Canuck Surfer Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 So here in Oz? Our affiliate club the West Coast Eagles plays in its 4th AFL Grand Finals in 12 years, Stanley Cup equivalent, as favorites Saturday. Against the AFL's version of the Raiders, the Collingwood Magpies. 103,000 people expected at the MCG, with today a public holiday, parades, and Melbourne's sporting culture spilling into the streets. Go the Eagles!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RL. Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 Thank you to all of those who have made the fantasy leagues so enjoyable, but it is with a lot of thinking that I regret to inform everyone that I am stepping down from my role as GM of the Detroit Red Wings. Life has gotten busy and I cannot uphold the standard I expect of myself in managing my team. It has been a great past couple of years with the group in this league, and I look forward to checking back in when I can to see how everyone is doing. The Red Wings have taken a while to get to where they are, but I feel the team should be in good hands with all the youth that is being injected into the line up year after year. To all the GMs, thanks for the endless hours of fun through trade talks and negotiations. There is a great group of guys in this league, and I hope everything goes well for the upcoming season and beyond. Cheers, RL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Primal Optimist Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 New York is shoring up the offensive depth with an acquisition this evening that speaks to what the coaching staff have seen in camp from the prospects who are in house. We have some great young guys coming up, but maybe just not this year. Film at 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring on game one of the NHL! I know this is a little but trite however I really dislike Eddy McGuire and even though I am a Victorian I was glad to see the Eagles win. That game and the final series illustrated how a salary cap and drafting system that is very similar to North American sports leagues has evened the competition out. We have yet to see the real impact of free agency I believe. Today there was no real standout player on either team, it was really a team effort. There was a couple of big moments as you stated and that hit was a beauty. However I think it was McGovern's mark in the backline, their quick transition and the goal from the boundary line that gave them the lead with just 2 minutes to go that was the real key point in the game. They missed a lot of easier chances in the preceding 10 minutes. I will tell you about our half time sprint when we talk next. It made it one of the most unforgettable grandfinals in nearly 50 years of following this game. What I will also note is the genuine warmth and respect that AFL players have for one another after playing such a physical game for 80 minutes. Good stuff.

Primal Optimist Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 ELC SLIDE: The Rangers have filed a request to have the contract of Adam Ruzicka slide. This is the first year of his ELC and we have invested 8 million into the Player Development side of the Front Office. For clarity, as I am confused on the rules: He was signed at the end of our season, in prep for this season...and possibly after that we set our front office budgets. I am not sure when that budget was set but I would have to guess after the player was technically signed but before the first season of that contract. Let me know how the executive interprets the rules, and hopefully that 8 million isn't totally wasted. If we are allowed, then Adam Ruzicka will slide please.

arby18_ Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 The Habs remain in the market for a d-man. We'll be looking to move a forward for one, as we have too many projected to be on NHL lineups to break the season. It's a nice problem to have. Willing to make a big splash or a smaller one. The waiver wire could also be hit up. Current lines at Habs Camp: Hall - Duchene - Giroux Galchenyuk - Patrick - Eberle Panik - Strome - Blais Clifford - Compher - Nieto Formenton - Mamin - Svechnikov Theodore - E.

Primal Optimist Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 The Rangers Opening Night Roster looks like this, with Sekera going on LTIR on day one, and a player acquired yesterday slotting into the 4th line RW spot. I think I am ready for the season, despite two players that I thought would make the team need a little more salt down on the Lake Cowichan Lakers, and a disappointing free agency season...we will perform at an improved level and steadily work towards the playoffs.
