2011-2012 NHL Season Thread: FUCK COREY PERRY

[Deader2818]

Just wait till you get to all 30 teams playing and then you have no idea who the fuck to play. (like this saturday)

Ok, Fantasy Hockey peeps help me out a bit.

ESPN league. My opponent is outscoring me hardcore on volume alone. He always seems to have 7-10 guys active every day when I'm playing 3-4. The one day so far where he isnt outnumbering me I clobbered him by 40. But outside that hes nickel and diming me day by day and has ~20 player advantage over me at the end of the 10 day match.

Am i doing it wrong?

Team:

Just how it seems to go early on. I was losing all week and today my team put up 40 more then my opponent, so I have a 20pt lead now but tmo I have nobody playing and he has 5 ppl. Then the final day of the matchup I have 4 and he has nobody, unless he picks up a FA by then. Week long matchups mean scores can change drastically by the day, instead of like fantasy football scores which change drastically by the hour.

I wasn't sure how I'd like the ESPN league, but the points system is pretty fun I think. The drafting menu was tons better than Yahoo, too, but I expected that.

The game tonight was brutal. Canucks did not deserve to win. Could have been 3-0 Columbus in the first if either a)Schneider hadn't made some good stops early or b) Columbus figured out their offense. Hodgson was our best non-first liner, he was all over the ice which is great because it shows the kids got talent. If he can maintain some consistency he could be potential replace Sturm, who is looking terrible, on the wing when Kesler gets back.

Sturm looks so slow on that line. Mind you he didnt play much preseason.

Yeah, I think i much prefer this point system to yahoos.

Crosby Update: He meets with his medical team today. Potentially, they could clear him for contact as early as today, which is the next step to re-entering the NHL.

The problem is he's not going to get any faster either. He's already said in the media that it's not speed he's got to work on it's positioning. It's only 2 games in but I'm watching Sturm to see if he can show anything, because right now I have my doubts. Our fourth line is looking better though, so this year I think it will probably be Gillis' focus to get better wingers on the second line.

If people interested

Im interested but Ive adopted a no-Quebec policy on NHL12. Every Quebec person I face is either ungodly good from playing the game way too much (I saw someone French with over 300's GP on EASHL before the game was even out 1 month), or they cheat their motherfucking asses off when they can't win easily.

Sturm was pretty useless imo when he joined the Caps last year, really don't know what people saw in him that he kept getting ice time.

Come Play against me you'll win np

[Callisto]

I will also win against you np! I have to finish this game I've had from Gamefly for 3 months this week and I'll be back to playing NHL12 lol

[Ivaden]

I'll be getting NHL12 on Black Friday since I'm a poor piece of shit, and I finally got what I needed to make my brobox only headset work on the PS3 as well, so I'll be able to communicate. I needed to finally vent my anger when MW3 comes out.

[Ratatapa]

well im 2-0 online but yeah doesnt men shit

[Brill Weave]

Anyone else notice that Mark Letestu of the Penguins is a dead ringer for Elijah Wood? I keep waiting for Gollum to jump him coming down the runway.

[Ratatapa]

Also go vote for the poll in general discussion

[Brill Weave]

Wow. Matt Cooke just got the loudest ovation at the introductions so far at the Pens home opener.

[Callisto]

lol Florida's PP skates around in their own zone for 30s of the PP for no particular reason

[Callisto]

Outside of their passing Florida honestly doesn't look half bad, too many guys floating out soft passes though
