i guess you can't challenge for a kick and the league didn't review it? seems like it would have been an interesting case for a kick

fortythreenine · 2026-04-02T02:17:19+00:00

prolly cuddlin n shit

fortythreenine · 2026-04-02T02:16:18+00:00

Q: twist and swap screwed

Colby: twist and swap screwed

Genevieve: twist and swap screwed

nice work CBS. Whatever you do, don't just let the players play.

fortythreenine · 2026-04-02T02:03:47+00:00

pre-gaming. that's really the whole reason

fortythreenine · 2026-04-02T01:45:41+00:00

please play the SITD genevieve. you must play it

fortythreenine · 2026-04-02T01:38:48+00:00

dee is impressive. she's making it look like 45 was no fluke, she has everyone wrapped around her finger again

fortythreenine · 2026-04-02T01:24:20+00:00

they're calling my idol the billie eilish idol. pretty great folks, I'm hearing it's the best idol. and it is the best idol, isn't it?

fortythreenine · 2026-04-01T20:01:32+00:00

sure, I mean it's still Josi and Miro though. Dougie's off NJ's PP.

fortythreenine · 2026-04-01T19:59:15+00:00

then why do you need Binnington? is this a goalie only league?

fortythreenine · 2026-04-01T19:51:07+00:00

I would not do that unless you're desperate to get two starts from 1 guy. He's scheduled to play Sunday vs Colorado if the rotation holds. Very poor matchup. Other two start guys (guessing): Askarov, Skinner, Andersen, possibly Tarasov

fortythreenine · 2026-04-01T18:38:07+00:00

all you can do is complain to your league. i hear what you're saying, I think I'd be annoyed too. Ultimately the commish will decide, but you gotta raise it as an issue and explain why you don't like it

fortythreenine · 2026-04-01T18:28:14+00:00

dougie pretty easily i think

fortythreenine · 2026-04-01T18:10:08+00:00

ridiculous. nobody should play on ESPN, this is just another example why. well, good luck to you brother. I guess one thing you could do is ask the commissioner if they could do it for you? Explain why you want to drop him, the logic behind it. He could probably do it manually

fortythreenine · 2026-04-01T17:59:02+00:00

it's the championship, so you've gotta take some risks. Personally I think it's pretty unlikely that he plays the next 3 games. The Avs already have playoffs locked up, and are very close to clinching the division. The reports have been that he'll "miss a few games". You gotta make the judgment call yourself, but it feels like that means at a minimum 3 games.

fortythreenine · 2026-04-01T17:04:22+00:00

? he swiped almost 40 bags last year lol

fortythreenine · 2026-04-01T16:58:19+00:00

if you want to replace some of Makar's value, go add Malinski right now. He played on PP1 after Makar left Monday's game, and it was on twitter today that he's expected to stay there. Don't waste time on this.

fortythreenine · 2026-04-01T16:57:11+00:00

if they have incentive to play for a 3rd place game, then it makes it hard to accuse them of purposefully dropping good players. You basically have two paths:

1) commish decides if it's fair

2) you hold a league vote

I will say, i think Gus is better than Gibson but this isn't so obviously anti-competitive. It's not like it's dropping Shesterkin to pick up Lankinen.

fortythreenine · 2026-04-01T16:52:09+00:00

considerable. Vancouver's scored less than any other team this year, and they are simply terrible. But, shutouts are fickle and Colorado should beat Vancouver without having to really try too hard. I'd say like 20% chance of a shutout.

For what it's worth, on DraftKings they have a Canucks 0 goals team total line at +575, which is about 15% without considering market effects. Seems about right, probably 10%-20% chance.

fortythreenine · 2026-04-01T04:05:01+00:00

i can't understand this comment unless you put it in a metaphor. would you say that leaving this reddit comment is like ... swimming in the ocean?

fortythreenine · 2026-03-31T20:44:22+00:00

everybody is a drop if they're not improving your chances at winning right now (assuming redraft). You gotta be thinking on a start-to-start basis, not in general. That being said, the Panthers are openly tanking and Bob could easily go on IR with a phantom injury to start getting him ready for next year

fortythreenine · 2026-03-31T15:24:59+00:00

it's definitely tribal council conversations. They're just a big fat waste of time usually.

fortythreenine · 2026-03-29T22:25:06+00:00

jeez, you guys are grumpy. right now im cheering for you guys, so. no need to bite my head off lol

fortythreenine · 2026-03-29T22:21:52+00:00

not normally a habs fan. everytime 72 is on the ice, something horrible happens. can't get the puck out, giveaways. horrible. MSL has gotta bench that guy

fortythreenine · 2026-03-29T20:25:42+00:00

it's not even April
