Yeah... that stinks.
Anderson especially was key. I thought you were going to overtake me consistently until Anderson went down.

Blades of Steel just touched 1st place and then Brodeur went down.

The fantasy hockey gods apparently want this league to be a very, very tight race.

Kesler out again with broken foot, you still have the bug......

Busy night for my team, I finally won a few bidding wars.
Petry, Erixon, Letestu, J.Jokinen, Khabi... all joining my team.
My team has hit a wall for +/- (2nd last) so I figured I might as well pick up some players on bad teams.

The league has gotten very tight lately with the leader down to the low 100s and 4-5 teams floating in the 90s. Seriously tight league!!!

Gotta love the fight by Nickel City to stay competitive... down to just $5 of FAAB!
Spend it if you got it!

Big Faller: Rougie. Fantasy MVP: Craig Anderson goes down with injury.

Wow, that's a tight league. I see you're still hanging in there without Malkin.

When I get a chance I might list our league standings the same way.

__________________
All I've got...all I've got is insane!

If I don't put Malkin in the line-up this week (likely), it will be essentially the 4th week of zero-stats from my #1 pick. (Missing 4/9 weeks from my 1st rounder just completely stinks).

Yup... still hanging around at the top.
I have to thank the rest of the league for that. The guys in our league have done such a good job of all being competitive that there are a ton of teams in the middle fighting it out. I think they'll eventually reel me in and make me part of the pack. My team is just not playing very well... Bryz has been brutal lately, Malkin injured, Green injured, Gaborik has been awful over the last month, Clarkson is ice-cold, Dorsett (my main PIM/HIT guy) just got injured for the remainder of the year. The fantasy hockey gods are obviously displeased with my team. It's actually my waiver-flavor-of-the-week picks like Kopecky, C.Phillips, Prospal that have kept me afloat.

At least Bryz/Varly have me at the top in saves... though 20 wins in 47 games is right with the worst ratios in the league.

It's going to be a very bump ride to the finish.
I don't like my chances right now, to be honest.
