No worries, just glad to steal Letang from you.

That wasn't a problem. Taking Dupuis when I wanted him was.

It's tradition! I'll always take Dupuis, have a soft spot for him. Heck, for any future drafts that I cannot make i'll leave it up to you guys to collectively pick for me, as I am predictable

I knew you were going to take him, but I still didn't want you to. I also called the Neal pick, and told Aeneas to off for you when he took Letang.

Well that was hectic but fun!
Don't know why I went for not only one, but two side bets. Oh well, $45 donated this year.

Congrats to pylon on the "soulful" team he put together! Gonna be fun to follow everyone's teams this year.

BTW, if people want Email standings updates, let me know. I can use your addresses from previous drafts or you can PM me with a different addy. Frequency can be Daily/2/3/4/5/6 days or once a week. (This can be changed anytime during the season)

I think its awesome, but that's because with losers like Dupuis you are basically burning your money!

Very sorry not to make it. Family medical issues have distracted and conspired against me. One year, for sure. I'm cheering for the guy with the most Oilers.

well i suppose that would be me. i have the all-villians team, nugent hopkins, hall, yakupov, phanuef, edler. but to tell you the truth i don't want you to root for me, hell i don't even wanna root for me.

here's hoping my team leads the draft in "man" games lost.

Go, Handgrown. You're my new favourite poster here, at least these next 48 games.

This is bad. And you should feel bad.

And to think, I used to like you because you're a comic guru.

This is like that time that Superman died or when Wolverine tried gettin' it on with Jean Grey and it didnt work out and everyone was awkward and sad. Thats what this is. Dreams have been crushed!!!

Devils' Henrique Out Of Cast, But Needs 3-To-4 Weeks Rehab: Adam Henrique had the cast on his injured thumb removed this week, but will require three and a half to four weeks of rehab before he can resume playing, the Bergen Record reports.
(Updated 1/5/13)


So, about 15 more days. He could miss about 7 games.

Probably wise. I don't think that Jagr/Selanne will win the scoring race either.

Vanek on a 240 point pace. Jagr on a 192 point pace.
Dammit, St.Louis, step your game up...

If San Jose can play their entire season against Calgary then I should have this wrapped up rather nicely....
