Closing in on the HALFWAY mark of the 2016-17 FNHL season. It's a 88 regular season schedule. Let's check in on the leaders board.

1. PANTHERS 37-3 HOLDING POLE POSITION
RW Bryan Rust surprisingly leads the Panthers. Duo of Carey Price and Petr Mrazek continue to be backbone of this team.

2. BLACKHAWKS 35-5 HOLDING GROUND
Rookie Ryan Hartman surges up point board over past 3 wks. Holtby is stone wall for this team.

3. KINGS 32-8 HOLDING GROUND
Voracek, Tarasenko & Saad scoring tons for the Kings. Peter Budaj & Roberto Luongo posting all the goalie pts.

3. BRUINS 32-8 CREEPING UP
David Pastrnak and newly added Erik Karlsson doing all the scoring for Bruins. Talbot stellar in net and Rask his usual stud-self.

5. PREDATORS 30-10 SLIPPING DOWN
Hornqvist & Cam Atkinson lead the Preds offence. Freddy Andersen surging up goalie stat chart. Slipping out of Top 3 by a hair.

5. LIGHTNING 30-10 CREEPING UP
Rasmus Ristolainen continues to bolster this team's scoring since trade from Minnesota. Antti Niemi outpacing Bishop as this team's starter.

5. REDWINGS 30-10 HOLDING GROUND
Pqcioretty & Sam Gagner have been leading the team in scoring over the past several wks. Jake Allen stopping everything for Wings.

8. PENGUINS 29-11 SLIPPING DOWN
Sid Crosby continues his elite scoring for Pens. Thomas Greiss and MAF share the crease and bring home the goalie points.

8. RANGERS 29-11 CREEPING UP
Rookie Patrik Laine, young superstar in the making Jonathan Drouin and veteran Ryan Kesler lead offence. Martin Jones backstops and posting lots of goalie pts.

10. AVALANCHE 27-13 CREEPING UP
Knocks St.Louis out of the Top 10. Geno & Little Joe pacing the skaters. Cory Schneider winning just enough to help out.

So who's knocking on the door of the TOP 10, these 5:
11. 26-14
12. 25-15
13. 22-18
13. 22-18
13. 22-18

Injuries have devastated what could have been a special season.

Both of my FPs Bishop and Stamkos are on the IR. Johnny Hockey was IR before we traded him. Abdelkader is IR. Even lessor types like Brendan Smith IR.

Losing Bishop and Stammer is too much to overcome. Maybe we can get healthy in time for the post season, but our division is rugged. Even outside the Division the likes of NYR, NJD, ( Possibly Philly under new management) had already shown vast improvement. Pitt was already top notch.

Tough season gets tougher. Damn injuries

Franchise NHL / Re: SOLD - ANTMAN BUYS AVS (PRICE $115USD)

Welcome to FNHL Antman!
If it weren't for "Daddy" being available, my call sign would have been something like Gorillaman so I'm digging the name.

Don't be shy or intimidated by this league. Bring those avs back to glory.

Franchise NHL / Re: SOLD - PPG BUYS FLYERS (PURCHASE PRICE $100SD)

Those are great highend assets that can be resigned or flipped. All part of the game in FNHL.

I always look fwd to new owners taking over new franchises. Great energy boost to the league and other owners.

I would like to see new meat own and run teams up for sale, but I can hardly blame PPG for purchasing them. If not for expansion, I would have bought them.

Different GMs have different philosophy on how to build a contender. Philly is already light years ahead of what I took over in Tampa or what jojo took over in Jersey, or Minny, Calgary, SJ, etc.

No other team in the league has 3 first rounders, isn't Picard a top or the top Goalie prospect in hockey? He has multiple top Forwards and Provorov on the back end.

Can't win it all today, I'm not saying that, but the foundation is strong. Hit on trades and the top 6 picks in the first 2 rounds of this draft, and I'm telling you they can win sooner than later.

I can see it, if nobody else does.

I was wondering why it took so long for PPG to buy Philly.
The Flyers are bad but the right man stepped in to buy them.

100 bucks! Big news for FNHL!

I don't see the Flyers as being all that bad. Maybe I view assets differently but I wish I inherited that team rather than the Tampa team I bought for $85 three years ago.

I think in that Division with expansion coming, that Flyers team could win it all even next season with a few moves and a strong draft.

Franchise NHL / Re: Throwing this out there. Making new prospects!

not big on the demotion idea since it would require carrying a guy with no games played and then there is the contract issue. Can I demote a prospect goalie that I bid up to 1 million per year on...It would have to be defined a lot of variables. It would probably play well into my strategies just not sure if it would be good for the league.

Supplemental draft, I like it. I always wanted a way to in a way reward guys doing the work to scout gems. Hate having to throw them into the FA gauntlet where anyone at that point can just google the name.
