"Dave's not here, man."

Re: Cigar Asylum Fantasy Hockey 2025-2026
 

I think Dave is figuring out how to manage his roster. He's like Scarface. He making some moves...with the right goalie, he'll go straight to the top. :cool:

Re: Cigar Asylum Fantasy Hockey 2025-2026
 

The goalies aren't my problem.

Re: Cigar Asylum Fantasy Hockey 2025-2026
 

I need these gifs again. (BTW Tom, why aren't they showing up?)

Re: Cigar Asylum Fantasy Hockey 2025-2026
 

Well Eichel is looking like MVP.

My NHL leading scorer from last season is -8...

I am noticing you have players on your bench that you could start

Now daccord is a problem

Re: Cigar Asylum Fantasy Hockey 2025-2026
 

Eichel is off to a crazy start. He and Mark Stone were 1 and 3 in stats.

Operator error? ;) ;s

Definitely want to start all the players you can, Dave, exceptions are rare.

And the exceptions are almost always goalies, and on Sunday night, like I did with Vejmelka on Sunday.

Of the 9 stats that count for skaters, the only one that can go down is the +/- rating. So its best to start everyone you can. The "start active players " button is a great way to do that. Though, double check afterwards, as sometimes you can move things around and squeeze an extra playing skater or 2 into your active lineup for the day.

Re: Cigar Asylum Fantasy Hockey 2025-2026
 

I need a couple extra skaters.

Re: Cigar Asylum Fantasy Hockey 2025-2026
 

Here we go, Dave! :ih

Swayman already has my goaltending stats f'ed for the week. Guess I'll try and make more saves? :lr

Re: Cigar Asylum Fantasy Hockey 2025-2026
 

As a life long Bruins fan, its getting difficult to watch them.

Re: Cigar Asylum Fantasy Hockey 2025-2026
 

They sure didn't look good last night, Brother. :(

Re: Cigar Asylum Fantasy Hockey 2025-2026
 

This is turning out to be a very close season so far

Now if only itah would put Cooley on IR already

Re: Cigar Asylum Fantasy Hockey 2025-2026
 

Really close between the top 4, with plenty of season left for others to make up ground.

That IR can be frustrating. I've swallowed a lot of games trying to hang onto solid players that are out for weeks without making the IR. :hn

Looks like a close week between you and I as well, Clay. :tu

Re: Cigar Asylum Fantasy Hockey 2025-2026
 

It really is. But close only counts in horseshoes, hand grenades, and hydrogen bombs. And it's in your favor. That shutout of yours is going to make things tough for me on the goaltending side. I could use my players waking up a bit more all across the board. Someone get them some better smelling salts, please?

Re: Cigar Asylum Fantasy Hockey 2025-2026
 

Brother, I've been up 9-2 going into the weekend and lost 2-9. More than once. I don't sweat things until Saturday, and by then you can be so far up or so far down in certain categories that it doesn't even matter.

I try to remember it's for fun, and that it's 5 cigars for 6 months of fun. But sometimes I get obsessed too. ;) :lr

And can't sweat one week, no matter how much it's nice to win. It's a marathon. :2
