NHL Fantasy League - Game On - Episode VII

[Kontiki]

My goalies have done me in the last two weeks.

[notyoueither]

It's coming right down to the wire with dejon.

The threat of a SO by Emery drew him into playing Kipper. The 3gaa should give me a 0.02 edge on the week to flip a win.

Meanwhile, his team has come back to tie the PPP, but Mara has assured me a tie in goals. Also, with his P/M meltdown it is currently tied with Mara's goal and +1 putting me in position to slavage a further 2 points from what looked like a disaster earlier.

Go, Coyotes!

[notyoueither]

There goes the +1.

Score on the powerplay, you bastid!

[notyoueither]

No! Score even strength and get an assist on the PP, you bastid!

[notyoueither]

Damn you Gretzky! The Oilers need you to win!

They don't necessarily deserve it, but they need it. Cough up!

[notyoueither]

Anaheim wins 5-2 and Mara slips to -1...

My 'positive waves' technique needs a little work.

[Hot Mustard]

Nice finish to the week for my guys.

[notyoueither]

You did have a really good run for 6 days.

[notyoueither]

I think you won 3-2, btw.

So cheers.

[notyoueither]

Which brings up a question, since it was very nearly 2-2...

How are ties broken in the playoffs?

[joncha]

If, at the end of the season, two or more players in a Head-to-Head League finish tied in the standings, the following system will be used to break the tie:

1. Most total points.

2. Most total wins.

3. Most points in Week 22.

4. Most points in Week 21.

5. Most points in Week 20.

6. Most points in Week 19.

7. Most points in Week 18.

8. Most points in Week 17.

9. Most points in Week 16.

10. Most points in Week 15.

11. Most points in Week 14.

12. Most points in Week 13.

13. Most points in Week 12.

14. Most points in Week 11.

15. Most points in Week 10.

16. Most points in Week 9.

17. Most points in Week 8.

18. Most points in Week 7.

19. Most points in Week 6.

20. Most points in Week 5.

21. Most points in Week 4.

22. Most points in Week 3.

23. Most points in Week 2.

24. Most points in Week 1.

25. Random "coin flip."


In the event that a playoff game ends in a tie, the deadlock will be broken using the following system:

1. Most team goals.

2. Most team assists.

3. Lowest team GAA.

4. Highest team SV%.

5. Most team wins.

6. Most team shutouts.

7. Most team powerplay points.

8. Most team game-winning goals.

9. Most team penalty minutes.

10. Most team plus/minus.

11. Random "coin flip."

* If a team does not meet the minimum goalie games requirement used in the league, they will automatically lose any tiebreakers goalie statistics.

[Hot Mustard]

Yeah, I'm happy they did okay, and to 'win' the week - but ultimately I'm looking at getting into that last playoff spot - and I didn't collect as many points as I had this morning.

Oh - just looked at the standings - I will barely slip into 6th. And what's more - the matchups for next week also seem to be in my favour (me vs. Krazy, displace deez nutz vs. Ninot's Ashers).

[notyoueither]

Barely into 6th? Did evil bert turn it around on the last day as well?

[Hot Mustard]

By my reckoning:

6 displace deez nutz 68-53-19 .554 155 4-2-1
7 Hot Mustard Maniacs 69-56-15 .546 153 3-4-0

Will become:

6 Hot Mustard Maniacs 72-57-18 162 3-1-3
7 displace deez nutz 69-58-20 158 1-5-1

[notyoueither]

That is a win better than when I looked.
