    5 hole against 1 is just stupid. As of this moment I have 44 points, which puts me 97th percentile in all of ESPN's playoff challenge, and I'm second to last place in 5 hole against 1. Freaking ridiculous.
    If hope can grow from dirt like me ...

    holy shit what a game. Hawks injure both Canuck goalies in the series and force game 7. If Van. loses, head coach and lou are gone imo. Bolland has brought the hawks back into this thing and frolik and smith came up huge!!! Let's go Hawks!!!

    Lou is gone? Where's he going? He's under contract for 5.3 million until 2022.

    The only thing I have going for me is I still have a few players this round because the Sabres couldn't win in game 6. I never imagined that a bunch of us from the 10C would be so competitive for this stupid ESPN playoff challenge! I'm glad I decided to participate!

    I tried the high risk/high reward method, and it didn't work. I was hoping that Horton and Boyes were going to make the most out of being in the playoffs after coming from non-playoff teams. Also, I'm a Wings fan, and I did not expect them to sweep. I only got about 2.5 games out of Franzen. And I knew Niemi sucked, but I was really expecting the Sharks to handle the Kopitar-less Kings. I should know by now to never underestimate the choking ability of the Sharks in the playoffs. Though, Vancouver looks like they might be able to overtake them in that department soon.

    I'll have to make my comeback in round 2.

    :lol: I'm Just trash talkin....you obviously know your hockey. I've been pretty lucky with my team, and I have all but 3 players in a game 7.
    Big Drop - I wish more people had joined! I need to spend some time looking at that site, I've spent about 20 minutes on it total...but I don't think id give much credence to the percentiles at this point...the other fantasy sites I've used, the user-generated stats are always skewed by unmanaged teams and people with no clue what they're doing..not to deny our awesomeness or anything, but....its also bound to be tight at first.

    I have always believed that Joe Thornton was the most overrated player in the playoffs, i now have reserved that right for Louuuuuuuuuuuuu! its still shocking to me that people call him an elite goalie. What a joke

    luongo is definitely not that great a goaltender ... honestly, i think canada would have steamrolled in the olympics if not for him ...

    some great hockey yesterday ... flyers vs. sabres ... i mean - wow ... that was some killer hockey ... flyers definitely have the offensive guns and just need someone who can stop a puck every now and then ...

    canucks completely outplayed the hawks ... but 4 bad goals and you are facing all those demons ...

    I get why people on jumping on Luongo but what about the twins...how many times in that overtime did they come into the Chicago zone trying to make all the moves and the perfect pass...look at Chicago, they were just putting the puck to the net and going in after it. Chicago is playing playoff hockey...Vancouver is not.

    Who else were we to use in goal in the Olympics? At 1 time goaltending was a strong point for Canada, not so much anymore...but I do see that starting to emerge again with Price and Fleury but they are no where near as good as Roy and Brodeur.
