I guess it depends who I end up playing against in the extra games. As long as I play Duey, I'll have a 50/50 chance then. duey is the reason I am having the debate. either way, two teams are going to get a free win, which kinda sucks for the other team in that division or the other teams trying to earn a playoff spot.

Like I said Duey hasn't posted in the forum since Nov 2nd. I hope he's OK. I'll email him during the week and check on him.

I don't have a snowball's chance in hell this week. None of my key teams are playing more than three games and Karlsson is out for at least the next four games. Meanwhile Pitts and Colorado are playing 4 times with Pitts having 4 home games against weak teams. And this is a matchup I can't even win under favorable conditions.

welp, the site did the aforementioned schedule change, and as I expected, it just added two non-division games to the end of the schedule.
the thought process there is when adding games, the site seems to like to not create an uneven amount of division games on the schedule. the idea there would be if everyone in the division doesn't play every other team in the division the same amount of times, it would create an advantage for some teams. for example, in our Western Division, two teams playing Duey an extra time is unfair to the team that doesn't. this is considering that the division winners automatically make the playoffs regardless of record...
on the other hand, it will create the same issue with teams from the East playing Duey an extra time... so, what does everyone think?
I can a) redo it and make the two games division games or b) leave it how it is with it being non division opponents.
thoughts?

What if you played beaver once and duey once, beaver would also play duey. Then punish, sucky and myself could play each other once, and bigt and shooter could play each other twice. Ok, forget about that, I just figured out why it can't be done.

tbh, I am leaning towards just not messing with it. seems like things will sort themselves out by the last two weeks anyway. but, if anyone here objects, I got no issue adjusting it.

Good news is, as of Monday the NHL said they’re only testing guys who are actually sick or in other words have symptoms. So not many if any players will be missing much more action. Unless they get their bell rungeth!!!

Unless they get their bell rungeth!!! Sure, that's good news. Basically this is what the experts were saying originally - once the vaccination will get through, the life will eventually return to normal as well. And this is probably the way to go. Who opted to get vaccinated and potentially gets infected, however doesn't have symptoms, should continue to live normally. Basically his imune system has reacted properly. Who on the other hand opted not to get vaccinated, bears a higher risk. If he's imune system is sufficient and does not have symptoms (thanks to overcoming the disease or whatever), should live normally as well. No restrictions in work, restaurants, sport events, etc. Don't want to start this discussion now, but just my opinion, that it's finally a step in the right direction.

Unfortunately for me, I have currently 2 players on the covid list (Demko and T's russian liebling). While Batherson, Ehlers and Ellis on a regular IR. Will have to survive somehow until the All-star break.

I only got vaccinated so we could get back to normal. Canada has been horrible. Mainly due to the fact that our health care system has been morbidly underfunded for a long time. Now it’s on the brink of collapsing. Nurses quitting every day. Staff shortages everywhere. Unfortunately the people are paying the price on both ends of the spectrum. Canada is probably closer to civil war than the US is. There’s a massive truck convoy heading to Ottawa to tell the guvmint to basically fuck off of the trucks will stop running. Food shortages are wide spread, and inflation is unbelievable. Mr Trudeau should take his millions and run for the hills. I don’t think it ends well for him and his uneducated rhetoric he spews. In his own words. This thing is spreading because people “speak moistly”. Also Doug Ford will get shot with a sling shot in then it’s before he’s done. What a collection of shitheads we have here. No party lines are drawn. People have just had enough!!!

Shooter and duey having quite the battle this week. Actually the whole week is quite close this week. Let's see how it'll pan out towards the end. I got a bit back on track last night, being down by more than 20 points before. Unfortunately had to let go of Batherson who'll be sidelined by more than 2 months. Luckily, his replacement, Schenn, faired more than good tonight. Was counting to receive more points by the goalies, having Varlamov and Jarry playing at home with not top-tier teams agains. And they both lost. Luckily no minus points at least.

In any case, congrats. You had a more rounded week so a fully deserved win. Goalies were what killed me last season so I stopped using them. Now I just use a semi balanced team and hope the other teams have bad goalie games. I probably would be in better position if Kaner would score goals at his usual pace. His assists are normal but his goals are lagging behind. I hope he goes on a goal scoring spree and maintain his assists.
