Hurricanes owner Don Waddell had some interesting comments regarding Alex Semin and the decision to buy him out. Best quote is easily: "In simple terms, we paid him $14 million to go away".

Ouch. Though I will say, $14 mil to fuck off ain't a bad gig if you're the one fucking off.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

I'll fuck off for 14 dollars.

Which of the two are NHL players for you? Beck I suppose could be one, as he's a bit of a tweener but I'm not sure who the other one is.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

And he still gets to play and make money on top of that.

Pacioretty named captain of the Habs.

Voted on by his teammates, which is pretty cool and has got to be a rewarding feeling for him.

Such a bad look for this fanbase.

@frank_seravalli: Patrick Kane receives the loudest roar from fans as he steps on the ice for the beginning of #Blackhawks camp. http://t.co/r5A8nFROBR

No Kane Merchandise for sale at camp.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Hawks organization looks pretty pathetic right about now.

I don't care if this is BS. Jagr is the best.

.....why?

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Camp underway. I was all for signing Zdlicky a couple of months ago but was excited when we didn't to see Pulock get his chance. I guess we shall see how it plays out now

I was glad Nelson signed and got in on time. Otherwise, we were facing another Bergenheim situation like 06 or 07.

I will be making the trek to Barclays at least once this year. One of my best friends' dad is on the board of the Brooklyn Nets and so Friday night he invited our poker group, which is about 7-10 guys to all go to the Islanders - Rangers game on a Sunday in March. Something to look forward to. I'm assuming it's a suite but maybe not. We'll see.

And.......Jagr rules.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

what's the deal with center ice this year? Still no streaming, individual teams, etc?

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Need advice/opinions on my long time auction keeper league. We keep 4 guys and the cap is $450.

I am keeping Getzlaf at $27 and Tarasenko (who I won last year at auction) for $47 and G Corey Schneider at $5. Schneider won't win lots but his other stats will be solid and he is minimum salary.

MY last spot comes down to Okposo who I kept last year for $5 bucks or J Schwarz at $39. I am debating about pairing the LW, a thin position in fantasy, Schwarz with Tarasenko and hope they continue to get better together. I can keep them forever at that price. Okposo is the better value as he would likely go for $40 bucks in open market but Schwarz would go for about $55.

I am leaning Okposo.

Thoughts?

Lack of enthusiasm is disappointing

Can't believe I'll be walking into Staples again tomorrow night! :monkey

Re: The NHL Thread
 

preseason hockey is probably more boring than preseason football

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Finally joined the league. How do I pick keepers again?

Re: The NHL Thread
 

I have not received an email about rejoining the league. Has everyone else?

Re: The NHL Thread
 

How many keepers do we get?

Re: The NHL Thread
 

My Team ---> Choose Keepers
Yes. I recieved an email to the email account that is set up in Yahoo sports
I don't see that all I see is the deadline to choose keepers is 10/6

Re: The NHL Thread
 

I saw it in my junk just now and joined. It was sent Thursday.

How many keepers? I kept three for now.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

I was also wondering about how many. That determines a lot. Keeping Price, there is no doubt on that one.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Keeping Ovie and Doughty. Unsure if I'll keep more.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

As for preseason hockey, yeah I don't give a shit. Most aren't on TV here anyways plus you never know who is gonna play.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Keeping Stamkos and Kessel for sure. May keep Bobrovsky too

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Getting in my obligatory pre-season "Leafs are going to win the CUP!!!!!!"


Carry on.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Ahh found it thank you :thumbsup. I created a yahoo account solely for this league and haven't logged back into it since last year :lol totally forgot about that
