Reply With QuoteA hot Biron means the Rangers can rest the big guy here and there. Great move team wise, bad move for poolies...
Lundqvist benched tonight
WTF!!!
They've only played 2 games this week and the first game was on Tuesday!
This is the second week in a row Torts has done this to me...

lol, i hear ya pain. I got the problem with Sacco and his playing of Giguere last night.
Coaches need to understand the rules of fantasy hockey before they become coaches I think.
Annoying as ****, when your goalies get benched for their backups.
I totally get that, but that's still a horrible move! They're only playing TWO games this week, and the last game 4 days ago!!! On top of that they're riding a 7 game win streak which is something you shouldn't **** around with. How do you justify benching the best goalie in the world in these circumstances.Originally Posted by Killer67
Torts is starting to piss me off... I hope the Rangers get destroyed tonight.
Wow, this screws me over good....*sigh*

Maybe Lundqvist tweaked a groin earlier in the week...it's quite possible there is a minor injury here. Don't always take Torts words at face value.

lol.... I was just celebrating Lunquivst's benching; then I saw my Bryzgolov getting benched... I had to HURRY to put another goalie in. However, if Luongo doesn't play tomorrow, I win by default (onyl 2 goalie starts... have to have 3).
I agree. He's a fantasy killa.. Mike Shanahan has a similar effect on fantasy football poolies.

I would suspect this is right as they don't play again till Wednesday. This is the only thing that makes sense to me...

grammar Nazi
Noun
(slang, idiomatic) 1. A person who habitually corrects or criticizes the language usage of others, especially in situations where it is unnecessary, e.g. an informal conversation.
Notes: This behavior is almost always found in people with very low I.Q's, whom have a very low sense of self worth. Impotence is also commonly linked to Grammar Nazi's.
I can safely say that I echo these sentiments 100%. Let's hope Biron gives up 5 goals in the 1st.

I figured I'd jump in on the complain wagon. Bryz and Lundy on the bench for me tonight. 2 sure games turn to 0. Here's to a good old fashioned Rangers thumping tonight. It will go nicely with the Flyers pasting this afternoon.

Not bad
Hank took an extra maintaince day but practiced yesterday, so he's likely fine. Biron has a great record and Hank has a poor record vs MON in MON. He says he gets "caught up in the atmosphere there.

I hear you, blayze. Our best bet if for Biron to get torched so that the Rangers will think twice before playing him next time. It is pretty frustrating to see this happen again considering they do not even have another game until Wednesday, then they have a back to back right after that, meaning we will probably only get two games out of him next week after only one this week. I drafted guys like Lundqvist early in our keeper league so that I did not have to worry about shuffling goalies and so pretty annoying to see Biron stealing starts.
Torts can go **** himself.
