Ah, that makes sense. Never had a Gamecube but I've played it a few times.
Always been a fan of Midway games.

I must offer some *serious* protest here. As a citizen of Metro-Detroit, Home of the Stanley-bound Red Wings...I find Obi's adoption of the name "Winged Wheels" to be repugnant and the extreme....

Oh...wait...I see Tom Bombadil has claimed the monicker of my home-town team....and thus all is forgiven. Sorry Obi...

~5 hours!

Less than two hours!

Nearly there...and I just got out of my session with the 9 year old...and here comes the bus...hooray! Should make it on time!

You can enter the draft now. Starts in 24 minutes.

So far its just me, Nick, and Tom online.

I'm in...let's go Pens over the Nucks!

(Awesome that the crowd is singing along with the Canadian national anthem...very nice anthem...UK/CAN/US all have good anthems, really...) :)

So when will we be able to see our rosters? Or am I missing something?

Should be soon.

I was working during the draft but knowing Yahoo's auto-draft i can only imagine the wonders that await me when i open that bookmark.

Also for those of you who didn't know, if you go to the Add Players tab and select the drop down for All Players it will show you who is on what team even though it doesn't show up on your roster.

Or you can just sort it by team name.

PENS WIN!

OH did Bobby Lu just fall to pieces in that shootout!

Leafs for the cup.
82 and 0!

no one cares about NHL

its shit

I was thinking just the opposite.
After watching baseball, football, and rugby for the past month it's such a relief to watch a sport that doesn't move at a snail's pace

lol

yeh ok mate. i watch rugby, cricket, golf, football, NFL.... they dont have to be fast or slow to be entertaining or enjoyable

your NHL is a piece of shit. boring, not many play the sport, ... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

ok... So I still don't really understand setting the lineup. I realized that Pekka Rinne one of my starting goalies is only in 2 games this week. (his 3rd will be one week from today) Does that mean my goalie stats are disqualified?

I'm under the impression that because we drafted before this week started, this matchup isn't actually being recorded, which is good, because I don't know much about these rules either. So our first matchup actually starts the 17th.

You definitely want to try and make sure all your non-bench is playing. So you would have wanted to play Lehtonen over Rinne today.

And if you're looking for another goalie, I've got three that are all worth their weight in gold. =)

You play against one player for a week, each day racking up points. So you can change your roster each day (can't move a player after their game starts). At the end of the week, each day's points are totaled and a winner is declared.

I think this is the first matchup that counts. Maybe not though. Thanks for the tips. I was really confused about the whole lineup thing.

But we've not had any points recorded, and when I click on "matchup" it automatically goes to next week's.

Oh. Ok. Yeah, I just checked too, you are right. I was all sorts of confused. Thanks for clearing things up.

Tomorrow's the first round actually being scored, so make sure your team is in order.

How about that Kessel?

If Kesler doesn't play this week, I'm in for a hurt.

Phil The Thrill, baby!!!!

Leading scorer in the NHL. He's not playing on the perimeter this year. He's actually going to the net.

Go Leafs go!!!
