u guys always bash my trade offers but first in my fantasy league so far, lol

I will regain my spot, would still be ahead if I didn't have a mediocre showing last week!

Bwahaha

 

[Melrose_Jr.]

Trying to rob me!

Rob? Gionta has as many points this month as Kesler has this season.

No chance I'm giving up Seguin unless I see Stamkos coming back. He's all this bottom feeder's got.

 

[Hamrat]

I really really don't know what to do with Iginla. I just keep waiting for a sign he's going to bounce back and nothing. Tonight unless I have a change of heart, he's not in my starting lineup. What do you guys think will happen with him? Continue not producing or wake up and remember who he is?

I'll take him from you, offer me a trade, and I might accept. I'm the guy you're going up against right now

 

[JaeTM]

My whole team tonight is going so a little help on who to start would be great...

Right now I have a lock with Crosby starting at Center. I am torn between starting Benn, Kesler and Roy. Not really Roy but the other two...leaning more towards Kesler because they're playing the Avs and because of his history...hard to bench Benn though with his season.

Then I don't know who to start between Selanne and Callahan. I know that Selanne should be my first thought but it seems every time I bench Cally in favor of Selanne, Cally ends up scoring a goal or adds an assist and being a Rangers fan I feel like I'm almost betraying him

C: Crosby
C: --
LW: Ovechkin
LW: Vanek
RW: Kane
RW: --

Thanks!

Only player really holding me back is Kulemin, well and Cam Ward but I give him spot starts. Bobby Ryan frustrating me also.

Vanek-Toews-Hossa
Ryan- Pavelski-Selanne
Hartnell-Sharp-Williams
Kulemin-Carter-Gionta

Kronwall-Corvo
Kulikov-Leddy
Wideman

Rinne
Backstrom
Ward

We will not be stopped. Team is a plus 49 on the year.

Yeah I figured.

 

[bagh]

frig.....first year I am playing in a league where the commissioner gets to veto trades and the last.

I almost got Luongo for Evander Kane.

 

[JT Kreider]

So I was just messing around and offered someone a trade and it was actually accepted. I give up eric staal semin and PK subban, while receiving backes and pavelski. I'm in first place and I'm over waiting for staal and semin turning their seasons around. I could also afford to lose PK as my other defenders are letang shea weber shattenkirk and carlson and PK wasn't doing much anyway. Thoughts comments concerns?

Not sure now that Staal and Semin will both be under new coaches. If these guys can turn the fortunes of the teams, I'd have to think it will be on the backs of their top players.

Hey all,

Due to inactivity with a few of our teams in HF League 5, I would like to see if anyone would like the opportunity of assuming the management of 3 of our teams. Each of these teams have a competitive roster. PM me if you're interested (League link is below):

Thanks!

I don't know man, I just played you this week and we had pretty even scores (may have had an edge if you didn't have all those points in the Blackhawks/Ducks game). Best of luck the rest of the season!

 

[KreiMeARiver*]

So I just traded for Jimmy Howard. I gave St. Louis and Cam Ward.

Here is my existing roster:

Martin St. Louis
Jeff Skinner
Brad Richards
Ryan Nugent-Hopkins
Kris Versteeg
Jordan Eberle
Marian Gaborik
Ilya Kovalchuk
Max Pacioretty
Mike Cammalleri
Milan Michalek

Marc Andre Bergeron
Dan Girardi
PK Subban
Jack Johnson

Cam Ward
Jose Theodore
Carey Price

Category W-L (current record 30-45-15: 9th place of 10)

G | A | P | PIM | PPG | PPA | SHG | SHA | HIT | BLK

goalies: W | GA | SV | SV % | SHO

I keep starting the wrong goalies, but I also had crap Roloson for a bit. I picked up Versteeg and Nugent-Hopkins early from waivers, and recently got Eberle.

Obviously I needed to upgrade my goalie situation. Considering my depth at FW, and since I have many RW/LW players, I think it made St. Louis available.

Good trade, bad trade? Advice?

 

[The Dark Passenger]

Stupid ties! Went 12-1-0 last week in the Champions League, have the most wins, but in 2nd in the standings due to tie points.

You to man. Was a good matchup, that Hawks game DID give me a tie, I will take it. Look forward to future matchups, and hopefully matchups with some new members for our bottom 3.

You will stay there too if I can help it.

Besides you get a by for winning the league, it doesn't mean you win it all in the playoffs, as long as you get in, anything can happen.

A bye for what?

 

[Muh]

A bye for what?

I'd assume for first round of playoffs, if there are 6 playoff teams.

 

[Kane One]

Yea that's probably it. Thanks.

 

[Net Front Presence]

Looking for 3 replacements for League 6. Don't bother if you aren't going to be active.

 

[Melrose_Jr.]

Call me Kirk Muller, cuz I just took over the last place team in league 5. Good roster actually and I think they're capable of grabbing that last playoff.

Hope we can get a couple more people to re-fill the league.

Welcome to the madness, good luck. I look forward to playing you, Kirk.

 

[NYR_LAT]

In a non-HF league, someone offered me Bryzgalov and Mike Green for H.Sedin

For context,

My C depth is : Sedin > B.Richards > Paul Stastny > Eric Staal

My G depth (or lack thereof) is : Varlamov > Biron > Montoya

He needs a C, I need a G....

Any Thoughts ?

 

[Stugots]

****ing Luongo is killing me man
