Assuming a strong top 6, I think the 3rd line above would do just fine.

Problem is you have Gionta for next year and Moulson for another 50... No room to sign other guys or bring in other younger guys.

damn dude. Although understandable to keep Fowler as he's been playing great.

I'm having a bad week. 3 of my guys missed the cut- Rory, Branden Grace and Reed. I had to bring in Dufner and Donald from my bench. Ugh!

Scott just took a 7 on 15. You're safe.

I meant in the dream world where both are gone, but even in the real world, if Buffalo's top 6 is super strong, you can live with Gionta and Moulson as 4th line players next year. It's after next year where one retiring and the other going away make a massive difference.

So there is no room to sign vets, or acquire young players that make close to league minimum? But we can afford to overpay for McGinn?

Not exactly a position you want to cheap out on. Yandle's d-work makes me question the fit. Lindholm is strong in all zones.

I thought he was using him as a smoke screen to get the other guy because he hates Russians

It obviously depends on a lot of factors down the road but it could happen. The problem is you don't know what the cap will be in 3 years.
- mhp



My guess is that it continues to go up slightly
I'd spend the $$$ on Stamkos, bc he's that good
Idk that Yandle is a top pair defenseman though, so giving him a big $$$ deal is very risky

I think there might have been an even greater uproar had they kept the pick and taken Samsonov.
- kingcong39


I honestly don't think so but we would probably be worse in a league this year too

I did cal did not look too hot imo his rebound control was very bad last night.. Hurley play good but I don't think that stuff will work in the next level for him I can't wait to watch them tonight
- gerbe75pts



Agree. I thought Petersen looked just "ok"
I hated that Hurley pick, but he has continued to look good the last few times I've seen him. Still prob a couple years before we bring him to Rochester though. So hopefully he can continue to develop.
He's been good enough so far that he could potentially be a decent tree piece for us too

nope, I had Branden Grace as one of my c flighters,Reed as a b flighter (never used him) thank god I took casey as well

in my league, you pick 2 a's, 4 b's, 2 c's

you must play 1 a, 2 b's and a c for each round


you can only use each golfer up to 10 times this season, if your player stays on the bench for all 4 rounds it doesn't count as a start

(yahoo money league)

Just curious this Stamkos rumor people are hearing you think this is bulpoop so he gets more money from a different team?

I mean of course I love Buffalo but to a person that has never lived there why would he want to sign there

Sounds like a good league, lots of strategy and I like the 10 times a season max for a golfer. I play the avis fantasy game on pgatour.com, just started that about 5 weeks ago. I also do the fantasy game on golfchannel.com

Especially if the player is from the other city.

yeah we break it up in 3 segments, 20% for each of those and 40% for overall points


50 players
$20 each


I have found myself listening to it on the radio now on thursdays and fridays and of course having it on in background on tv all weekend, both golf channel and "prime time"


it does wonders for making an above average golf fan turn into a person being "glued" to it on the tele

He's going to get the league max wherever he goes so really its not like he is pulling a Babcock. He would sign in Buffalo because of 15, 90, 23, and 55. Also because he is close to his home town without having to deal with the BS that comes with his hometown.
