My God, I got smacked!!

I am going to the Leafs/Flyers game tonight...GO LEAFS GO!!

I guess Don Cardi and I are the only ones playing this game.
Everyone else has most of day's players sitting on the bench.
:rolleyes:

I've been pretty good at keeping track of who's playing at not playing and moving them around. Although that came back to bite me in the a** I was tied with DMC then I activated David Aebischer(sp?) as my 2 other goalies had off. So what happens when I check back the next day I was behind DMC haven't caught up yet. I just checked I'm down 7-0. Colorado's goalie has been f***ing me this whole week.

Oh well on a side note my Dallas Stars are 4-1.

Question.....

I couldn't seem to find the answer in the "League Settings".......

Is there a maximum number of games at each position?

There doesn't appear to be a limit on games played. Don Cardi should know for sure. He set it up. Also, the rules state we should be able to put someone on IR, but we can't as far as I can tell. I already had 2 goaltenders go on IR.

Your commish needs to do a better job with the standings -- like, showing who's who... Aren't you Ass Commish, Plaw?

Me? No

I'm barely even playing :rolleyes:

Actually I posted the first weeks standings last week. And I was about to post the results of the second weeks standings. As for the IR option, well I am going crazy trying to locate it myself. It does state that a player can be put on IR, but I cannot find anything remotely close to an IR list on this site! So far it looks as though Yahoo is horrible for Fantasy Hockey.

As for games played by a player it seems that there is a minimum requirement for the stats of the palyer to count, not a maximum. Here is a list of the league settings :
Scoring Type: Head-to-Head

Max Moves: No maximum

Max Trades: No maximum

Trade Reject Time: 2

Trade End Date: March 9, 2006

Waiver Time: 2 days

Can't Cut List Provider: Yahoo! Sports

Trade Review: Commissioner

Post Draft Players: Follow Waiver Rules

Min Games Played: 3

Weekly Deadline: Daily - Tomorrow

Start Scoring on: Week 1


Roster Positions: C, C, LW, LW, RW, RW, D, D, D, D, G, G, BN, BN, BN, BN, IR

Stat Categories: G, A, +/-, PIM, PPG, GWG, W, GAA, SV%, SHO


As you can see I set it up with an IR slot. But I can't find that IR slot under my roster.


Don Cardi

Hey DC -

When you post the standings, could you do it by member name (initials are fine, like Plaw and I do it), so those not playing know who's who?

I wanna see who's stinking up the place! lol

LEAGUE SET-UP

Goaltender Appearances

Note:
Each week, your goaltenders must reach the minimum of 3 appearances. If you fail to reach this mark, you will lose all of your goaltending games for that week.

This section will show you an updated total each morning. The numbers will appear red until you have reached the requirement.

In a Head-to-Head League, your team will square off in a weekly matchup against another manager's to see who can compile the best stats across a number of different categories.
A new weekly matchup begins every Monday and will consist of a set number of games based on your league's statistical categories. Each stat category counts as one game, with the win going to the team that finishes the week with the highest total in that category (the cumulative total after each Sunday's games).

So, if in a given week, your team scores more goals than your opponent's, you would be credited with a victory. However, if your opponent's team ended the week with a better save percentage than your team, you would be charged with a loss. If the two teams end up tied in a given category, each will receive credit for a tied game.

This weekly win-loss total will be added to a cumulative season record where each win counts for two points, each tie counts for one and each loss counts for none. The total of these points will be used to determine standings and playoff seedings.


Don Cardi

Look who's talking.

The Hockey Wuss.

Hockey sucks. I just wanna see who I know sucks at fantasy hockey... lol

Ok, I'm working on it right now. But only if you make this topic a sticky so I don't have to search for it everytime I want to post something.

BTW : Weren't you the one who declined my invitation to play?

When they signed up, they never actually told me what there board names were. So fellas, please correct me if I've given the wrong names to the wrong teams.

BTW, the league settings show that I set it up with an IR slot. But I don't see an IR slot on anyones team list!


Don Cardi

I see... so you and Plaw suck, and DMC and "The Master of All Fantasy Sports" (JL) rule! :p

If you want to find your thread easier, then go back to the original post and change the Message Icon to something unique, like maybe " " or something...

Ok, will do.

Oh, and it's only the second week of the season. Plenty of time my friend, plenty of time.

BTW I am 6 and O in one of my fantasy football leagues, and 4 and 2 in another.


Don Cardi

Which is the league that you invited DM and DS to play in, but not JG or myself? :p

Oh, wait. Maybe you invited JG and he declined.

Hi everyone, I'm new to the boards. I am currently playing fantasy Hockey with some of you guys. My team is the Staten Island Rockets.

Which is the league that you invited DM and DS to play in, but not JG or myself? :p

Oh, wait. Maybe you invited JG and he declined. [/b][/quote]Actually Mr. Plaw, I did invite you and Geoff. You never answered my e-mail invitation, and at least Geoff had the decency to tell me that he was already in too many leagues, but would play if I couldn't fill the league. He answered. you didn't bother!

I did send you an invite Plaw, but you never replied.


Don Cardi

You'll play, and you'll like it.

As the person on top of the leaderboard I think it is my duty to say welcome Don Pelosi

Don't let my grand knowledge of fantasy hockey intimidate you in anyway, heck I didn't think I was going to be in first after this week. But after my center scored a touchdown with 2 outs in the 4th quarter, here I am

Not to mention that I had to PM him and ask him why he had injured players starting in his lineup! :rolleyes:


You guys do realize that you can preset your lineup for everyday of the week. Just click on the dates above your team lineup. Mon/Tues/Wed/Thurs/Fri/Sat/Sun

Each day will show you which of your players teams have a game for that specific day.


Don Cardi

A little warning. If you set your lineup in advance, then make a roster move, it changes your lineup back to before you made the lineup changes. Why? I don't know, but it just does. At least it does if you make the moves and changes on the same day.

Thanks for adding that Just Lou.

Don Cardi

I noticed this last night. I set my lineup for the week, and then picked up Staal on waivers. My lineup went back to the way it was before the changes. Then I picked up David Aebischer on a waiver claim this morning, and again I had many players on the bench for the rest of the week.

BTW, I see you jumped on Lundqvist. I was at the game last night, and was wondering "who the hell are these guys"? They can't be the Rangers. I don't think I've seen them own a team for 60 minutes, like they did last night. they toyed with the Panthers. I hope it continues.

You bet I did!

It's only the third week of Hockey, so I'm not getting that excited about The Rangers. Comes around Christmas time, then I'll start to believe. Toomuch past history with this team and their letdowns.

Maybe we'll hook up at a game this year.

I don't know why these sites make things so difficult, like this setting the lineup, etc. I play Football on NFL.com and it has to be the most easiest site to navigate, simple procedures to set your line-up. make trades, etc. Everything is right there for you.

This yahoo Hockey site is very confusing and not that easy to navigate.

I'm still confused as to why we don't have an IR slot in our lineups when the league says that we are set up for it.


Don Cardi

I've been down that road too with the Rangers. The only reason it may be different this year is, they stocked the system with young European style players that seem to be made for the new NHL. The first thing I noticed at the game last night is that under the new rules, there was almost no hitting at all. It was all up and down the ice, just like the Europeans play. It may change after teams get used to playing under the new rules, but right now the Rangers have a good chance to get a head start. Maybe I'll put my money where my mouth is. I'm off to Vegas tonight, and I'm going to check the line on the next 2 Ranger/Isles games this week.
...I had 4 goaltenders get hurt already, 3 are on IR right now. I would have liked to keep one of them until he was healthy. I was going to grab Lundvqist, but Renney is still stating Weekes is the starter when he comes back.

That would be ridiculous if Renny did that! I heard the same thing, but I don't agree with that move. You have to go with the Hot goalie!
