Compete Level

He was basically injured all year so it's not really a good year to judge. He was amazing in the playoffs last year, and really solid in the playoffs with Emberson this year. I like his skating, shot and physicality a lot. His defensive awareness is a bit shit but I think he has the tools to be a go...

If they were able to flip RNH for Kyrou in some sort of deal, you could move Hyman down to 3RW and get this kind of configuration, which I actually really like:

Savoie - McDavid - Kyrou
Podkolzin - Draisaitl - Kapanen
Stenlund - Dickinson - Hyman
Frederic - Samanski - Dach

Some observations: -Top six minutes need to be limited during the regular season. We can't play these guys 24-25 mins a night in the regular season and expect them to be ready to elevate in the playoffs. -Bottom six sucked during the regular season but our depth actually came through in the playoffs...

Also I missed participating in the playoff thread. Oilers were injured and played badly and were soundly beaten by the Ducks. I caught about half the Vegas game last night and they showed them way more respect

I forgot about Steve Simmons. Remember when Burkie said the best part of leaving the Leafs was never having to talk to him ever again

Saying a tearful goodbye to some longtime members of the lindy ruffryders dynasty.

So long, sweet UFAs:

Andrei Vasilevski
Juuse Saros
Connor Ingram

Dougie Hamilton
Darnell Nurse

Carter Verhaeghe
Christian Dvorak
Jordan Eberle
Val Nichuschkin

Cheers Adam, we were down to the wire. Great season and super tight final. My goalies underperformed all year, glad they stepped up when it mattered.

Excited to add another championship to my trophy case, which is now awfully crowded:

2025
2024
2023
2020
2019
2018
2017

Sign Ostapchuk 3x3 ELC

Sign Adam Sykora 3x3 ELC

Dvorak and Drysdale to IR, Sign Dvorsky to his 3x3 and call up Wallstedt

I think Yahoo ended on the Sunday of the last full week of the season, so typically the last few games were cut off, whereas Fantrax is a 10-11 day championship.

It's always a little bit of an issue

Svechnikov, Verhaeghe and Boldy to IR

Ingram off IR, signing Axel Sandin-Pellikka and Danila Yurov to their $3x3 ELCs on an emergency basis

That's fair, I'm happy to look at adjusting the schedule. I did it this way as it's the same as we have always done in Yahoo. I imagine this final stretch of games is going to be rough in terms of player availability.

Waive pending UFA Mike Matheson ($3)

putting my game face on for the finals

Good luck in the next round, everyone!

Looks like some good matchups

Howdy the trade deadline is tomorrow night

I might be interested in wheeling and dealing a bit, let me look at my roster

I dropped Heineman

$3 Dougie Hamilton

I don't think I can change it mid-season but I'll make sure our playoff matchups are correct
