Here is a list of thing that the IT guy running the new format is working on and explains the new divisions.

Bottom of page two about four posts up.

Regarding HBSL.

I think it's not accurate that they couldn't divide the STH and Non-STH and still have the divisions based on favorite team. The Sabres had several divisions last year. If there aren't enough players for a particular team, sure combine those. But if there were enough for others then they should have still be separated out.

The new Sportsnet format is underwhelming to say the least.

I didn't get that either. My guess is that it would be less STH which means less divisions for them. So the playoff seeding would be much different.

Edit: Not really. Just more wild card entries in the STH bracket.

i wish the leafs montreal games was on instead of the bruin flyers

If you're referring to the website I agree. They along with TSN have downgraded. Also seemed to have increased the number of videos that can't be watched because i don't live in canada

1467

Yes.


You want to pick guys who play 4 games in a regular week and 3 in a short week for the most part.
- dadeadhead

I thought about it but there are just some guys I'd rather have even if they play one less game.

You want to maximize your points.

Now if was between a 2nd liner who's playing 4 games or Crosby who's playing 3 it's a no brainer.

I'm not getting it. I show four channels that it could be on at that level and nothing.

What if it's Hedman, Gudas, and Stamkos playing two games against a bad Ott and Fla team, and Gudas is less than $1M?

To each is own.

As the season progresses you will notice that 75% of yours and your opponent will have the same team. It's the little things that get you the win.

Gudas is a good value pick on most weeks but to spend 4+ mil on Hedman when you could have say Subban, I think you get it.
