeeColors · Post #1143 by **CantSeeColors** » Sun Apr 09, 2017 7:19 pm

Short handed points are like shutouts - you get lucky enough to get one, you probably win the week. I don't like stats like that

GoneFullHextall · Post #1144 by **GoneFullHextall** » Sun Apr 09, 2017 7:23 pm

probably, but they are still a scoring stat. the only non scoring stat I really don't mind is faceoff wins. Never been a fan of blocks and hits. stats that aren't tracked the same everywhere should not be part of fantasy matchups.

GoneFullHextall · Post #1145 by **GoneFullHextall** » Mon Apr 10, 2017 11:37 am

first time I ever won a league title in a keeper league.
was getting a bit worried going into Sundays games. but it worked out.

vonbonds · Post #1146 by **vonbonds** » Mon Apr 10, 2017 12:02 pm

Congrats! I knew you had it wrapped up as all you needed were 1.5 points beyond your goaltending which you wrapped up midweek from great performances.

thanks.
goaltending definitely carried me in the championship matchup. SOG got a little close and I don't know if I would of won had Flyers come back and won that cat and it ended 5-5.

vonbonds · Post #1148 by **vonbonds** » Mon Apr 10, 2017 12:39 pm

What's the tiebreaker for situations like that? I'd assume a shots competition broadcast on facebook live between the two contenders.

GoneFullHextall · Post #1149 by **GoneFullHextall** » Mon Apr 10, 2017 1:00 pm

I really don't know what the tiebreaker was. Goals ended up 16-16. Flyers won the assists cat and I easily won the goaltending stats, so I don't know what the tiebreakers were.

vonbonds · Post #1150 by **vonbonds** » Mon Apr 10, 2017 1:32 pm

Then I declare a drinking contest when/if this situation occurs in the future.
