Orca Hunters.

Apparently our matchups don't start until the 18th? Come on Yahoo, that doesn't make any sense...

Yeah. The first week is a week and a half long, and since we drafted on opening day, it wouldn't let us participate in week 1. So ridiculous.

Hooray for my goalies! (Except for you, Anderson. You're benched.)

Seriously, there were some crazy goalie stats in several of the matchups this week.

Who is #13 Forever? After watching everyone else pile up the wins against him, it is my turn this week. I'm worried that I am going to squander this opportunity. Anything less than 8 wins will feel like a letdown.

One of my buddies from school. He's been a consistent manager in the past - I think he's just forgotten about this league. Do you want me to remind him now, or after you play him this week?

[dtaylorl]

Haha. Go ahead and remind him. Definitely better to have as many people involved as possible. Besides, I'm off to a good start this week anyway

[dtaylorl]

Bah! Lost my matchup by .01 GAA, .003 SV% or 1 PPP. To even tie in any one of those categories would have given me the win. And to think I missed out on a shutout earlier in the week because I started the wrong goalie. Oh well, congrats Adam+, you did well to come back especially without your two best players.

Rinne, Howard, and Halak have been amazing all year, then disintegrated this week. Not that the rest of my team was much better. Oh well, that's how it goes sometimes. Art, I'm taking you down for 3rd place!

I really wish I had not beat Hookers down so badly a couple of weeks ago. My team is so good. I really thought I had a shot at the championship.

[tmlfan123]

Well if it makes you feel any better you're wrecking me for 3rd...

Going into the playoffs I definitely thought you had the best shot at winning because your team got hot at the right time. Unfortunately it just takes one week with a few players having a bad game or two and its over. Interestingly I had a great record against Hookers all year long, even at the beginning when he was leaving everyone in the dust, but struggled against some of the lower ranked teams (Ginger Wolverines for example).

Yeah. My team was terrible at the start, but I knew I picked a solid team that should eventually contend, so I stuck with most of my team. Then I picked up Eric Stall, who I knew had to turn around, which he eventually did. They just had to have a bad week in the semifinals. Ugh. And it was a terrible week, too.

[tmlfan123]

Well it was a lot of fun everyone, I'm obviously a little disappointed with my team's playoff run but it was a great year.
