All I ask is
« on: February 26, 2018, 12:47:05 AM »
All I'm going to ask for is a top 4 finish in my 1st full season here in FNHL. So far it's looking good but my biggest concern is Detroit loading up on some talent. Never worried about Boston. They got nothing on us.

Yeah. You're on your own man. I got Halo's Presidents Trophy winning Canes to deal with in Metro Div.
Of course, Wings/Izaman is way overdue for a Top 4 finish in FNHL.

We've been neck and neck for a lot of the season. You've done a great job with your squad and I'm sure it will be tense and done to the wire as to who is first in the Atlantic.

We've both got some tough matchups this week. Good luck.  :toast:

I'd be worried about Boston. They're capable of dropping 130 in any given week. Plus they won it last year.

I'd say the potential Philly/Carolina match-up could go either way. Carolina got way out in front at the beginning of the year but those two teams have been pretty even for the last couple of months now. Probably will come down to injuries and match-ups as usual.

You can see the flaws of the NHL's playoff system on full display in our league especially in the Central and the Atlantic divisions. Weird that you would rather have fourth place in the Central than win the division...

I hated being in the Atlantic with Florida, Detroit, Boston, Toronto and TB always locking up playoff spots early. It's a toss up as to who'll come out of Atlantic. Wings, Bruins and Habs all looking strong.

Good work by Mordecai, Snugerud and Jonathan making that Montreal franchise so strong.

I require from my teams, proper levels of anger, belligerence and some good ol' fashion piss 'n' vinegar.

I will be the first to admit I am not the right man for a franchise rebuild but I can tweek the hell out of anything that looks close to being ready to claim a title.

Atlantic Division is full of skilled owners. I really do like that and welcome the competition.

Boston just lost Bergy for 2-4 weeks with a fractured foot.

That's good Habs guy. Keep looking the other way because when that Boston train mows you down you won't feel a thing. :rofl:

Watch out for Izaman's Detroit RedWings. They're overdue.

You're at least a Top 8 team for now. Not bad in your 1st full yr.

Our Round 1 victory versus Izaman's Detroit RedWings was a defining moment for my franchise. Round 2 for my Habs is a classic match-up versus archrival Boston.

  • 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.

    Yesterday at 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.
