I'd be happy with 2nd or 3rd for sure as I'm planning on doing this again next year and inviting more CP peeps to help draft a team.

May as well get a free entry!

looooob · 04-28-2018, 03:53 PM

now tied for 2nd , 1 point out of first

although the noregretzkys charging fast, 5 back, a big night from Marchand today and 5 knights playing tonight

Jiri Hrdina · 04-28-2018, 04:06 PM

Debrusk has been one of our best picks

Bingo · 04-30-2018, 07:15 AM

Could be first after tonight ...

3 points back and 8 players active tonight

GioforPM · 04-30-2018, 07:18 AM

Glenmore Audi tanked.

Bingo · 04-30-2018, 07:51 AM

Possible ...

Not sure I'd go LA and Columbus if I was tanking though.

New Jersey? Minnesota?

I think they had a hunch that was very very wrong.

the noregretzkys are becoming a problem

the Hrdinas are interesting- the way the games are currently synced (I'm sure it will change later) they alternate nights between 0 and 12 guys playing

havn't looked at a few rosters lately but it would seem as if there are 7 teams with some sort of chance at winning depending on how results go- that is the top 6 and the Hrdinas, don't see how the Warreners can win as they are 13 behind us, all in on the same teams but with fewer players- Pasternak or no Pasternak

SuperMatt18 · 04-30-2018, 01:47 PM

This is pretty exciting.

Did they make any mention of this only being a playoff thing...or are they going to expand to a regular season pool for next year?

I feel like a regular season one would be interesting too.

I was actually just kidding.

If Boston wins, the Hrdina's aren't an issue because they've loaded up on TB. If TB wins we are out of it anyway.

If Boston wins we are in great shape, but I could see a dogfight proceeding with Short Sticks (only if Washington wins), The Lannys (only if Pittsburgh wins), the Regretskys (only if Vegas wins), or the Puckers (only if SJ wins).

The cool thing is that its possible for us to go into the third round with 12 players remaining. The Hrdinas can say the same, but they are really the polar opposite of our team (if we move on in good shape they are done and vice versa). The metro Ford team has 12 players now but they will lose at least 1, and they really have only one good player anyway.

You guys couldn't come up with a catchy name like everyone else has ?

D'arcy and the Nerds or something

CaptainCrunch · 04-30-2018, 03:56 PM

That's what makes us cool. Everyone else showed up with a theme or a custom and a catchy nickname.

We showed up like oh it must be Tuesday, we're just here to crush all your hopes .

And it doesn't hurt my feelings for them to say calgarypuck.com every second day on the radio.

Plus we were just not very creative. No costumes either.

Now that I'm paying extra attention to the Bruins I've realized just how bad that David Backes contract looks. He's still got $18 million in cap hit over the next three seasons for a glorified 3rd line player.

He's a bigger more "truculent" Brouwer.
These are guys that cashed in on big contracts when size was more desired than speed/skill.

we aren't only paying extra attention to the Bruins--we are paying extra attention to David Backes!!!

Well . . . that night sucked as we fell to fourth and 11 points back.

At least we'll get favorable line matchups tomorrow.
