There's a code of conduct which prohibits slap shots?

100 MPH slap shots I would hope so!

Haha I guess so.

Exactly how I feel too.

I totally agree with your rankings. My defensemen are 100 times better than yours

I would have ranked Thomas 5th out of all of the goalies (only ahead of MAF - he's awful). Give me Hiller and Price anyday of the week over Lundqvist (best Goalie available) and Timmy Thomas. Hiller and Price are trained at getting peppered with shots and standing their ground. Cam Ward is hit and miss but I definitely like him more than MAF.

I must say, I was a little bit ruffled after GMG took three of my players I wanted right before me (C. Perry, Rick Nash and Weber).

I really should have took Nash sooner as I was without a LWer until very late into the draft. However, Kopitar and Eriksson are underrated and will shine when placed with these All-Stars.

Let's tally up the points post ASG and see who wins

Good Times GMG.


Oh ya - Prediction: Claude Giroux - ASG MVP

What about richards? Ericson is not going to be a revalation.... Kessel will be though

Bah who needs defense at an ASG anyways

On the other hand, under the wikipedia definition of slapshot, there's a picture of my main man Weber! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slapshot

GMG/DY - ASG Point break down:

Skaters = 1 point G/A

What to do for goalies? minus GA?

GMG

edit: Secretly I wanted Marc Staal, ex-Sudbury (OHL) player, and I knew he'd fall to me. The brother ties is a little bonus too.

G/A= 1 point
GA = -.5

we either have to go with SV (ie. 0.1) with no deductions for GA or go with deductions for GA (ie. -.5 we have to keep it below 1 or else the entire team will be in the red).


I also wanted Marc Staal but in the end I took good ole dan boyle instead.

Let's do minus .5 for GA.

Go team GMG!!

So guys, with the scoring in place, who takes it?

DY = 24.5 Points
TIE

It looks like we have a dead tie. Congrats GMG. It looks like we will have to defer this until next season.

It was awesome seeing so many underrated players have such strong games - Patrick Sharp (MVP), Shea Weber (4A and +6 in an ASG), Loui Eriksson (2g,2a), Marty Havlat (3A) and David Backes (3A)

Pretty cool.

Summary
- GMG had an impressive 22 assists -wow!
- DY had a leading 13 goals (those assists don't count without my team's finishing ability)
- DY had the stronger goalies (as I predicted :P) allowing a whopping 2 goals less
- GMG had some great individual performances with Sharp (MVP - 3P), Weber (4A) and Briere (2G, 1A).
- DY had the most balanced scoring attack. He only had 1 player (Keith Yandle) not record a point - now that is impressive
