FNHL POWER RANKINGS: TOP 16
« on: February 18, 2013, 12:53:02 PM »
Not going to make this too complicated but based on record, Points For, roster potential, and in some cases 2011-12 performance.

Great to see formerly neglected franchises spring back to life this season with active owners!

Here are your TOP 16 teams of FNHL after 4 wks into the 2012-13 season.



1. Dallas Stars  :DAL-NHL:
    * 4-0 record
    * 1st in Points For 482.3
    * Starts Corey Crawford + the Leafs' goaltending tandem of Ben Scrivens + James Reimer
    * 2011-12 Western Conference Finalist

2. Minnesota Wild  :MIN-NHL:
    * 2-2 record (would be 4-0 without 2wk line-up penalty)
    * potentially 1st in Points For if not for 2wk penalty
    * boasts Craig Anderson, Jonas Hiller and Scott Clemmensen in net
    * 2011-12 Stanley Cup Champion roster

12. Chicago Blackhawks  :CHI-NHL:

SLEEPING GIANTS
Teams that have fire power + the bodies on the roster to crack the top 16 but don't currently have a winning record due to a difficult schedule or just flat outta luck:

A. Washington Capitals  :WAS-NHL:

My Sens lost Matt Read for 6 weeks so that will hurt. As for Holtby he'd be amazing under a new coach like Lindy Ruff. :>

    Yesterday at 05:51:55 PM
  • Daddy: I know you dont endorse them. Never did. I paid for lots of crap i never used. Just for NFL Sunday Ticket.
    Yesterday at 05:52:45 PM

    Yesterday at 05:55:39 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: I paid for directtv version 1-2 years when i had my apartment. Not as much as the 35+ crowd but they did
    Yesterday at 05:56:34 PM

    Yesterday at 05:57:43 PM
  • Daddy: Its all over the place now. So ive stuck with what i know. The Ticket. I can't miss a Rams game. Not gonna do it.

    Yesterday at 10:00:35 PM
  • Daddy: They keep throwing insane money at the NFL to televise games and owners share those shiny pennies just enough with the players.
    Yesterday at 10:39:25 PM
  • ldsjayhawk: I'm available.  Not sure if we match up anywhere other than NHL Live, but let me know if there's something you're interested in @Brian
    Yesterday at 10:45:39 PM
  • ldsjayhawk: The other leagues for me are FGM, MLB Live and DNHL in case any-one else is looking to do a deal
    Yesterday at 10:49:01 PM
  • Daddy: Healthy mix. Couple baseball, couple hockey, different scoring options.
    Yesterday at 11:08:15 PM
  • Daddy: You probably kick ass in all of them although NHL LIVE hasnt officially started.
    Yesterday at 11:08:42 PM
  • Daddy: I respect your gaming options
    Yesterday at 11:09:54 PM
  • Daddy: I would for sure be an FGM or Armchair owner if i were here for baseball. Powerhouse too. Why not? Great leagues with better LMs.
    Yesterday at 11:16:38 PM
  • Daddy: DNHL must be 15 years old. Gotta be doing something right. Most leagues dont make it past 5. Very few make it 10.
    Yesterday at 11:20:45 PM
  • Daddy: I think Rob been running that league longer than ive been on profsl. Legendary LM.
