[Fraser]

Good season Josh. Got me on one of my better weeks

[Shoalzie]

Jesus.

Wsh, for, la, cgy all eliminated first round.

Crazy opening week...all 4 teams were definitely contenders. Josh had a rough week...Thom, Steve and Mike didn't have bad weeks, just got outplayed.

Thought it was interesting that in only half the matchups the winning team had the better goaltending.

[thom54]

fuck me. I think my team would have beaten any other one in a matchup but Nick's this week, it put up the best skater stats in the league and still lost b/c of Greiss getting pulled by Coach ?DOUG weight while facing Toronto's soft schedule. Fuck it's frustrating.

Losing games from Hanzal and Irwin hurt the SHTOI and fuck Beagel and oshie getting PIMS to win it. fuck..... so devastated!!!


Good job Nick !Your team went bonkers, had the best week in the league overall. You definitely should not have been a 7 seed.

[The BBKL Insider]

Matthews and McDavid 1 pt and -6 combined....yikes!!

Worse than that, my stat line yesterday, 0 points minus 7

[dave1959]

Lee would have been in had he left Montoya on the bench.

[kimmer]

Cgy bbkl disappointing.

[CasperX22]

btw.. good match casper

Yep. Wound up a lot closer than it should have been.

[kyuss]

there's some mercy after all!?

You act as if you are a victim.

oh, I guess I should be celebrating the injuries of Darling, Turris, T.Johnson, Hornqvist and Parayko happening timely for my first playoff week

I know we are!

still wasn't enough, not much to celebrate for you either it seems

[kyuss]

Granlund nicely scores, Coyle hits the post and Haula wastes a clean breakway (fuuuuuuck!)

Can't say this game isn't entertaining...

Somewhat glad Granlund scored... Panarin's would have been the GWG if Craw didn't allow another one. Keeps the margin at 1 and my hopes to tie it are still there.

well your team didn't score anymore so I took the close offensive stats (G, GWG, STP) and survived the scare despite Crawford's heroics on Sunday.

Hopefully we'll have less injuries riddled matchups in future playoffs, good challenge anyway.

Matthews and McDavid 1 pt and -6 combined....yikes!!

Worse than that, my stat line yesterday, 0 points minus 7

was shocked to see the outcome this morning.. was like 'what was I missing?'

then I opened your lineup from this past night, saw that and was.. 'oh ok, now I get it'

Congrats Chris!

Awesome battle man, final changes to be a little more competitive and focused on the now appear to have paid off.

Don't think it came down to *just* those PIMS, but damn 9-6-1 is TIGHT when a few of the categories are that snug. I was worried when my +/- dipped.
Great week to watch. And as someone who lost a 8.5-7.5 battle by 4pims (sitting in my minors event worse, won points by 8 and dressed Aho over Bennet who had 7 pims). H2h is a b-eotch
