At first I was looking at the lineup, and I didn't know you were kidding and I thought you were crazy. After a second, I got it. Then I read that second statement, and now I think you're crazy again.

:rofl: :rofl:

I've had people PM this afternoon telling me that Tuomu Ruutu is hurt and that i should consider droping him lol.

GAA: 3.25
SV%: 900

But, the choice is up to you. In fact, hold on to him. It's a competition after all. ^_^

Also, I'm going to say that probably only 10 of the 45 teams are going to be competitive. Usually a ton of people stop caring after the first week, or just plain suck.

Well actually, it's just people cant keep up day to day. You have to follow the games quite closely or else you'll fall behind right off the bat...

Personally I dont think Denis is a bad choice. He'll be a starter and his last season's numbers was with a craptastic team.

You guys better watchout this year... I should be unbeatable with the my biggest weapon on my team....

Donald Brashear:clap: :thumbsup:

[HyperZell]

I just spend a good half hour retooling my team and stretching my budget. Who got the cut? Tanguay, Briere and Pitkanen. Who's in? Wait and see...

[Team_Mclaren]

WOW we have ALOT of guys in one league, thats wicked

[Moonracer]

I finally signed up. Damn, it's alot harder than I thought it would be to select 7 players for 40 mil. Or at least 7 players that will produce for you. Should be fun though.

[Gondi Stylez]

So far my lineup looks like:

C - Getzlaf, R.
W - Erat, M.
W - Laaksonen, A.
D - McLaren, K.
D - Morris, D.
G - Kiprusoff, M.
X - Hinote, D.

$1.3M left :thumbsup:

[Gondi Stylez]

Im confused as to roster freeze? so if the line up is frozen from 9PM (our time) for the next game day then when can we trade? maybe im misreading something?!:dunno: :nut:

You can trade anytime you like, but only if the player you are dropping/picking up is not playing that day or has not begun their game on that day yet. For example, say you had ryan smyth on your team, it was 6 pm mountain and that the oilers did not play till 8 pm mountain time. Say you wanted to buy eric staal who is playing in a game that started at 5 pm mountain. You cannot buy staal until 11 pm EST that night.

Same thing works for selling. Say you had staal and wanted to buy smyth at 6 pm. You can still buy smyth because he has not started playing yet, but you cant sell staal because his game already started. You can sell staal AFTER 11 pm EST that night.

So in a nutshell, players are frozen once they beging playing their game on that day and are unfrozen after 11 pm EST. As long as the player you want to sell and the player you want to buy is not playing that day or has not begun to play yet, then you can make the trade.

[Gondi Stylez]

^^^ ahhhhh... that makes MUCH MUCH more sense now! i really think im going crazy!:D

Just a quick question regarding hockey pools...

If you had a choice between Bryzgalov or Joseph, who would you choose? Thanks.

[HyperZell]

I'd quit because I didn't leave enough money for a decent goaltender.

^_^

Most of our pool is dead weight, a fact that you can quickly confirm by scanning everyone's roster. Tons of people have no team or incomplete teams, and almost everybody else has stupid picks.

[Moonracer]

Wow, I took a beating last night (thurs.). Should of gotten at least a 100 pts. or so and ended up with a big 6...lol Who would have thought the leafs would slaughter the sens 6-0 :eek:

[adam c]

30 million at the price of the players isnt exactly enough money..

35 would have been a better option

[three.eighteen.]

cujo, at least he's a lock for the starting tender

[A2VR6]

Well looks like a rather rough first two days for me. Atleast my roster value is up there.

[00Celica]

1st place :bigpimp:

[adam c]

wow last night was a good night for me.. earned 261 points and moved up 19 spots

[dirty_magic]

Lehtonen has been worth every penny so far, 2 SO's in 3 games.

[adam c]

Auld was good to me the first night, 8-3.. been not to bad since except against ATL

[stevieo]

too bad it was belfour who let in the first 4 goals

[adam c]

^^
the other goalie still let in 4.. so it doesnt really matter does it?

[Moonracer]

:banghead: I just learned we get 2 free trades per week. :clap: That means alot more work to keep the points up. I"m such a rookie. :D

[Gondi Stylez]

i am doing so damn shitty.... i gotta work on my team after tonights games

haha I thought it was per 2 year as well.

[dirty_magic]

yeah im already out of my trades for this week.

Well atleast your trades will accumulate... i made the mistake of using too many trades too soon in the past and at the end of the season I lost a fair bit of ground.

[dirty_magic]

I dont think the accumulate, from what I understand you only get two trades a week, and if you dont use them, you dont get to save them. Correct me if Im wrong. Either way, looks like tonight Ill be dropping out of 3rd, Ive only got two players playing, hopefully they both light it up.

[dirty_magic]

ah nm Im a tool. You do get to save them.

[88CRX]

my roster value is already up to $32.8 mill :thumbsup:

[Moonracer]

^^mine is down 160k :( but my B team is up by 300k :)
