Nice to see the Americans finally break out and get me a few pts today. Ugh.

I owned 3 FINs. Good chance most of us had the same FINs

Without the Finns, my chances to win are dashed.

How to lose this hockey pool in 10 easy steps:

1- You take Yakupov as your captain instead of RNH.

2- You take a player from Latvia, and that guy isn’t even playing.

3- You select Nathan MacKinnon

4- You take Seth Jones.

5- You don’t take the team Canada goaltending, instead opt for the US goalie

6- You take Radek Faksa

7- You take Olli Maatta

8- You don’t take Ryan Strome.

9- You think too much about the defence, and take Hamilton and Murphy, instead of Canadian forwards

10- You take J.T. Miller.


Probably not a coincidence, I've done all 10 of these.

This was Hilarious!! Same boat as 1, 4, and 7.

#11. You take Binnington as Canada's goalie thinking Subban will fall flat on his face.

12. Draft 2 Swedes (Hampus Lindholm, and goaltender Oscar Dansk) who combine for a grand total of ZERO minutes played.

LOL! I am with ya on 1, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 10. Could be why I am near the bottom of the pile as well.

I also took Hampus Lindholm so there's one roster spot simply wasted. I was happy to hear I was not alone in that stupid mistake.

A lot of offense today, should be interesting to see how it affects the standings.

Yeah good to see a lot of my US guys finally contribute. I'm shooting for mid-to-high 20s finish. Might be a stretch, but that would make me happy.

...or not last. That would make me happy too.

Same here - I have Gaudreau so happy with his production today. I've been hovering between 10-15 for much of the week but slipped down to the 20s yesterday. I'd be happy with a top 20 finish, but I wouldn't complain about if I end up no worse than now. Wasn't expecting much going into it.
