2017 METROPOLITAN DIV BUYERS & SELLERS
« on: February 03, 2017, 12:45:06 AM »
Buyers & Sellers in the Metro

:NYR: Rangers jockeying with Pens for Division title. Should be Buyers while playing with $4.4m in cap space.

:PIT-NHL: Pens trying to maintain their position atop Metro but fending off strong challengers in NYR and NYI. Should be Buyers with limited cap space.

:NYI: Isls should be buyers but can afford to stand pat. This team has been coming on strong while operating in stealth mode. Owns almost no cap space.

:NJD: Devils in striking range of a Wildcard spot currently 6 pts behind th 2nd Wildcard team, Toronto. Might stand pat if history is any indication.

:WAS-NHL3: Caps need to decide if they want to compete or wait for 2017-18. Have some players they are willing to move but will need their asking price met.

:PHI-NHL: Flyers Buying & Selling. Itching to shakeup the roster built up by the longest serving original FNHL owner.

:CLS: Jackets are Sellers and can wheel and deal more if they want or stand pat while waiting for FA to roll around. Guess it'll depend on offers they get from Contenders trying to shake loose some useful Jackets players.

:CAR-NHL: Canes need to continue overhauling their franchise, but most of their deals have already been completed. Now they're waiting for the off-season and Free agency. :toast:

I think it's admirable what Philadelphia is doing in their attempt to catch lightning in a bottle and secure a Wildcard spot.
Realistic, No.
Definitely gutsy.

A well-conditioned team wins in the first ten minutes, maybe less. The opponent is destroyed not just on the scoreboard but their will is broken when an opponent comes out hard and fast.

"Whatever is worth doing at all is worth doing well."
No point doing it half assed LOL
Go out with a bang.
Go hard.
Leave nothing on the table.
Etc.

Been waiting a long time to get my hands on Philly and now that I finally own them, I'm going to give it all I've got.

Doesn't matter if I drop 10 spots in the Draft because I'm going to be passing a few teams in the standings. Just matters I did what I could be lift the Orange & Black into the post-season.

If nothing else, I'm going to have a blast doing it.  :toast: :taco: :taco: :taco:

Or we can say you like spinning your wheels. ;-)

Some interesting moves to date by the Flyers from both new and old owners.

Carolina is most likely done dealing until the offseason.

I think Philadelphia would have to almost win out to make it. I like the effort though hopefully it pays off.

Devils left with 1 goalie in Chad Johnson while starter Varlamov is out for the rest of the season. Tough going in NJ.

Any updates to this Buyers & Sellers list since this post?
Islanders are causing a stir taking over the Division lead since the start of this week.  :o

I think the Flyers can Sell... will be tough to make the final cut for the playoffs the way Toronto and Buffalo picked it up last wk for the final Wildcard spot in the East.

Washington is more of a Seller at this point, but has only heard crickets this year. Really looking for deals to improve our team long term, no interest in picks.

  • Daddy: If i have 10 top level AA prospects each in the top 10 of the franchise vs one middle of the road pitcher like Cal Quantrill (or pick a guy) which one of those two packages are more valuable?
    May 05, 2024, 02:39:26 PM
  • Daddy: If you think its the AA guys send me a pm.
    May 05, 2024, 02:40:07 PM
  • Daddy: Also... Ive got a nice private island full of beautiful women to sell you. Pay me upfront and i will send you its coordinates. We call it the Virgin Daddy Islands. $5k reserves it for your future.
    May 05, 2024, 02:41:59 PM
  • dbreer23: Take two to tango, though. Most owners with adequate or surplus SP aren't interested in prospects as they're trying to win now.
    May 05, 2024, 02:42:54 PM
  • Daddy: Agreed. But most does not equal all.
    May 05, 2024, 02:45:09 PM
  • Braves155: My issue in LIVE currently is having Strider/Alcantara/Giolito all on the long shelf, so I am more retooling than rebuilding
    May 05, 2024, 02:46:48 PM
  • Daddy: Also agreed. Top quality pitching probably means not much depth. A few injuries can challenge you. Pitching other than top end pitching has been devalued in fantasy. Everyone wants the stud.
    May 05, 2024, 02:49:24 PM
  • Braves155: But I myself could use some time on a nudie island with some hot women
    May 05, 2024, 02:49:45 PM
  • Daddy: I here to tell you that ALL major league pitching is good pitching. A great hitter beats a terrible pitcher just 3 out of 10 times. Which means the worst pitchers > the greatest hitters.

  • STLBlues91: Ill be around the rest of the day for any talks
    May 05, 2024, 03:25:59 PM
  • Brent: Greg Maddux had the best outlook.  He viewed himself as tye dealer/house and you had to beat him.  Just like in the casino, the house nearly always wins.
    May 05, 2024, 04:33:51 PM
  • Brent: He had that view b/c of his father who was a blackjack dealer in Vegas.
    May 05, 2024, 04:35:28 PM
  • Daddy: Yes @Brent!! That is it exactly. Pitching is the house & it always wins in the end.
    May 05, 2024, 05:15:18 PM
  • Daddy: There shouldn't be many innings available in FA in dynasty fantasy leagues IMO. Thats guaranteed money! To hell with High A ball.
    May 05, 2024, 05:21:23 PM
  • Daddy: Until someone starts a minor league baseball fantasy game or option. Maybe we can petition fantrax? I just dont think they will care for that.
    May 05, 2024, 05:23:07 PM
  • Daddy: Neither should we (so much). Every league i see is MLB.
    May 05, 2024, 05:24:17 PM
  • Daddy: Stcesorp meht kcuf
    May 05, 2024, 05:26:02 PM
  • Daddy: Stcepsorp*
    May 05, 2024, 05:26:33 PM
  • Braves155: The problem with the minors is not the system as a whole, it is some Farm Systems are more 'elite' at being able to produce talent than others. If you look across MLB teams you can pretty easily tell the great systems from the weaker systems and talent development
    May 05, 2024, 05:57:14 PM
  • Braves155: With regard to pitching in the Minors...there is  method to the madness. It is all about what you make of it tho. I agree that it can seem certain type arms in the minors are a dime a dozen
    May 05, 2024, 06:02:39 PM
  • Daddy: Mr Braves you are my guy. There isnt anything wrong with minor league studs or flops. I get it in REAL baseball.
    May 05, 2024, 06:20:28 PM
  • Daddy: This is fantasy baseball. We dont generate revenue selling prospects and merchandising. Our top farms dont get a write up in Sports Illustrated.
    May 05, 2024, 06:22:29 PM
  • Daddy: Load up on MLB guys, then near MLB guys, and only then is the quality of your prospects matter. Ya dig ;)
    May 05, 2024, 06:24:36 PM
  • Brent: I over value minors to a fault, but I am softening on that stance.
    May 05, 2024, 06:45:54 PM
