Playoffs - Week 1

[Lee]

Get in line.

[Shoalzie]

Meh, Lee is very much into this stuff...I dig it. I do like to see how my guys are doing for this last month but it doesn't matter that much.

At this stage, I probably watch my prospects more than I watch my NHLers. I'm reading AHL, junior and college boxscores like a fiend. I don't have an early pick so I'm not tracking the top draft prospects.

[Lee]

But what if McDavid falls to the second round and you know nothing of him!

[Shoalzie]

McWho?

(I don't pick until the 3rd round, by the way)

Bennett is essentially my 1st round pick this year and I'm loving what I've been seeing right now. I could've had a shot at Eichel or McDavid but I don't think Bennett is a bad option either.

[Arian The Insider]

Eichel and McDavid are way better prospects. I like Bennett though.

I have , it's not the same.

Just fond memories of a non playoff team CBS showing a blank match up with stats as they did in the regular season.

Fantrax does this too, someone with commish powers just has to set up teams with a bye and it will show just their stats on the live scoring.

[Bruyns]

luke is running the risk of going over goalie starts for the week as he's started 2 starters. Risky move that could pay off or backfire. I believe once you have 5 goalie starts in any given week you void all goalie stats?

If Luke ends up pulling the crazy upset and loses due to goalie GP that would suck.

Make it so, admins ;o

Please.

[kimmer]

I hate luke too

Here we see the majestic Paul in action:

How many Admins do we have on Fantrax? Dave or Matt should be on that list.

it would as he could easily upset me. I dont have my 2 best h2h players for the week in Palat and Little. So this could be his week. For his sake i hope Lindback doesn't get 3/4 starts and Lehtonen getting 2/2 starts.

if that 4 games limit was a hard one (like, erasing all stats if exceeded) that would be retarded imho, and this case makes for a good example:

Luke's better G only plays 2 games, and while he has another G on his roster he should not play him because something out of his control might happen?

I bet I voted against a hard limit when there was a debate over it.
Fact is, I wonder if a resolution was ever reached; if it didn't end up affecting the matchup outcome (which would have forced a resolution to be found), it might have ended up as one of those issues that get discussed without ever reaching a decision and an official regulation.

Eric also has an interesting goalie situation with Mason and Mrazek.

i'm going to be honest, i dont really care if he goes over tbh. If he beats me he beats me, i wont be asking for an overturn because if i actually went on to win the league it would feel like it was a forced win.

Honorable stance, Steven...seems almost unfair for him now to have an illegal goalie situation when it was fine for the regular season. It really all depends on the schedule for the given week for how many games a team can have with their skaters and goalies. Having more GP doesn't guarantee category wins but it doesn't hurt either.

no it certainly doesn't, and one of his goalies plays for the worst team in the NHL, so if he beats me because of better goalie stats he deserves to beat me. I'm not too worried about it to be honest. I expect a close week with Luke as his team pairs up with mine very nicely/close.

should be a fun week
