Been toying around some more about what I think my roster may look like over the next few years, focusing on next season, and what I'll look like going into the auction.   It's very likely that I'm

Dale, a smart rule to go by in negotiations is to offer the other party what they do not have.   Based on his write up above, I would suggest a good starting point would be to offer Zach a years sup

could it be that I am almost a favourite against you in our first ever AHL matchup? I have a rather A-ish (for the Whalers) lineup for a 6game night. Just my D is missing is some big guns.

Well, top of my head, I don't think you're the favorite, but let's back this up with EV:This obviously doesn't tell the whole story, as the sample size is small, but some guys are overachieving, while others are struggling, so it balances out somewhat:Player - Pool Points Per Game===================Richards - 0.917Hejduk - 0.533Moss - 0.500Stafford - 0.455Langenbrunner - 0.417Stillman - 0.255Tyutin - 0.269Yandle - 0.231Huskins - 0.200Salvador - 0.125Dallas Goalies - (-1.607)====================Zajac - 0.625Morrow - 0.679Ruutu - 0.400Olesz - 0.375Bailey - 0.231Comeau - 0.167Meyer - 0.188Clark - 0.250Greene - 0.222Colorado Goalies - (-1.133)====================TOTALSShorstackers - 2.295Whalers - 1.996I'm the favorite. :DI've been running like shit lately, though, so a loss would certainly not be surprising. Good luck.

Btw RPR, Bailey is on NYI, not FLA. I suggest you change that in your lineup post, or Dale will miss him when he tallies up the scores.
thanks. bad job of cutting and pasting on excel on my part. I had Olesz as wrong team too, must have mixed them up or something.2.295 vs 1.996 is as close as I'm ever gonna get in the pregame playing against a good team as yours. Like I said, just make sure you beat me! :club:

GG Z, thats an impressive score for a 6game night.
tyty, got a lot of offensive production, finally. We're coming off of two straight -1.0 scores, so we were "due", I guess. Fricken put up one single assist on Saturday. Had at least one assist from 5 of 6 forwards tonight.

3rd win in a row tonight, as we beat the Gothic 1.5 to -0.5. Tomorrow's game is a huge matchup against the division rival Greaseballs. Unfortunately a lot of our top skaters either have the night off or are injured, so it'll be a tough go tomorrow. Hejduk and Hemsky have the night off, while Kovalchuk is still injured, and McDonald will be a game time decision.

This may be a blessing in disuise that Hejduk and Hemsky don't play tonight as now you can sign them to long term deals at a cheaper price.

I'm glad you understand how this pool works.

2-2!You run so good at how awful my lineups are. This is my worst 7-game stretch of the season, by far, lineup-wise.I don't think it gets any better, hypothetically, in rounds 2, 3 or 4, though either, so I don't really think I care.

Donuts from my guys this afternoon. I really don't like my chances with your Devil guys against Edmonton.

Daniel had an assist.
To me that is a donut since he is my 1st OT. The ugly night continues, zeros in the 1st from the Sabres/Rangers game. I am really dreading the Devils game coming up.

Good series, Wayne.I hate excuses, but I can't believe how awful my lineups are in these playoffs. I knew I didn't have Big M depth, but I thought my team was pretty deep. Stafford was supposed to be the bottom of my top end guys, and has just had a very mediocre season, and now he's injured for a while. Moss was supposed to be my better lower-end depth guy, and he's been absolutely pitiful. Guys like Cooke, Asham, Begin have had hot streaks, but they were just FA pickups with very low expectations, and they can't be counted on. When I have to start Asham in several playoff games, you know there's a problem.Hemsky would have been really nice to have, too. Hejduk missing a game or two already in the playoffs as well, sigh.Even my defense, which I thought was adequately deep has been getting exposed for it's lack of depth. My top 5 would be Keith, Yandle, Tyutin, Spacek, Girardi, which I would be comfortable with any 4, at least earlier in the season. Spacek fell off the face of the earth, from last year's totals. Girardi started off on fire and completely disappeared. Those two are basically my 2nd tier of d-men now, and random pick up Huskins has about the same pool PPG as them. Keith was a nice surprised, as he's one of the top 3 d-men in the pool, and Yandle is progressing very nicely. Tyutin as well. After those 5, it's an absolute disaster though, and I've had to use more of my bottom end d-men in this series than at any stretch in the regular season.Not to mention 2 goalie-less nights in the first 5 games, where I think I had 3 all regular season. And that's before even accounting for goaltending already being my weakest position.Sigh. Don't think I can win 2 more, with the lineups I'm icing. Considering Arron Asham and David Moss would see the lineup 4 of 7 games, if it went the distance, bleh.
