Good good last week, that was a close matchup.

Olofsson is gonna continue to tear it up for me this week, better be prepared

Yeah gotta love seeing Holtby staring up at the video replay after letting in each goal with that big stupid look on his face.

Gonna be interesting to see what they do with the Backstrom & Holtbys UFA contracts.

Backstrom would be a great mentor for Petey for a year or two.

"Obviously you don't want to see a good friend like that go through anything"

Making me wonder what's up with Marky.

It's a family matter and will be back on the weekend so I would guess maybe grandparent passing

I'm starting to think Carol was hustling us when she said she hadn't done a fantasy league in years solid week Carol, you trashed me

Hardly! That score went up and down often. I was nervous on Saturday, especially after I moved Hronek onto IR because he was supposedly day-to-day. He ended up playing but I couldn't bring him back up in time. Got him ready to go against the Canucks on Tuesday.

Good battle, Northy, it was fun! 👊

As for you, Nucker - thanks for the trade proposals, but I think I'm going to stand pat for now.

Even though I didn't consider metrics like hits or PIMs at all when choosing my roster, my core group started off pretty well so I'm going to basically keep the balance where I have it for the time being.

Demko looked pretty upset, must be something serious.

That's a player that will certainly come back down to earth

Pick up Virtanen for next week? He's going to start to break out










Maybe.

Silovs started the year pretty good in Barrie. He took a kicking today allowing 6 goals on 29 shots.

Focht and Woo were held scoreless in a 9-3 kicking they received from Saskatoon.

The one time that I'm relevant on here and I'm not around to enjoy it.

Back to hockey talk.

Do you think he'll hit his point average this year; what around 22 points?

Kassian and JP for Virtanen?

Everybody plays twice in the season so I'll get you next time!

For sure, but he's making me look like a genius atm

Looking forward to it. You've got a good team with Duchene and Svechnikov and your Avs guys. Good goaltending, too!

I knew you'd say that, but not specifically oilers.

Hate to say it, but injuries to other players is the only way Jake's getting significant TOI (outside of the PK) this season. Unless he figures it all out and surprises most of us.

Pittsburgh. They will have Jake and McCann

I like bloated, he regurgitates the Benning shtick a lot, but his other takes are quite hilarious, hope I haven’t chased him away with my pro Benning post.

He needs to get his season tickets back so we can hear more Dear Bloated letters from the Canucks.

The Dear Mr Benning editorials are entertaining and he keeps his money.

Some of those letters were infuriating. Not to mention condescending. How they used to gouge STH was terrible, considering how they had complete and unwavering loyalty for so long.

The poop you get as a US franchise season ticket holder compared to how the canucks treated us...



I think I've found the source of my animosity towards the club. Thank you.

Mine is an infuriatingly dense general manager and stupid owner

Kassian has hands of cement
