G Antti Niemi $8,100
G Jonathan Bernier $7,400

I'll be looking to cut this list down to 3LW, 3RW, 3C, 4D, 2G

yah Im gonna run with kessel/JVR/Kadri again. When that line gets hot, boy do they go off...

going with kesler and daniel sedin again with Garrisson as my one d and so far chara as my other (might change him though.)

Just like you I have bernier set in. Not sure if he will get the start tonight after Reimers big shutout though...gonna have to keep my eyes on that. /last pick for me is iggy. Hoping that boston top line continues on their hot streak..



good call on zetterberg and dats imo. I had my eyes on them for my lineup. If I jump in the 2dollar tourney tonight i may use them. so far just in the 1$ one and 2 nba (1 freeroll for 300k sunday bomb)

I don't think Lupul's 100%, I'd probably pass on him tonight.

Mike wroteCOLONI don't think Lupul's 100%, I'd probably pass on him tonight.

Only reason I was looking at him is I think that line could see a jump in production after Line 1 was completely dominant last night. Might just swap him for JVR who is $1000 cheaper.

Here are my player distributions for tonight. It's more diverse than I had planned, but pretty obvious I tried am sticking to: TOR, VAN, DET, SJ and PIT. I had more PIT before, but Rask I am worried about.

Entered 7 contests tonight.

Do we know Bernier is starting?

im not sure myself, but i have him starting atm too.

you can edit any position right up until puck drop pretty much though.

might change iginla and chara. Not sure I like them going against pitt who havent put up big numbers in a few days...they are due.

I'll make the swap once we know for sure. Quick Player Replace is my favourite tool some Sundays for football.

BTW, my D (outside of Kronwall and Garrison) were picked soley on +/- and Shots. It's impossible to predict points, but I figure 1pt = +1 is a good way to get mediocre points out of cheap D instead of spending $6000+ and having the studs throw up an offensive goose egg.

i do that with my d as well shep.

Vlasic is a beast. Turning into quite the d-man.

yup i switched vlasic in for chara (i think pitt goes off) and then took pavelski for iginla.

im liking my nba lineup too...


Tony Parker

Jameer Nelson

DeMar DeRozan

Lance Stephenson

Andre Iguodala

Al-Farouq Aminu

Kevin Love

Andrew Nicholson

Dwight Howard




my 2nd lineup in the nba is...


Deron Williams

Isaiah Thomas

DeMar DeRozan

Terrence Ross

Landry Fields

J.R. Smith

Kevin Love

David Lee

Dwight Howard

I'm going to stick to hockey because that's where I think my edge on the the competition is the greatest. Everything else will just end up being a leak lol.

I'm definitely getting in on this action with you guys. Will be setting up an account on Saturday to throw down some small NHL and NBA bets. I love sports gambling, but I'm also cheap and have debts and a mortgage so will be playing low stakes.

I hate having a mortgage... it's awful.

I put more money into the NFL games. I feel they are lot less about chance because there are so many more points to go around.

Also, we can create games. So if we get a bunch of people going we can have 2-10 person tournies BBKL-style.

Now we do:

Paul Hendrick @HennyTweets
Jonathan bernier starts tonight. Ramo for the flames and no expected lineup changes for toronto. #TMLtalk

Nice. Thought Lupul might take tonight off but sounds like he's playing too.
