I picked up David Legwand from waivers (for some unknown reason) and now I have centres up the wazoo.

I might be tempted to move one of my top centres now that I have some depth.

Last night I went -5, with zero points and 2 PIM. Woohoo!

bayrider (Mission NW) killed the Admirals playoff hopes in one fell swoop. Obviously he was away or he would have replaced Olie the Goalie with somebody healthy.

It looks like I could play the spoiler between Some Random Losers and BroChaos_Flyers. BroChaos_Flyers should have an easier week but he needs to make up nine points (which would seem unlikely).

Due to the events on Sunday, it looks like the three way tie for 2nd was avoided.

If things stay the same, we could have:

1. Mission NW vs 6. Some Random Losers

2. Fred's IceDragons vs 5. Team Mac

3. CTerry511 vs 4. Xavier

Positions 2, 3, 4 are all up for grabs. Mission NW vs Some Random Losers seems pretty safe though.

I think we just go into the playoffs playing a knockout tournament. There won't be another draft for the playoffs (there wasn't last year in my other league). The 1st and 2nd teams get an automatic bye into the semi finals, leaving 3rd and 6th to battle for a place and 4th and 5th to battle for a place.

7th -12th place teams also play in a knockout tournament called 'consolation'. It works in exactly the same way as the 'championship' playoffs with 7th and 8th place teams getting the bye.

And there is no way im playing in the consolation playoffs dammit!!

I have been spending a lot of time with my gf, so I haven't been keeping up that much this season.

I think there might be a problem with the scoring system this week. In my match against Fred the score is 11-7 to him...

The reality is 7-4 for you. I'm sure they'll get it sorted out by the end of the week. And if not, lucky for me. :D

What a pile of crap! I missed my championship spot because my w-l-t record is 111-107-35 and BroChaos' is 113-109-31. That sucks big time.

You can pretty much blame Dominic Hasek for that. You were beating me all week until Hasek turned in a 6.00 GAA and a .760 save percentage.

For that matter, if your other goalie had gotten a win (Peter Budaj) then you would have been in too.

My problem is that I have lost momentum recently even though Martin Biron was a good pickup for me.

I know. Talk about bad luck, The Minnesota Colorado game went into over time as well, damn that was close. Winning the consolation tourny is now my priority, anything less i will consider a failure.

It almost pains me to say this but im rooting for Fred to beat the BroChaos flyers now :p

    • Classic Outlook vs New Outlook — Which one do you prefer and why?

      By spacelordmaster · Posted

      Who uses Outlook anymore? Seriously. When you have open-source and completely free clients such as Thunderbird, Outlook is really obsolete now.

      "Low price of just $340" ? I don't think so, especially when these same memories were less than $100 just last year before the AI craze started.
    • Spyro: A Realm Beyond revealed by Toys for Bob, the first new entry after almost 20 years

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Spyro: A Realm Beyond revealed by Toys for Bob, the first new entry after almost 20 years by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The Xbox Games Showcase had a surprise reveal from Activision that wasn't related to Call of Duty. The Microsoft-owned publisher revealed a brand-new Spyro game, confirming the return of the series that last had a brand-new entry appear nearly 20 years ago. Watch the new Spyro: A Realm Beyond trailer above, which shows off a new look for the iconic dragon. While most of the trailer is a rendered cinematic, the very end does feature a snippet of gameplay captured on PC. The development team working on this project is Toys for Bob. This is the same studio that delivered the Spyro Reignited Trilogy remasters that brought back the original games for fans. "We are huge Spyro fans ourselves and we are so excited that 'the adventure continues'," says Toys For Bob Studio Head, Paul Yan. "I know the wait has been excruciating but we’re so thrilled to finally come out of stealth and confirm that a new Spyro game is indeed what we’ve been up to these past few years." As is evident from the trailer, Spyro has grown since his previous adventures, and that means he is better at flying too. Players will be able to fly around with freedom for the first time in the series this time, and not just inside mini-levels. "In Spyro: A Realm Beyond, Spyro will experience the freedom of true dragon flight," adds Yan. "He’s small, but mighty, so we had to do a lot of different experiments to explore how he could be both nimble and still be very physical when actively pushing his way through the air." The studio promises the return of whimsical worlds to explore, with plenty of treasure and activities to find. There is a new antagonist coming in to threaten this peaceful world too. Moreover, Tom Kenny is returning to voice Spyro. Spyro: A Realm Beyond is releasing sometime in Spring 2027 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2.

      Oh, of course not. The real "victims" are the people who snipe kids in the head, have killed more journalist than all the worlds wars combined, do double tap strikes on medical personnel, claim history started on October 7th, have a $700 million dollar annual Hasbara budget and pay influencers $7k a post to spout exactly this kind of propaganda. How dare you question the most moral army in the world. Victimhood belongs to these genocidal freaks alone. Anyone who denies that is literally Hitler. If you're going to support a terrorist state, the least you could do is come up with better talking points.
