    Okay cool. We made it to ten. Really didn't want the league to stop this 7th(!) season of running it.

    If anyone else wants in, I would be willing to add two more (but probably not just one)

    I can come back this year if you need to round out the number.

    considering I have a team autopick, I don't hate my team, will need to give it a week and see what tweaks I need to make, but overall.... I was expecting worse.

    Seth Griffith, who is from my hometown, was waived by the Bruins and claimed by the Leafs today. This is going to get unbearable.

    Yeah, I was busy and ended up with an autopick team as well. I had ranked a few players so I'm pretty happy with my team.

    Crosby at practice again

    but i like my bench! of James Neal, Tyler Johnson, Mikko Koivu, Brandon Saad, and Pasta, you cut Mikko right?

    As someone playing in an adult rec league all summer, hockey never left.

    If you love the sport but have never played it, take some skating lessons. It really deepens your appreciation of the NHLers.

  • BurtletoyBurtletoy Registered User regular
    Yes.

    Also, who is pasta?

    yeah, folks, unless the player you're talking about is a league wide star, we're unlikely to know your local nicknames for people...

    Is it sad that for a second I thought "Pasta" referred to Pacioretty?

  • wunderbarwunderbar What Have I Done? Registered User regular
    But can we just establish that Marc Edward Vlasic can/should always be referred to as Pickles, since that's the best one in the league.

    Blackhawks only user -er nicknames, which makes it easier

    Eichel with the high ankle sprain, 4-6 weeks probably.

    After being held scoreless in the third period, the question must be asked.

    What's wrong with Auston Matthews? When will he break out of his scoring slump?

  • wunderbarwunderbar What Have I Done? Registered User regular
    earlier this year Matthews was on pace for 492 goals. Now that's down to 328. This is a massive slump.

    meanwhile in Edmonton the Flames appear to have forgotten to bring their goaltenders with them on the trip.

    It's ok. Looks like Edmonton still knows how to botch a decent lead.

    Wow, the goalies missed the bus for the Toronto game last night.

    Then Flames-Oilers go and rack up 11(!) total.

    Caps-Pens tonight!
