Ok then.
I'm looking forward to tomorrow to see who I'm up against. Hopefully my goalies pull their heads out of their asses or I'm hooped.

My first playoffs..... and I'm learning a lot.
Should have blown up my goalies late in the season. Holts is shit. Raanta is broken. Murray is concussed.
On the bright side, no more tim budong.
From now on when we have a bad week, we pulled a budong. His name is now a verb, and that's awesome, hahaha!  | |

It's not really any different from the regular season though.

It comes down to the final weeks though.
I could have traded potential keepers to the bottom 4, and got tendies who would survive the final weeks
Live and learn I guess...

You didn't realize 3 failed conference finals ago that Holtby was shit hypa? Cloutier of the modern era... couldn't backstop all these high powered offense teams in front of him when needed.
Should have grabbed Hans Gruber the job stealer!
I have also been suffering through Murray's concussion(s) in my keeper pool........... after stupidly trading Vasilevsky away in favour of him  | |

Not sure why you don't remember. But it looks like it'll be a tough match up for you this year. You better pick up a goalie fast cuz it's already Wednesday and you still have 0 goalie appearances and you need a min 3.

Murray has progressed from taking controlled shots to full shots and coach Mike Sullivan is encouraged by the goaltender's recovery from a concussion. Murray has missed the last seven games. | 
I want Murray as one of my keepers. Unless Holtby gets traded, I think his days are numbered and I'm willing to let him go. It doesn't help that Washington traded off all their defensemen. Are they counting on Ovi putting one more puck in the net than the other team?
Regardless, I'm going to have some great keepers next season.

Murray was one of my keepers..
It’s too bad he’s such a piece of glass/riddled with bad luck.
Ps: Taresenko has done nothing since our trade, so no sympathy from me lol.

I'd be okay with one keeper tendy. Make it more interesting for us in the draft.
Btw, I was down 9-1 on Wednesday.
It's now 6-5 for espresso.
And I have more goalie starts coming.  | |

I have no goalie stats, and he has 6 players on the ice tonight. Feeling a little stressed right now. I wonder what the pool is going to look like tomorrow? | |

I found out too that they usually sit starters late in the season. I have 5 goalies right now with 3 starts. Tough week.

Oh well, I knew if I want to win this pool, eventually I would have to go thru you. Let's do this JqC!

Might as well congratulate JQC now. I'm done this week. I'm not even sure how I made it here. lol
If I faced Blah or JQC last week, I would've been eliminated.

Is this still going on?
I'll be honest, I stopped caring after tying a plug last week.

I was not expecting this last matchup to go two weeks. Expresso has an outside chance of overtaking me in some key categories. I should be able to repeat as long as my team doesn't implode.

I'm thinking you're safe. Although expresso's roster had a great finish, yours is just too strong.
I'm looking forward to next year's draft. And to see who keeps whom.

Hey Cammertime!
I had zero goalie starts last round. This round I'm benching guys because I already have the goalie stats I need to win. 10 starts, and not a single shutout
Now I'm rife with goalie stats.
