You were locked in once you made your one waiver move. The only reason that I’m so far ahead is that none of my top players slumped or had significant injuries. It was mostly luck; had somebody snagged Nabokov ahead of me I probably would have ended up with Ray Emery, which would have more than blown away my lead over Kid_A.
If we do this again next year we might want to think about allowing more roster moves to take the luck more out of the equation.
Or at least teach certain people not to drop their skates on their hand the day after our draft.
The playoffs count for points as well right
I don’t think so. Pools generally only last for the regular season – the strategy for drafting players in the playoffs is much different.
Oh fuck, Really,
I really thought these went into the playoffs! marr!! I banked on so many habs!!
I’ve played in the sportsnet.ca playoff pool for the past few years. I can definitely set that up if people are interested in it.
You choose 1 centre, 2 wings, 2 defensemen and 1 goalie for the first round, then you can choose again for the second round and one more time for the conference finals and the Stanley Cup finals.
I haven’t played in a playoff pool on any other websites so I can’t compare.
Ha! And here I thought you were just a huge homer.
I mean, I love the habs, but Who would pick Chris Higgins in a real pool!!
4 players out, im in third and i want to stay there!! this is going to be very tricky!!!
Well looks like I held onto mid group till the end. Considering the injuries, I am amazed.
I got a streak of bad luck near the end…Im happy with third!!
This pool got stupid with such a huge gap mid season, I really haven’t seen that happen before!
Do we get hot prizes?!
can we talk some smack?
Maybe next season, we should consider having trades if any player on your team ends up on the IR. The season ending injuries to Sourrey and Bergeron (combined with the dog goalie that goes by the name of Mason) pretty much killed any chance of competing against the rest of the pack. Anyways, it was fun nonetheless to watch.
