So the trade deadline is fast approaching...

Thanks for taking my deadweight loser with like no points in his last 12 games. I was offering him to everyone and trying to get rid of him....

And if noone took him...he got waived on Sat.

Posted: **Fri Feb 13, 2009 4:16 pm**

Oh well. He wasn't much of a difference from Umberger and I've been hearing a lot of rumblings about the Bruins going after him. If they land him, I'd expect to see him turn things around.

Posted: **Fri Feb 13, 2009 5:42 pm**

He won't. He is a lazy useless weakkneed chicken slop piece of dudu. He might for like 5 games, then back to normal. He played well for about 2 weeks for me, the other 2 weeks I kept him...were painful.

Posted: **Fri Feb 13, 2009 6:41 pm**

Don't hold back. Tell me how you really feel about him.

Posted: **Fri Feb 13, 2009 6:58 pm**

He is as bad as BOOOOOOOOOOOO DIEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Okay. maybe not that bad.

Now all I have to do is trade for Kesler. Then I have Burr-Kes and that evil bugger Umberger.

Kes and Umberger hate each other.

Just thought I would note about the beginning of the no trades period.

Last deal in the league.

Umberger-Cole

Stats since deal

RJ Umberger 2g-0a- E- 1ppg, 7 shots
eric Cole 0-0-E-0-1

yep, I stole that one!!!

Posted: **Tue Feb 17, 2009 6:14 pm**

What's it been? 1 game? Maybe 2?

Posted: **Tue Feb 17, 2009 6:21 pm**

Just one...that is why it is soooo funny. 7 shots.....2 goals.....yer new guy: NOT a dang thing. And if Boston trades for him...Boston tanks.

Posted: **Tue Feb 17, 2009 6:26 pm**

No, I think if Boston trades for him, he turns it around. Edmonton just wasn't the right fit for him. And it's sounding like they will trade for him. A recent article in one of the Boston papers has claimed that friends of Cole say he's telling people he's heading to Boston.

Posted: **Tue Feb 17, 2009 6:54 pm**

Nope. He will stink it out there. Lazy lazy lazy. He is the new Radim Vrbata/Sergei Sucksomov. COle sure can talk. No idea what to do on the ice, but he can sure talk.

Posted: **Tue Feb 17, 2009 7:05 pm**

I liked his style of game when he was with the Hurricanes.

Posted: **Tue Feb 17, 2009 7:09 pm**

Two words for ya: One is Eric. I think you can guess the other one.

Posted: **Tue Feb 17, 2009 7:19 pm**

We'll just have to see what happens.

Posted: **Tue Feb 17, 2009 7:27 pm**

I know, but it is fun to get the first shots...all 7 of em and goals...

Posted: **Thu Feb 19, 2009 5:48 am**

Top of the table. For the first time. Woo.

Although at the start i didn't like the Max and Pace settings, it could now come into my favour.

Posted: **Thu Feb 19, 2009 3:49 pm**

Not enough it won't. Maybe against a few guys. But not against me or Corinthians.

Posted: **Tue Feb 24, 2009 5:44 am**

Miller is injured, i feel his pain. Karri Romo is my new goalie. ':help:'

The Max/Pace is making me scratch my head over scratches. I don't want my lesser players take games from Ovechkin and others. It's a rule I didn't give much focus at the beginning of the season, maybe I should have

I've never quite "got" that part either. All of the fantasy hockey leagues I've participated in before have been "head to head" style. Each week you go up against another team and see who does the best in each stat category. Then you have a number of Wins, Losses, and Ties for that week. Each weeks Wins, Losses, and Ties accumulate over the season and that's how you get your standings. That way always made sense to me.

Posted: **Thu Feb 26, 2009 6:07 pm**

That's probably a better way, it makes it a more closer competition. Because if someones guys suddenly heat up now, it's going to be difficult to catch the guys near the top, as they are so far ahead.

Something funny has happened with the standings in the ESPN league. Aussie sharks (SJ Sharks) has a 0 for every stat he has. if you click on standings and then the "real time season standings" button on the left, you will notice it is completely messed up.

Not sure if this is something that they are correcting, but maybe someone who has commish powers should check on it.

Posted: **Mon Mar 02, 2009 7:45 pm**

How strange. But it's fine on the official standings.

There aren't any commish settings that can change this. Hopefully it's a glitch that will iron itself out after the next round of games...

It's really frustrating that I was absent for a month. My team has slipped down from 9th to 16th.

Posted: **Tue Mar 03, 2009 5:56 pm**

Corrected itself I guess.
