I would like to make a suggestion.

Next year reduce the roster sizes by at least three spots. This is the worst waiver pool I've ever seen in fantasy sports.

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

Fair point.

We can probably drop a starting spot and bench spot in a 16-team league.

 

[Zegras11]

Shea Weber for a good goalie?

 

[Doctor Detroit]

I was in 14th or 15th for most of the year, but I've clawed up to 7th even without Rinne. Maybe that dillhole will return and I can finish top five.

I've gotta get in on this next year. Never played fantasy hockey but this looks fun.

It is fun.Of course we're all just playing for 2nd place now. No chance of catching Cherry's Kids. :(

I need goals and SOG, everyone on my team is for sell, especially my auto picked Sedin.

I'm in 3rd now, hopefully Rinne comes back soon and maybe I have a chance to stay near the top. My goalies are Pavalec, Montoya, Clemmenson, and Lack.

I had the #1 waiver priority and checked the database every day in "added" players for Kuznetsov. Was really shuked when I saw him added to a team on March 12th, when he never appeared on the NHL roster changes page. That's some

I think my priority was 16th. I couldn't believe I got him. I don't know why he didn't show.

I assume yahoo screwed things up somehow. Looks like he was added on the 12th and awarded off waivers on the 13th. I don't know. I just submitted a claim when I saw him available.

 

[Bill Brasky]

Did I pay? I forget

Seems like the right thing would be to put him back in the pool no?

 

[Zegras11]

no..there have been several players picked up "early" during the year.

I picked up Etem when he was in the minors and a few others.

I picked up Bryz using waiver claim. Took them forever to get him in.

The problem is I checked the "added" list every single day from last Sunday to Friday. Kuznetsov did not appear on it until today, while the other players that I've seen are shown in the "added" list then are on waivers. So if you manually searched Kuznetsov, he was apparently found on 13 March but he wasn't shown on the added list. That's obviously a Yahoo issue, but it doesn't make it any less fair. I did my due diligence and missed out on a player I had been waiting for with the #1 WW priority. I think that's bs.

I always just search the FA lists.. I don't even know what the added page is.

Damn, I've been in free fall since the trade deadline.

in for playoffs

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

I updated the dues section of the league website.

I have payments from 9 owners I was able to match up with their team name.

that leaves 7 owners who I show as still owing their $25 dues:
BOCA
Denny Pratt Tragedy
Hartrick
Net Crashers
Northern Voice
SofaKings
Wheat Kings

Please send paypal to arudnicki AT yahoo.com (use gift option to avoid fees, and don't need to say more than your team name in the message). If you paid already and I missed it somehow, please send me the details.

Thought I had paid this on sign-up last year. My bad ... you should have it now.

Brasky gave me a hell of a scare in the battle for 2nd at the end.

You'd been creeping up on me for a while now too, I was getting worried. Glad to finally win this thing!

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Congrats to the top three. Had Rinne been healthy I would have won, count your blessings.

$25/person, 16 teams, leaves us with $400 in prize pool money.

I also offered a $5 bounty to teams that beat me in the standings (paid primarily by the $25 extra Cavalier sent in with his dues).

So, payouts are:

1. Cherry's Kids ($200+$5) = $205

2. Northern Voice ($120+$5) - minus $25 dues = $100

3. Brasky's Brawlers ($80+$5) = $85

4. Cold-### Honkies ($5)

NV's dues are taken care of from his winnings, but we are still missing payment from 1 other owner. Team name at yahoo is Net Crashers. I sent him an email about it but not too worried.

Good job by ceo3west running away with this thing. Were most people ok with the categories we used this year and the overall setup? Let me know if you think we can make any clear improvements by switching things up. I thought it worked pretty well overall, but maybe we should cut down on the starting lineup or overall roster spots a bit.

Send me your paypal info as verification and I'll get these out ASAP. Brasky, I'll keep your playoff pool dues out of this per your other post.

Thanks.

I like the setup as it is now but am open to any changes you decide to make.

I liked the changes, thought it made it a lot better. I would be in favor of keeping it that way going forward.

thanks Rud, paypal info sent. please keep a $20 tip from me for always running these things. appreciated.

I was watching the live scoring most of the night, hoping your guys wouldn't get assists, and that Tim Thomas would get a W which would have bumped me up a full point, literally down to the last game of the season.
