Cough... I could flip you Emery so you can play the goalie that's in net on any given night...

Wow, Bunk had a monster night even WITH over 20 points wasted on his bench.
Also, I still want Luongo back. God dammit.

Gaborik is the MAN!
Is there any place that will actually tell you before hand which goalie is likely to be starting on any given game? I've tried to find that info on numerous occasions and it's just not readily available that I can see.

The Penguins are great to watch when they actually try.
I went to game one of the playoffs last year.
Cough. Yeah not so fun to watch.

Outdoor game tomorrow at 1 PM Eastern. Stupid NHL, they should have scheduled this on a weekend not featuring so many bowl games, and when half the country is still in bed from their late night carousing.

Game seemed like a success to me. Was good to watch on TV, even though the snow was really fucking shit up and the ice was bad.
Even though I'm a Penguins fan though, I'll admit... Pittsburgh kind of ruined the entire thing by winning, heh. But they tried to give it to Buffalo with that penalty in OT. If you get a powerplay in OT and you dont' score, you fail and deserve to lose.

Spectacle of it was fun. I didn't realize that CBC was also broadcasting it until one of the NBC guys mentioned he talked to Greg Millen...I switched over immediately. Canadian broadcast >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>. American broadcast, although I enjoyed the Slapshot montage that Costas showed.

The outdoor game was a fun game. I wish Pittsburgh hadn't worn those blue unis though? Were those just for this game, or are they one of the normal kits? I like the black, that blue was just too... baby blue.

I loved those blue uniforms. So much so in fact that I'm probably going to snap one up if I can.
Unfortunately they were just a one time thing for that game. A throwback jersey, like the Sabres were wearing. But I imagine they'll become an alternate jersey now so they can sell more of them.

I never even thought to pick up Selanne when I saw he was coming back (or for the weeks before when it was obvious).
And I'm in desperate need of replacing a few of my players who have been dogging it lately.
IMO, there should be money on this next year. Or maybe for a playoff pool.

Still not a fan of the scoring system. If we use something more mainstream (like the Yahoo default), I would be interested in a small wager.

So who all would be interested in a big boy playoff pool? We can do it any way we like, as long as everyone agrees imo. |

Okay, what does everyone think a good buy in would be?
I routinely pay around $30 to get into internet pools with 25,000 people, so I'm fully willing to go higher than that for much improved odds of winning.
$50? $100? I have no idea what people would consider fair and reasonable. You guys have to tell me. I'm in for whatever, so I have to be told what other people are willing to do.
How is the pot divided? Winner take all? 70/20/10? Percentage to charity (I know we're not high rollers giving charity thousands here, but it's always nice)?
We should get something sorted soon and get the show on the road.

I'm more or less broke right now. So if it's more than 20-30, I can't really do it. Even though I'm definitely going to win and take all your $$$ =)

Do we want to go with a winner take all, or provide prizes for second and third so we don't run into what we have right now in the Yahoo pool with people giving up because first is a pipe dream?
I'm not sure what use there is putting money toward charity if there's like five of us doing this, but I have no problem picking a charity and putting 10% toward it on principle.
I don't want to make all of the decisions here, though. This should more or less be a community thing, so it doesnt' look so bad when I take all of your monies.

DO NOT WANT.
Hossa will not resign in Pittsburgh in the offseason. He is looking for 9m + per. We can't afford him anyway, seeing as we have to pay Malkin that much too. He's not going to be looking to sign for a discount, so dont' even worry about that scenario.
We just gave up:
Armstrong
Christensen
Esposito
1st rounder
For the pleasure of having an underachieving playoff performer for 2 months. He's not even a fucking RHS, which we needed badly.
Not to mention the chemistry hit that our team takes by shipping out Armstrong.
Esposito was ranked #1 in his draft year up until around January.

You're probably right, but right now we have fucking Hossa and no one else got him, so I'm trying to remain positive about it.
