Fantasy hockey 08/09

[Kristjan]

Alright folks.

It's fantasy hockey time again. Who are up for it this season?

We need 12 teams in all to make the most of it.

 

[AhmedDimwitson]

I'm in.

 

[Giggsy PO]

In.

 

[Kristjan]

RedCanadian will probably be the one to set up the league as last year.
He'll post the league info when done

 

[TheSwede]

I'm in.

 

[Tiberius Aquila]

You know I'm in to defend my title.

 

[Kristjan]

Goes without saying Tiberius

 

[RedCanadian]

Here's the info everybody:


League ID # 42377
Password: redcafe



All the settings are the same as last year.

PS: I'm taking my title back...

 

[Kristjan]

Right, we're 6 here and I've got one Caf outsider who wants in so that's 7.

We need 5 more for the 12 team league

 

[Giggsy PO]

The green creatures are ready to haunt you down. All of you.

 

[RedCanadian]

Where is the rest of the guys from last year???

 

[Kristjan]

I'll try and do a PM round over the weekend. Have a look through the thread from last season.

 

[RedCanadian]

Took a look and found some who need to sign up....

Tribec
eCantona
Primetime

Plus the good Doctor, MS MSP, and any of the other Canadians

 

[ecantona7]

alright, fine, I'll sign up. Can you post the link to the league please RC?

 

[Kristjan]

the link

RC posted the league id and password above

 

[TomCat]

I'm in.

 

[Tiberius Aquila]

PS: I'm taking my title back...

Au contraire, mon ami...

 

[Tribec]

This may well be the Oilers season, well I say may be as I'm level on points right now.

 

[Primetime]

I'm back

 

[RedCanadian]

That's 8, 4 more and we'll have the perfect number of teams....

 

[Kristjan]

It's 10 actually if the rest who've posted here would sign up their teams

 

[AhmedDimwitson]

I will sign as soon as possible - was there a deadline? Moving to the States right now so I have had somewhat limited access to the Internet, will be back at my home office next week though for a while. Anyways, will be attending Caps - Vancouver and Caps - Devils in October. Was thinking of taking a trip to Pittsburgh to watch Crosby etc but appears to be a too long trip from DC.

 

[Kristjan]

The draft is scheduled for next sunday, the 28th.

The regular season starts on the 4th of October so it's hard to have it much later.

 

[RedCanadian]

It's 10 actually if the rest who've posted here would sign up their teams

Well at least we still have til the end of the week to get enough teams

 

[Kristjan]

2 more spots to fill for a full 12 team league.

Anyone else have the guts to challenge us?

 

[RedCanadian]

Doesn't look like it....

 

[Kristjan]

No problem, we'll go with a 10 team league then

 

[Tiberius Aquila]

Evgeni Malkin
Jason Spezza
Zach Parise
Patrick Kane
Anze Kopitar
Shane Doan
Alex Tanguay
Dustin Penner
Duncan Keith
Brent Seabrook
Braydon Coburn
Mathieu Schneider
Chris Osgood
Niklas Backstrom
Sean Avery
J.P. Dumont
Brian Gionta
Ilya Bryzgalov


Not a bad crew to begin my title defence with...

 

[RedCanadian]

I'm pretty happy with my squad as well....

 

[Tribec]

Glad I was a bit drunk, and missed the draft, I probably wouldn't have taken the points machine that was Ovechkin, however I'm pleased with my roster, may tweak a little bit, as there is no Oiler presence in it just yet....

 

[Kristjan]

Yeah pretty happy, of course there was more to choose from since there's only 10 teams

 

[ecantona7]

damm, I missed this, forget all about the draft.

 

[Giggsy PO]

As for the previous two seasons this is my best squad and I really mean to win this term.

Or at least to be in the TOP 10.

 

[RedCanadian]

Or at least to be in the TOP 10.

I'm going out on a limb and predicting that you will in fact finish, at the very least, in the top 10!!

 

[Kristjan]

My money is on Giggsy being dead last in 11th place

 

[Giggsy PO]

My money is on Giggsy being dead last in 11th place

I suppose you are using cnut's philosophy of betting. Then I obviously agree.

 

[Tribec]

The season is up and running... Just remembered and adjusted teams accordingly. Now all I've got to do is remember to watch Hockey Night in Canada on a Sunday morning, before sorting my teams out for the week ahead.

 

[RedCanadian]

I knew I should have stocked my team with players from the Leafs....

 

[Kristjan]

Are you the Maple Laughs?

 

[RedCanadian]

Are you the Maple Laughs?

Yep. Even better was the fact that I forgot to edit my team all week.... in both of the leagues I'm in....
