  • For anyone that didn't participate, here was the auction results. Note that the players were nominated by managers (nomination order was assigned by the computer.) I was the first nominator so nominations ending in a 1 were mine . Note also that there were two non-teams in the auction as the espn auction tool requires 10 teams. They nominated in positions 5 and 9 and generally acquired their crappy players (except for when someone accidentally bid LOL)


    I find that looking at the data this way really gives a sense for the flow of the auction.

      Leafs must get worse to get better
      Wilson knows club his headed for a 'process'

      Bruce Arthur, National Post
      Published: Saturday, September 20, 2008
      It was after the fourth or fifth or ninth question about how bad the Toronto Maple Leafs are going to be -- we'd better stop keeping count, because the number will get big, and fast -- that Ron Wilson, the captain of the deliberately sunken ship, went ahead and got to the truth of the matter.

      "Well, you guys are the ones on the radio every day saying the Leafs should blow this thing up and start over, and then you're talking about how we've got to find a way to win within two weeks, and that's not the way it's going to be," Wilson said on the morning that players reported for medicals at the beginning of training camp. "We have to be very, very patient and build this the right way. And the teams that have won in this league didn't win in three-week makeovers --it takes a while.

      • The line of Bertuzzi - Langkow - Iginla is pretty terrifying for other teams, I think. All of those guys can score and all of them are renowned as very tough physical players that are very hard to play against. All three on the ice, if they can get the chemistry, may be quite a force.

        I also like Backlund and Cammalleri playing together. I hope Backlund makes the team. He was phenomenal in the World Jrs.

        And if Lombo doesn't shine this season, he may be tradebait. He was progressing at a great clip til the Hatcher elbow to the head which shook him up for a good, long time...

            That is exactly what I'm hoping for for the ESPN league, since I have all three on my team.

            Also, that is why I have Bert on both teams. He's my comeback player of the year pick right now. Bert could also fold over like a house of cards, but that is know...

            • If he sticks on the first line, he'll get points. You have to be incredibly bad to not get points playing with Langkow and Iginla.

                      • TRAGEDY STRIKES MARKKANEN FAMILY

                        * ITEM: FOUR-YEAR-OLD SON DIES IN FALL

                        This report comes from Peter Adler, the veteran hockey journalist, who spoke to his Russian contact: "Jussi Markkanen's son Oli-matias (4) fell out of a window in the goalie's apartment in Moscow yesterday and died almost instantly ... the CSKA goalie brought his family to join in him in Jussi Markkanen and familyMoscow just a couple of weeks ago ... it seems Oli-Matias was playing with his younger brother, climbed on the window sill and fell ..."

                        Markkanen, 33, played five seasons for the Edmonton Oilers. Last season, he played in Helsinki, but he returned to the Russian league this fall, having enjoyed tremendous on-ice success there during the 2004-05 NHL lock-out season.

                        I'm sure that I speak for all Oilers fans, and all parents, in expressing my deepest sympathies to Markkanen and his wife, Sanna.Jussi Markanen CSKA

                        I will add updates as they come.

                        Alder now reports: "CSKA lost to Dynamo, 4-3, on the night of the tragedy ... Unsure whether jussi will stay or will require a break, the team has called up a spare goalie ... The entire team went to Markkanen's place after the game, to spend time with him and his family ..."

                        Russian TV has some images of what appears to be the apartment, a modern building with large balconies.

                            • Snoopy

                              I have joined our auction league as the "Rogues"

                              NYE-- I was just in looking at our draft league and had two observations

                              1. You were right on the moves thing. With 5 moves a week this means we have more than ample to cover things.

                              2. Even just two more managers means signiificantly weaker teams-- at least I hope it does because my team doesn't feel nearly as strong as last year' s

                              The only good news for me this year is that apparently Marty St Louis will not be regularly penalty killing this year ). This could mean he actually has some energy late in the game to err. ..score goals. Thats the one thing Tampa did last year-- really ride their top players in ALL situations and the results showed that no matter how good your top 5 is, that cannot work. The new coach is making the right noises and Tampa may again be respectable this year ( but still not likely as a playoff team unless their goaltending comes in big)

                                We have ads on our buses specifically addressing this issue ... things like "open your window only 4 inches high", "use top-opening windows", and "screens keep bugs out - not children in". Sort of amusing, until you see things like this, perfectly intelligent people not paying attention...
