I'm sure it'll work out in the end given who was kept, but hoo-boy, having half your budget vanish before draft even starts is tough.

I basically always try and go all-in on players with center eligibility, but I got roped into bidding for a couple more pure Cs than I'd probably like. Got them FWs locked down though.

Yeah, what do the nerds know about fantasy hockey?

Was there a change to how yahoo handles FA pickups? I'm used to running my team entirely through knee jerk gut reactions and having them reflected the next morning, now I just get a warning about not being able to drop a player that's already played.

Also, the 'Available Players (Games Today/Tomorrow)' seems really wonky, none of the dates are actually correct (today says the 20th) and they don't appear to show the right schedules at all.

Phew, I knew my goaltending in HHL would most likely be trash, but I was at least hoping that drafting all centres would keep me from having to make moves to lock down face off wins

I really shouldn't have drafted Jake Allen. Can Montreal please just lose every game with a final score of 0-1?

I can stomach a losing streak, but failing to win FOWs when my team is entirely centres stings.

e. Season-long dilemma, apparently. Should've just kept Toews and his -2 every game.

I also badly need a goalie, but would prefer not giving up anyone up of value, so if anyone would be cool with letting me fleece them, give me a shout.

Entering the HHL playoffs with what I think is my best ever group of skaters and by far my worst collection of goalies. I'm not sure this is going to go great for me when the difference between skaters shrinks against the better squads.

I don't know, I'm pretty nervous about my chances, I doubt I'll squeak out wins in goalie categories given who you've got and my skaters have been a bit banged up/cold the last couple weeks

Should hopefully be a close one, at least

Jesus christ, absolutely shot myself in the foot bringing in petr mrazek last minute with some galaxy brained thinking

A blackhawks goalie is surely the way forward

This is what it's like to be let down by the leafs, huh? I don't care for it.

I think either of the times I benched Korpisalo would've saved me from this fate, curse my cowardice

Congrats! Your team was really good, not having hits as a lock really threw off my plans for the week

Now that the season's over, even though it might not have ended as I'd have hoped, I'd still like to re-iterate:
