It really is a gamble with the goalies. You've made a great pickup with Stolarz couple of days ago. Could have bitten you very badly should Gibson not be OK prior to the Anaheim's most recent game. Apparently, some other manager is probably not very thrilled to have picked up Gibson prior to the game... I've picked Oettinger. Let's see how the currently struggling Stars will fair against hot Blues tonight.

Oettinger will be playing against the Blackhawks tomorrow instead, luckily for you. you guys are locked in a pretty good battle this week. starting to feel like winning this week is gonna be important cuz next week is only gonna be 4 days long...

wow, I am just shocked that Nashville is now "on pause" until after Christmas... good thing they could get that game in with the 'hawks last night and potentially spread it to our team with half their team already out...
Boston is also done through Christmas. Toronto and Vancouver games today and tomorrow postponed...
seems to me like maybe they should just shut it down next week for everyone...

welp, it was a valiant effort, t-man, but your boys didn't have enough to come back on the last day... good game, sir.
this covid shit is really throwing a wrench in things... feels like this week will be first to 30 or 40 wins. with so many players out gonna be some low scores this week.

Yep, is difficult. I'll have a lot of boys out for the whole week but so will have others as well. However, luckily for us, it's only a fantasy league, so who cares. Would not like to be in the shoes of NHL and NHLPA deciding on how to approach the olympics. On another note - why did you cut Bob?

Would not like to be in the shoes of NHL and NHLPA deciding on how to approach the olympics. On another note - why did you cut Bob? yeah, no kidding. with everything going on i really gotta think they scrap the Olympics. with the threat of having to be stuck in China for a month afterward on top of everything, I think a lot of players will pass on it regardless. but I think the league is going to step in and tell the players they can't go now because it will interfere with the season too much at this point. they are going to need a bunch of time to reschedule all these games so the playoffs can start on time... lol, when I first read that I was like "I did no such thing to Bob!?!" then I thought, oh yeah, that Bob... 😅 well, he has been playing like shit lately and I needed players, tbh. doesn't play all next week either. when I looked at the free agents he wasn't even the top goalie available... I'm sure I'll regret it down the road, but sometimes you gotta drop guys you don't want to... plus I like my other two goalies better. 😜

Was great fun this week trying to match-up with you. But after that first night my week was shot down by 30 points. Felt like the Hawks playing being down 3-0 after the first period.

You came within a tenth of a point of having the best overall score this week.

so then.......
with the announcement that this week is basically going to be a 2 day week, how does everyone feel about it?
I explored seeing if I could change our schedules so that this week and next were combined and then pushing everything back a week, but I don't believe that I can do that. so basically this week is gonna count and it is gonna be with two days and a very limited amount of teams playing...
with that in mind, any thoughts? I can't claim to be a big fan of this week's wins potentially deciding playoff spots at the end of the season when this week is such a joke of a competition.
my current thought is that perhaps everyone gets a tie this week, especially seeing as it just so happens to be the week we are all playing the team we will play an extra game against. of course, with all these games being delayed and the Olympics in serious doubt, the league will probably add another week or two of games in February now...
so... what say you?

I was gonna F*** up T-man this week with my 6 man games!
Is there any way to just eliminate this week? I was having fun playing until every other player is sitting out. It’s too hard to follow who’s in and who’s out.
I fear the league is gonna be shut down for a while. I think they try to comeback and it fails.
This is not meant to get political here. So please I hope no one takes it that way. Sooooo. What’s the plan with Covid now? We got the vaccines, here in Windsor/Essex, we have a whopping 90+% vaccinated. Yet cases are the worst they’ve ever been. Most kids have their first doses. I’m in no way shape or form anti vax. But I have to call things out when I see them. It seems these vaccines are not working the way they wanted. So why don’t they find on that works normally? They found this one in literally 1/2 hour.
Or, are these vaccines working as they’re supposed to and no one is dying who’s vaxed? If the latter is the case, why don’t we just monitor it and go back to normal life? Something doesn’t seem right here. We’re actually going backwards and my boys hockey is stopped, bars and restaurants are being scaled back. I just don’t get it. I really don’t!!!

the only way I can think of to way to make it fair across the board is for everyone to get a tie for the week. and, tbh, I'm not sure I can even do it. I think I can, but I'm not sure...

You came within a tenth of a point of having the best overall score this week. Thanks. So far gamble with the goalies is working out for me. While my top scorers are not among the best of the league, goalies are allowing to be competitive. Noticed as well that I've been only by such a small margin behind vadar. Would have made me mad if it happenned last week when he was my matchup

Don't know what the system will allow you to do. Best would be to fully scratch the whole week's results and to postpone the matchup towards the next week. In any case, I will not hold grudge for whatsoever reason should I fail to make playoffs due to the outcome of this or the next week. As T mentioned. Under the normal circumstances this game is fun and I like playing it. With all these covid impacts it's not possible to play the game, whether the real one or the fantasy one.

so, I've made an executive decision here and assigned everyone a bye for this week. it seems silly to decide games on the basis of the TWO total games played this week...
we shall start back up on Monday. hopefully the NHL will as well.
with the announcement that the 'chel won't be sending players to China now, there is a chance the schedule will be expanded by at least a week now if February. I will keep an eye on that. I have no idea if the app will adjust the schedule or if I will have to do it.
