it's a fantasy league - I don't get too worked up about it. It's hard to get value because guys all want stupid returns for star players. Rinks wanted Toews or Johansen for Mason from Philly

How would a trade for Corey Perry go down if the Canucks were interested? Would it take too much? If so, what?

In a league this deep I don't think it's a huge concern unless the rest of your team is poopty. I have 3 non-active players on my roster and several more of my players are in their first season, but most weeks I'm pretty competitive in player categories. Goaltending is a bigger issue
Edit: 6 stats are related to points

The last pool I won was a goals only pool that had 35 entries and I got to pick 1st (Brett Hull) I got more goals from Hull (86) than some teams got from all 8 of their players.
It was a good year for pools for me, I won our Ghoul pool 3 times that year, Jim Hensen, Myles Davis, Gene Roddenberry.

If there's gonna be very little player movement we might as well just re-draft every year to keep it interesting. Otherwise it gets stale...

We're just waiting for Kesler to screw his wife, then he will demand a trade, driving down the asking price. Kesler will pay off for years.

I have such a hard time picturing a league where players can go more than GPG

Yup. For a free pool the draw is the entertainment value, and I don't know about anyone else but 3/4 of the fun is being an armchair GM. Not much agency in just activating your roster every day

It's funny how some guys in the pool are trading for 4-5 years down the round. I don't get the point of that. I want to win every year, makes no sense to trade for guys like Draisatl, Horvat, Barkov etc... Going to be years before they produce.

I wanted a more balanced team and to change it up, bored of the same team.

I agree as long as he doesn't get scratched a lot I think its fine. They are probably just trying to protect him from Hanzel who injured 2 centers last year.
- belcherbd


Good point, maybe Hanzal will do Bo a favour and open up a spot for him.

You figured out your score when Tuesday's newpaper came out. A newspaper was a thing that was delivered to your house everyday by a kid or a fat lady with 5 kids and a 1974 station wagon.

He traded Perry and Parise for Kassian, Monahan and Trouba.

Perry alone is worth that plus draft picks.

- Scooby_Doo


....You should look at the trade again you have the teams reversed So I guess we are on the same page for once....but no veto post eh?

For example, I just picked up a player that I didn't know existed until a few minutes ago.

Yellow Rally 3 speed with a banana seat, "biker" bars and a pair of hockey cards cloths pegged in the spokes. Had a carrier on the front.

I was literally just looking at that pickup thinking you knew something I didn't. Thanks for dispelling that illusion

#7 cause they're tighter than Booth was gripping his stick last season.
