It still looks wrong though. I guess the difference is that you could be severly hung over and still play a decent game of baseball.

What if it were only 4 teams that made the playoffs? A division title would be more celebration worthy...

I didn't like that about baseball back then, the most teams had been eliminated by June.

Actually that was one of the great things about baseball IMO. Truly the top teams went to the playoffs because they had earned it over 162 games. The pennant races were the playoffs back then and every bit as exciting (if not more) than todays current playoff system for baseball. One game wildcards is one of the dumbest things I have ever seen. Teams bust their asses all season to get eliminated in one game. Then we have a 5 game series in the first rd when it should be 7. I get the need for more revenue and such and the desire for more teams in the playoffs but the current system really sucks.

That is the most lop sided trade I've ever seen. It better be vetoed or I'm done with this pool.

Fair enough, I disagree. A team that got off to a rough start but then gets it together down the stretch adds an exciting element to the races.

I don't get why nucker is handed superstars. How the (frank) can one guy in a 16 man pool have Crosby, Stamkos, Kane, Ovechkin, Hall and Benn???

Not to mention Drouin, Bennett, Eberle and Forsberg...

The fact he is commissioner makes it even more suspicious.

What is it, what is it?
Did the red wings trade their captain(the one with the flowing locks of hair)to the blues? Did the blues cut one of their veterans loose?

Please, pray tell?
If you quit, I'm gonna take your team and make it my very own London Bridge out of it!

Hamilton and Kadri for Crosby.

My team is stacked, just need a goalie...however Hammond and Neuvirth could prove to be great waiver pickups.

Unless Kadri magically becomes good that is quite lopsided indeed.

Where are the trades for realz?

Where is the quick on the trigger gm that isn't happy with a slow start and makes a move?

The way Columbus finished last season, I thought they'd get off to a better start.

What is up with Prust? He is not going to have any knuckles left by the end of the season.

Vasilevsky and a 1st round pick were also included..... I honestly thought the Varlamov and Toews
for
Forsberg
Josi
Lehner
