I see many of us had frustrating weeks, I lost by 1 point, making me 0-4 in close games now...

Willing to move one of
Krug/Guhle/Ekblad/Ferraro for a good F
Also looking for a goalie better than Fleury & Mrazek
PM me if have any offers

Lol pretty sure you can’t trade anymore with the trade deadline (not the real one, the one in our league) passed

Since the fantasy trade season has passed, I thought I’d look at all the trades I’ve made and see how they’d turned out. I’m just kind of realizing my team is first in points for (and the reason I’m not first is because I’m also first in points again), so I was curious if the trades I made help that

Stone and Marchessault for Konecny and Meier
Not a good trade for me in the end, all of Stone, March and Konecny turned out about the same but Meier has struggled. So in the end not good. The silver lining is Stone is out for the rest of the season

Kadri and Drysdale for Vilardi and Lafreniere
Would have been fair or a slight win for me but I dropped Vilardi 🤦‍♂️. However, I turned around and traded Laf which brings me to…

Laf and Ullmark for Kyrou and Bobrovsky
This was a risky trade at the time but this ended up being a home run for me. Bob has been arguably THE best fantasy goalie this year and Kyrou has definitely turned out to be better than Laf. Definitely my best trade. And I ended up not even missing Ullmark since I was able to steal Markstrom off waivers lol (which more than made up for dropping Vilardi)

Ekblad and Kruger for Ekholm and Myers
I mean I guess I won since Hydration Squad dropped both guys and I still have Myers and traded Ekholm, which brings me to my next trade…

Theodore and Ekholm for Debrincat and Seth Jones
Pretty fair considering I made this trade to have less guys on IR (I had 2 with only one IR spot), and it’s been fine for me as well. Although ironically Jones got injured (not as long as Theodore but still) so I made another trade…

Jenner for Dunn and Haula
Again, it was fine, maybe a slight loss for me.

All in all I think my trades were pretty neutral in how my team did. Some were good and some bad. But in my opinion they’re fun to make so I’m happy with it

My trades:

Sanderson/Bjorkstrand/Draisaitl for Nylander/Necas — The big one. Hurt a lot more during Nylander’s point streak. I still think I got the win in this one.

Rodrigues/Romanov for Skjei — fine, I guess. I dropped both of them IIRC, but I would’ve dropped Skjei anyway.

Ekholm/Theodore for DeBrincat/Jones — Again, fine. Theodore was out longer than I expected, but it’s still a fair deal since DeBrincat hit the slump.

Usually I make more deals!

My two trades
Received Krug and Ekblad from SaskLeaf for Myers and Ekholm: Kinda a nothing deal, I was about to drop Ekholm anyways, held on to Krug for a bit then dropped him, held on to Ekblad for a lot longer... I suppose Myers has been the best player in the deal. Slight loss for me.

Received Necas and W. Nylander from Fleuryous for Draisiatl, Sanderson, Bjorkstrand: Huge trade, and Nylander has outscored Drai since the trade. Necas has been underwhelming though, and Bjorkstrand and Sanderson have done well. Another slight loss.

It's fitting that there weren't that many trades, given that we're on CapFriendly and every team overvalues their own players... that must extend to the realm of fantasy hockey as well.

Zero trades and still first place 🔥

We are likely going to have 2 teams that are over .500 not make the playoffs, crazy (also why does my team pick now to put up 125 points, it's too late, it accomplishes nothing)

**** this league, EVERY TIME I GET A LEAD, I ALWAYS HAVE TO SQUANDER IT

The hill was too tall to climb. I'll be back next year....

Good luck to everyone in the yoffs.

22% playoff odds isn’t the 95% that I had earlier in the year, but it’s better than the 6% I had last week!

Very interesting race happening for 8th spot (and final playoff spot)
Curious to see who I play in round 1!

Yah, it’s a tight race, I have the inside track but it’s not a guarantee at all

I think the bagel guy is gonna have the lead after tonight. But we will see.

Jarry almost ruined my week, thank god Thomas came up clutch

I swear this league is fricking rigged, this is like the 3rd straight week I’ve gotten over 110 points and still lost.

After having brutal luck all season, I'm happy to play spoiler. My apologies

Now I’m in a win and not have @TheFastAndTheFleuryous score 40 points more then me and win and in situation

Hey, I’ll take the ~30% chance!

Good luck this week, whoever wins our matchup will likely have the most "points for" of a non top 10 team

Thanks. Good luck to you too!

Wasn’t pretty, but I managed to sneak into the playoffs

If your opponent had actively managed his roster…

But seriously, congratulations. I’m just salty that my 8-game win streak didn’t translate to anything.

Let’s pour one out for Saskleaf, most points for in the league, yet not in the playoffs

If my team had a better 1st half to the year, things would've gone much better (or an ounce of clutch factor I guess). It took until week 8 for my team to really find its stride and even then, they just didn’t know how to close out games
