PLAYOFF WEEK 2 Discussion thread

I need it, I am the underdog this week

Someone who won the division isn’t an underdog always so modest

The team that won the division had Erik Karlsson, Mats Zuccarello and Dylan Larkin on it. And the team that finished way behind didn't have RNH, Rinne etc

[kyuss]

Wait, clock was already moved forward 1 hour over there?

[Shoalzie]

Yup. It's currently 2:43 p.m. (Eastern)...we jumped ahead on Sunday morning.

[kyuss]

thx, good thing I found out about that long before the lock...

And Lindgren finally gets called up after MTL realizes Niemi has been a tire fire all year.

First of all, we have the same amount of GP for skaters on the week. You have less GP in net because you can't pick which starter to dress, you don't even have a backup and chose not to dress Stolarz.
And we have the same amount of GP for skaters because my roster allows me to pick the players with the most games on the week, but 4 games for Brodin is not the same as 4 games for Crosby you know... my top players that have 4 games are injured.

You'd have been the underdog if you had any relevant injuries entering the week, considering you have no NHL players able to replace eventual injuries, but they were only on my side unfortunately.

[Bruyns]

Thought I was getting that SO, but 2 GA to NSH is still pretty decent.

[Fraser]

2 days in. It could be a series Steve

[kyuss]

well, even Motte with a 2-goal game... the first in his career I suspect :/

meanwhile this is my team in the playoffs (from yesterday): https://www.nhl.com/video/hornqvist-bou ... c-66785903

nothing to laugh about Horny

Carlson and him were battling it out for most post hit in that game and motte just keeping pace with hintz as I believe it was his first 2 goal game of his career as well

Yes you being able to play players with the most games each week
Is clearly an advantage regardless of the player bc we count most stats in this league. However Comparing Crosby who is a C to to a D does no justice. Crosby to
Hintz would have made more sense as I think they are close in GP this week
