Dave (PLK): Kelowna...you tanking?? who the hell is Kaapo Kahkonen??? lmao Ban Edit 8 hours ago x
alsrevenge (Sabres GM): Maybe he's trying to make it fun; he could win putting up half a roster lol 7 hours ago x
alsrevenge (Sabres GM): Hasn't the Kokanee manager been with us for years? How can he not know that we don't have a waiver wire? He added a free agent signing the other day? 7 hours ago x
alsrevenge (Sabres GM): Is not dressing a goalie legal? I've never seen that before. What a bloody cheap move if it is legal. 7 hours ago x
Tbone (Kelowna): Why have roster changes after the first week if you're not going to make the most of it. Wasn't going to overtake MINP (and likely not Wins either), so better use of cap on skaters. 5 hours ago x
alsrevenge (Sabres GM): That's not my question. My question is: is it legal to not dress any goalies? If that's allowed, presumably you could trade your two goalies and play the entire season without goalies. Since you were first in every category you could win the league... 5 hours ago x
alsrevenge (Sabres GM): doing that. Seriously, I've never seen a league that allows a team to put all his goalies in the minors. is that legal here? 5 hours ago x
alsrevenge (Sabres GM): IMO it completely destroys the credibility of this league if you are not required to dress a goalie. 5 hours ago x
Tbone (Kelowna): Totally different situation, waiver free playoffs allow for whatever combinations a GM feels gives them the greatest chance to beat an opponent, if that means sitting goalies, cannot see the problem with that 5 hours ago x
Tbone (Kelowna): For the regular season, there is little advantage to not dressing goalies, since it's going to be tough to do well losing 4-5 goalie cats every week. I barely took the regular season title having one goalie 5 hours ago x
alsrevenge (Sabres GM): You were first place in every category except TOI. If you benched your 1 goalie, you would have done even better. 5 hours ago x
alsrevenge (Sabres GM): I've never seen a team bench all their goalies to load up on forwards. That makes a complete mockery of your line up. It's not like you aren't going to win dressing a real line up with a goalie. 5 hours ago x
Tbone (Kelowna): Come on, it's a lot closer than it appears, you're 3 cat wins away from taking it and you have a lot more starts from your top players like Hoffman, so based on my calculations, that extra skater help could make the difference 5 hours ago * x
Tbone (Kelowna): And I guarantee you I won't have won the regular season title if I benched my 1 goalie all year 5 hours ago x
alsrevenge (Sabres GM): You're either bending the rules or cheating, depending on perspective. This extra line up period was created to deal with injuries and such (i.e. Toews in active line up for finals for 2 weeks when injured). 4 hours ago x
alsrevenge (Sabres GM): I've never seen a league allow a goalie slot to be used by a forward. Never. 4 hours ago x
alsrevenge (Sabres GM): Whatever. Enjoy your title. 4 hours ago x
Tbone (Kelowna): What are you talking about, I'm not using a goalie slot for a forward - we're restricted to 19 skater slots and I had that in week 1. All I'm doing is allocating cap from my Goalies to Skaters. 3 hours ago x
Tbone (Kelowna): I analyzed my best options for beating you based on your lineup - and even from the very beginning determined I was unlikely to outduel you on the goalie front. So dressed my optimum lineup to deal with that in both weeks. 2 hours ago x
Tbone (Kelowna): Sorry if you see this from a different perspective, but there is a reason I'm at the top of every category stat - I take great care and attention to optimize my roster to have strength in every category and make moves accordingly to accomplish that. 2 hours ago x
Tbone (Kelowna): In each of my playoff matchups, I analyze my opponent's roster, starts and projected stats to match up my own roster against, not just flip players around at a whim. That's part of the enjoyment I take in meticulously looking at all the finer details. 2 hours ago x
Tbone (Kelowna): But if you see that as bending the rules, well that's your opinion, but I see absolutely nothing wrong with it 2 hours ago x
Vancouver Canucks: Was there no way to run the finals over two weeks? It is being done in other pools that I am in. 2 hours ago x
alsrevenge (Sabres GM): Mr. Vancouver - we used to run the finals over 2 weeks. In the first finals, Jonathan Toews was listed as day to day, so the owner put him in the lineup. Then it was announced later that he had a concussion. So the manager was stuck was an idle player.. 2 hours ago x
alsrevenge (Sabres GM): for 2 weeks. That was why we changed it to allow two lock in periods. It was never intended as a cap manipulation tool. 2 hours ago x
alsrevenge (Sabres GM): In all the years I've been here I've never seen anyone deliberately remove all NHL goalies from their line up. 2 hours ago x
alsrevenge (Sabres GM): Every league I've ever run in has required people to be competitive, and to have starting NHL players at each position where it's possible. 2 hours ago x
alsrevenge (Sabres GM): I was partially mistaken with his minor league goalie. I was looking at the live scoring...and that just shows his team as having no active players at goalie. 2 hours ago x
alsrevenge (Sabres GM): So he's not cheating roster wise, just using a loop hole in the rules to manipulate the cap. 2 hours ago x
alsrevenge (Sabres GM): It's still completely bush league IMO 2 hours ago x
alsrevenge (Sabres GM): But whatever, I've already submitted my resignation to Dave. I'm over it. 2 hours ago x
alsrevenge (Sabres GM): I do wish you all well, as well as the league in general. 2 hours ago x
alsrevenge (Sabres GM): My only regret is never making a trade with Frank lol. 2 hours ago x
alsrevenge (Sabres GM): Enjoy life peeps. And ciao 2 hours ago x
TheNudge (Portland): The best way would to have a limit of 180 min played for your goalie stats 2 hours ago x
TheNudge (Portland): If you do not reach that number after 1 week then you wouldn't be able to set no goalies for the final weeks since you would forfeit your goalie stats if you don't log in at least 180 for the final which is two weeks you forfeit those goalies stats 2 hours ago x
TheNudge (Portland): I ve set a minor league goalie as my starter which is exactly what Kelowna did about an hour ago x
TheNudge (Portland): if Kelowna made the most out of his goalies why not bench your starter and suit up a minor league goalie while using that to better use. about an hour ago x
TheNudge (Portland): I don't see anything wrong with doing that
