GDT - BBKL Round 2 Playoffs

[kyuss]

Upset city! Will and Kyuss both out in round 1 is great for this league.

great for Matthew and Hong especially, as they don't have to face the two best teams in the conference

Further proof that only the great hockey minds win (or should that be singular in this league haha)... and that trying to just win trades instead of win games doesn`t get you anywhere.

Oh, and hi everyone! I check in every now and then, but rarely actually log in. Still fun to follow as a fan of BBKL.

lol, make sure to keep following in futures years, just in case you'll need to update your theories

Not many cup winning teams have an elite farm system, but they do have an excellent core and built around that. Once you sell the farm, you`ll win a cup. Guaranteed.

there is nothing guaranteed in this system, it doesn't make much sense to me going all-in and selling the farm to have a better shot over a limited period of time when Monday's & Tuesday's injuries can fuck your team in any given playoff week no matter what.

I mean there is some truth to both sides of this. There isn't much reason for a team with your assets to be dressing Ahman, Perry, Kakko, Noesen, etc.

Kicking the poor guy when he's down haha. I've always said Mik could easily beat me if he overpaid for players to build a powerhouse team. A team loaded with assets dressing Aman, Colton, Kakko, Noesen, Perry is a choice, but one that he is content with.

I actually wasn't content with dressing Aman, Kakko and Perry (nothing wrong with Colton & Noesen at that cap hit imo), in fact I wish I could have dressed the injured Forsberg, Wahlstrom and Parssinen instead.
And I did try to make one or two more deals at the deadline, but it's not that easy when half the teams don't show up/reply.
And you could say I should have made those other moves earlier, but 1. there were no news about Forsberg & Parssinen staying out for so long 2. all the other earlier moves I made for key players resulted in long term injuries to those players (only getting Bouchard at the deadline reduced the risk of losing him to injury like I lost the others).

Anyways, I guess we'll see in the next few weeks if my team was just not good enough to win or if it just needed Perry to play on Sunday

[Matthew]

Well shit. Makar is injured. So I can either put in zub for him now and hope he has a good week, or run with makar and hopes he gets into some games later in the week.

Makar had been so hot lately running at about 2 points a game and periphs.

[Bruyns]

I need to decide who to play out of Petry, Forbort, Stillman and Bahl. Petry and Forbort are both day to day and could play up to three games or none at all.

With Campbell playing tonight against the Sharks do I still dress Lankinen who will get one of SEA/TOR this weekend is my other decision.

It sounds like it's the dreaded "day-to-day". He'll miss the Chicago game as a precaution. I saw the report that Bednar thinks it's a minor injury.

I wasn't sure where he might've got dinged on Saturday.

[Matthew]

Luckily I should have the room to at least fit seider into my lineup this week so one stud out and one stud in. Just won't have the 2 stud super defense I was hoping for this week.

You have like a 10 gp advantage. I think you will be fine.

Can I dress 3 centres? With 8 W and 7 D? Is that a legal roster?

Yes

But with Samsonov hurt in Washington you may want to sit lindgren. If Saros/Lindgren combine to go over 4 starts you lose your goalie wins stat and the shutouts from the goalie who played more games.


4-5-2 : No team can exceed four (4) goalie starts in a playoff matchup. If a team exceeds the playoff 4-goalie-starts per week limit, all Wins recorded by its goalies will be erased. Furthermore, eventual shutouts recorded by the goalie with less starts will be erased as well (all shutouts recorded will be erased if the goalies have the same number of starts; in that scenario exceeding the total of 4 means at least 3 starts each, hence breaking the limit by

[Matthew]

Damn was hoping you would match my injured makar with injured fiala

[Shep]

Cheers!

[hong57]

oh fk.. samsonov is starting on tue vs isle... i really do hope his workload is splitted with murray during the 4 game week... copley likely gets 2 out of 3...

[CasperX22]

Still a long way to go.
