Backyard NHL: Invalid Transactions / PREDATORS GET WILD!!
« on: June 10, 2012, 04:56:27 PM »

Mark Olver, $0.2m (2012-13)
:Nashville: 4th Round Pick

*Kimmo Timonen, $6.3m (2012-13)
Henrik Karlsson, N/C (26 games)

Deal is pretty straight forward I think. I wanted a goalie prospect and Timmonen is window dressing. Thanks Norrya!  :toast:

Backyard NHL: Archives / Rule Discussion - Sending a Player to the Minors
« on: May 02, 2012, 01:09:04 PM »
Rules/Waivers/1st Paragraph
Stipulation: Only players in the last year of their contract can be sent down to the minors.
______________

I'd like to discuss the possibility of lifting this restriction. Reasoning as follows:

- The NHL makes no such stipulation. ex. Wade Redden
- GM's that made poor decisions at the entry draft are still handcuffed by too many large contracts. ex. Dallas
- The cap number for the minor league roster provides a means to limit over-use.
______________

There's another way to limit over-use of Waivers that is currently used by the NHL. The requirement to pay half a players salary if they are claimed by another team upon recall from the minors. I believe this amendment would:

- Tie in with Drew's proposal to find a way to free up players like Timmonen and Phaneuf.
- Provide a further breaking mechanism on using Waivers.

Please discuss.

Backyard NHL: Invalid Transactions / Nashville/Columbus Trade
« on: April 29, 2012, 10:51:58 PM »
I'm posting this trade as conditional to my trade with Montreal. If that trade (the one where Montreal announced we'd struck gold) is approved then this one can be processed as well. If not it's null and void.

Travis Zajac, $3.9m (2012-13)
Jakub Voracek, $3.2m (2013-14)

Mike Riberio, $5.0m (2012-13)
Blake Wheeler, $3.6m (2013-14)

I make this trade to free cap space while sending obviously superior players to Columbus. I have to thank the Blue Jacket's GM for his patience and understanding. It took a lot of effort to get to this agreement but it was based on the assumption that the other deals I have made are fair.

Really hope this isn't controversial too.  :toth:

Backyard NHL: Invalid Transactions / Dallas and Nashville again.
« on: April 29, 2012, 05:06:37 PM »
Nashville gets Ilya Kovalchuk, $6.7m (2013-14) for Nick Spaling, $1.0m (2012-13) and Henrik Zetterberg, $6.1m (2013-14).

I like Kovi for his LW/RW positioning. I think Zetter will have a better year but Kovi's prolly worth the extra .6m. Thanks again Gilly!

Yeah, I like Lack too. I'll keep fishing for common ground though....would you take on a bit of Cap and/or consider Ribiero or Berglund for Krejci? Would you move Peverley?

Backyard NHL: Archives / Nashville/Toronto Deal

Toronto gets N Backstrom for Z Chara straight up.

Backyard NHL: Invalid Transactions / Dallas gets it Done - 1st Deal made with the Preds.
« on: April 23, 2012, 11:46:36 PM »
To Dallas

C - Nazem Kadri, $0.2m (2013-14)
LW - Nick Foligno, $2.5m (2013-14)
LW/RW - Rene Bourque, $3.3m (2013-14)
D - Brooks Orpik, $3.8m (2013-14)
D- Carl Gunnarsson, $2.5m (2012-13)

12.3m

To Nashville

C- Patrik Berglund, $4.1m (2012-13)
LW - Henrik Zetterberg, $6.1m (2013-14)
D - Nick Leddy, $2.0m (2012-13)
D - Dylan Olsen, N/C (28 games)

12.2m

There was a lot of back and forth on this. I'm happy with my end of it but reluctant to part with Kadri so soon. Love pairing Zetterberg up with Datsyuk and Leddy and Berglund are quality upgrades.  Gives Gilly a lot more depth to work with and may help him move another big contract.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Daddy: Now either there are a lot of people copying our style or trying to learn it.. or possibly there is just that much interest by visitors. Maybe both. Either way, we got to be doing something right. The NHL LIVE season, will start with an amateur draft.
