NHL Fantasy League - Game On!

[Asher]

Regehr is injured and I can't add Phaneuf until after the first game, so that should be fun...I'm short a D.

[Guynemer]

OY!

You ninny! You gave me Marcel Hossa, instead of Marian Hossa!

[Hot Mustard]

Heh, with Hejduk injured and Ilya unsigned, my Bench choices were actually pretty easy.

[Asher]

Crap, well that is why I asked people to check first.

Yahoo's offline draft is first initial then lastname, ie: M. Hossa

Drop Marcel Hossa and add Marian Hossa then.

I did. All it says on the draft results page is M. Hossa.


You also gave Ben the wrong G. Murray.

[Asher]

Your guess is as good as mine, all I could see was the same on the draft sheet there (M. Hossa, G. Murray) in a listbox of all NHL players.

Drop the incorrect player and add the correct player.

Someone smack Yahoo with a sledgehammer.

[Asher]

Google should do fantasy sports.

"Windhead" is the city, and "Crocdile" should have a 's'

EDIT: Anyways, I changed it to a better name, the Wolfburg Pact

Good you spoke up. I was about to grab him.

There can be no better name than 'Road Kill'

[Sava]

so do we set lineups for each day? how does this work?

[Asher]

It'll keep using the same lineup unless you change it, as I understand it.

[Sava]

okay... but we can change it daily right? so if my starters aren't playing that day, I can put my bench guys on if they have a game that day?

is there a deadline for what time you have to have lines set if there are games that night?

sorry for the noobish questions, but I'm reading the rules and I don't see any answers to this stuff there

You've got it right - you make can make changes as per who's playing and where/when you want your players to use a game. You can change things pretty much right up until game time - once a game has started you cannot move a player into or out of a spot.

Keep in mind that you only have 82 games per position, so if you constantly rotate in lesser players to use games, you can miss out games at the end of the season that your star players could have used. Some people play 82 games, some people don't - most obviously goalies.
