And I badly need to get a true keeper D. When you release two out of three keepers D's from last season you know that you're in a slippery slope.

This round looks way too close right now, it will come down to one or two blocks or something.

So if you still want to do it for us Manimal it's:
SURA trades Derick Brassard, NYR C to BBS
SURA trades James van Riemsdyk, Tor LW to BBS
BBS trades James Neal, Nsh LW to SURA
BBS trades Dougie Hamilton, Bos D to SURA
Let's do it. Need a bit of a change up and need some assists and PPP.
I'll set it up tomorrow before the games start

Perfect! This is quite a gamble for me but hey, the potential gain is there.

Bears beat me due to one more blocked shot, I'm psychic.

I'd pretty much written the week off after being behind going in to the final day. No thanks to me not setting my lineup early on for a night. Irony is, Hamilton and Neal won me the week.

When I realized that I lost the goalie battle already halfway I took nothing for granted and predicted one or two blocks being the decider, and I was correct. Yeah, the trade would have given me the win, but barely. Well I wanted tougher battles and I got one.

Aargh! I've lost Patrick Kane to injury! They say 6-10 weeks, so he's likely gone the rest of the MHL year

Saw it and feel for you. I've had Hall on the IR for a while already.

And here I thought I made a smart move picking up Neuvirth on waivers... From starter with lots of shots against (meaning saves) into a backup
I barely lost last gameweek. Had Jonathan Quick played his whole game, then I would have won

I had a claim on him too and was surprised that he wasn't in my lineup when I came home. Dodged a bullet there!

What did you do to Neal? That guy haven't done anything since we traded and that even affects Rinne for me.

You beat us Corithias by pure offensive power. I don't like how I'm the only top team losing this round...

Good luck to our finalists!
Beware that his is a six-day matchup and has a limit of three (3) acquisitions

It was a close one, I was praying that Perry wouldn't score a GW at the end. Goalies won the game for me!
One question though. People have began to get players from the FA in the offseason already, are we allowed to this year?
