Alright gentlemen, this is the big show. The fantasy hockey league that we've all been waiting months (if not years) for. I have to say that I think I've done a pretty fucking fabulous job of setting the league up, but be sure to tell me what you think when you get there. I will take all of the...

Tonight at 8 PM eastern. Hard to believe, considering he's still signed to an Nhl contract, but he hasn't played in three full seasons and that makes him eligible. What can you say? He was probably the most feared and hated defenseman of all-time. Quite frankly, the 2010 playoff run was the...

There are 18 teams in the Nhl with a positive goal differential. 16 of them will make the playoffs. One in each conference will not. Our record vs. these teams: 21-17-10 Vs. all others: 12-12-8 This includes a 7-1 combined record against Pittsburgh/Washington, but a 3-7-3 record against...

I have to say, I think we're severely underutilizing one and overextending another. This opinion of mine is not just based on the last game, where it was glaringly obvious to me, but the last eight games altogether. Plain and simple, Michael Raffl is not a fourth line player. He's doing a...

It's time to build momentum and move up in the standings and November provides us with that opportunity. After glancing at the schedule, our next six games are all against losing teams and we only play three winning teams in this entire next month. Two of those games are at the end of the...

I've been watching the Ducks play the Leafs tonight and this kid is putting on a show. He has two dandy assists to Kessel (the second clinched a hat trick) and just a couple minutes ago drove wide with speed to draw a penalty shot, then pinged the backhanded attempt off the crossbar. He now...

Regardless of how this ends, I believe in this team moving forward and I'm proud to say that I never once threw in the towel on the season. It looked awfully dire before this winning streak, but now our boys are playing with a lot of heart, purpose and desperation. The game this afternoon is...

@ Montreal: No passion, constantly out-hustled and lost puck battles all over the ice with only one very lucky goal offensively. The end result was a 1-4 loss that should've been more like 0-8. Our boys basically never left NJ after that crushing loss. We weren't even ready to play a game that...

Where are they now: Shjon Podein - Philadelphia Flyers - News He may have only played for the Flyers for about four seasons, but he clearly understood what we're all about. I love that about the sports culture in Philadelphia and how we all approach being a fan. We expect nothing less...

The following is a list of the average finish of our top 12 drivers over the previous 10 races (in order of points position): Hamlin: 13 Johnson: 14.3 Stewart: 16.4 Keselowski: 7.1 Biffle: 11.9 Bowyer: 11.7 Earnhardt Jr.: 12.4 Kenseth: 14.5 Harvick: 13.2 Truex Jr.: 10.3 Kahne: 8.4...

Anyone have tickets to the game this saturday or know where I can get them cheap? I'm going to be there one way or another, but I'd really prefer not to pay $70 per ticket for lower bowl when I've been able to get the cheap $10 seats fairly routinely. Also, I believe my friend and I are...

I don't know if anyone else noticed it, but this line was completely dominant tonight from start to finish. They could be the first or at least second line on any given Nhl team if they keep up the offensive pressure and cycling they had going this evening. It was truly something to behold...

G I R O U X :fencing:

Our power play was dreadful last season, especially down the stretch. It operated at 16.6%, which was good for 19th overall. That's pretty much unacceptable for a playoff team stacked with offense. Well, get ready for that to change. The unit of Giroux, Jagr, Simmonds, Pronger and Meszaros...

Richard Petty 200 David Pearson 105 Jeff Gordon 85 I would like to be the first to congratulate Jeff Gordon on his milestone 85th win this afternoon at Atlanta. He had the dominant car last week at Bristol and wasn't lucky enough to pull it out. This week he had the dominant car again and drove...

Any updates or word on the fifth installment of our fantasy league? I sent a message to the original creator today and we'll see what happens. If he can't make it, one of us could easily do it up instead. Regardless, there should be plenty of us available to form a league whether it's on yahoo...

I think it's a foregone conclusion that Claude Giroux will lead the team in scoring this coming season, but will he improve on his recent 76 point campaign and if so, by how much? We've seen him grow leaps and bounds over the past two seasons and suddenly with the trading of Carter and...

C Mark Scheifele of the Barrie Colts. At least that's what the ESPN Insider Mock Draft thinks. I tend to agree however that we should be gunning for a defenseman at that spot. Why on earth would we acquire Schenn at center only to draft yet another center with our best pick? I understand the...

For as much shit as we've given this guy during the regular season in the past, he sure as hell rises to the occasion come playoff time, especially against his former team as it may appear. They showed this stat in the espn recap of the last game. Briere has more playoff points (89) than any...

Still leading the conference as of this morning. Even if Washington wins tonight to overtake us by a lone point, we will have three games in hand and still more wins. Speaking of wins, we own the new and improved wins tiebreaker over every other team and it's not at all likely that anyone will...

I'm going to make up for not being a total REP-whore like the rest of you with this very thread. I've been playing this hockey sim at METROPOLIS HOCKEY ORGANIZATION - FREE ONLINE HOCKEY MANAGER for about the last 15 months and I'm having a lot of fun with it to be honest. Every website could...

The main reason that we've had to watch two frustrating losses and a nailbiter of a win in the last three games (besides the fact that there have been a buttload of penalties called) is that our power play and penalty killing have gone to shit. Now I can't get to espn at work, so I don't know...

Does anyone by chance have a few tickets in the lower level that they're looking to sell for the home opener on October 11th? If not, maybe one of you at least has a suggestion as to where I can get them at the best price. Thanks! :cool:

Free agency is just minutes away and I'm hearing now that we're trading a second round pick to Tampa for Meszaros. I'm not sure whether that's even possible as his cap hit is $4 million. We'll see. :eek:

Thanks for the free pick! :D
