I'm retarded..

Confirm

[anton]

you just got neal without touching your starting lineup.

sure i milked it a bit, but you are far and away the best team in bbkl now.

[Robin Hood]

i just threw up in my mouth. awesome trade for anton but i hate how strong this makes scott.

[Scott]

I paid a ton but it's a calculated risk. I'll re-stock to prospect pool in the off season like I did last year

I don't love it for Anton, I think he added alot of ok, potentially good pieces, nothing great. Although it wouldn't shock me if Kassian developed into a H2H stud.

I believe he will.. Kassian, although his 4th year in the OHL, he's really a man amongst boys down there. He really should be in the NHL right now. If he was a month older he'd most definitely be in the AHL and ripping it up imo

Yeah he definately has that potential, but you are no idiot, you know as well as I that it will be quite some time before that potential materializes in the NHL, and who knows if BBKL is even around by then. It's the same reason I traded him, and if I know you, you will reacquire Kassian for less before he reaches that point.

i dont like the "if bbkl is even around by then argument". this league has what it takes to last.

Well most powerforwards, not all, but most develop much later on in their careers, I.E. 26/27/28. Kassian is 20. 6/7/8 years from now there is a very real chance this league is non existant.

becoz of the disaster u r bringing to this league? haha

Among other things, certainly. I mean think about it, where do you see yourself in 7 years? Still playing fantasy hockey? I don't know what my own future holds, but I'd be surprised if this was one of them, even as much as I love it. I'd imagine the same holds true for just about everyone, but I could be wrong, this could be one of those really special leagues that last years.

I find it interesting that you would assume that isn't common knowledge.

uh....why not? am i missing something?

it's not like this is a career. it's something you do in your spare time.

i've been doing yahoo pools for close to 5 years now and this is a hell of a lot better than that.

and correct me if im wrong, i did miss a period time in the middle, but imo this is the most stable this league has ever been as far as competent GMs and activity goes.

That's because it's a good, solid deal..

Well then I suppose I should just speak for myself, I don't personally see myself in this league in seven years.
