Boston/Ottawa Game

[Mr. Guru]

Bruins play on the 17th, 19th, 21st, 23rd, 25th, and 27.

Ottawa plays on the 16th, 18th, 20th, 22nd, 25th, 27th.

The only games these two teams could play is Wednesday the 24th or Friday the 26th.

The 24th would give Boston 3 games in 3 nights.

The 26th would give Ottawa 3 games in 3 nights.

The Celtics and Bruins share the gardens. NBA playoffs start on the 20th I believe, so I'm not even sure if these dates are available. Not to mention the Friday would have probably been booked for a show or concert, I'd have to assume.

The NHL regular season ends on the 27th, the Draft lottery is the 29th, playoffs don't start till the 30th....so you'd have to assume the 28th as a potential date as well.

It's going to be a complicated matter for the NHL, and not sure how this would work for your H2H leagues.

I've pretty much resigned to the likelihood that Rask owners will lose a game either way.

If the game extends beyond the scheduled regular season then all owners of BOS players will lose a game (or more) as well. One guy in my league has Seguin, Bergeron and Chara and started them all this week in the semis of our playoffs... ouch.

Uhhh.... I give a shit about my h2h match-up, and I think many others probably do too. Doesn't make us any less sensitive to the events of today. Isn't that the whole point of this thread? To update poolies about an event that affects their fantasy hockey teams? I mean... this is a fantasy hockey site after all, and last I checked this is the "general hockey chat" forum. Let me help you remove that stick from your ass bro.

Really? Your comments on this thread are borderline sociopathic man. Believe it or not, some things transcend fantasy hockey, and some things (like your concerns for your H2H match up) are better left unsaid.

Right... and yet in your utter moments of despair during this horrible tragedy instead of saying a prayer and reaching out to any friends you have in boston (all of which I did) you instead turn to the dobber hockey forums to read threads on... wait for it... fantasy hockey.

Yeah... you're much better than the rest of us sociopaths.

blayze did say 'it may sound insensitive but...'

When they said the game was cancelled I'm sure he wasn't the only one who thought that, or at least wondered about how they would fit it into the NHL schedule.. I don't think that makes him a sociopath

They have already said the game will be made up on the 28th.

In my weekly H2H (2nd round of the playoffs) I lost 4 starts last night - Rask, Chara, Horton and Lucic. This will come back to bite me in the ass I think, BUT if I can wiggle my way into the Finals next week, I will get those extra starts at the very end to help swing the week. Fingers crossed.

That's absolutely brutal. Hard to come back from a 4 game deficit like that.

[Big Ev]

I lost Turris, Silfverberg, Chara, Seguin, Bergeron, and Anderson.

[TrueNorth]

Any word on the game tomorrow vs Buf?

Is it a go?

Damn that's pretty rough.

Ugh, if I miss another 4-start game I'm toast. Please play.

CBS hasn't updated their schedule next week to reflect the additional day yet (the current schedule ends on the 27th as per the original regular season end).

Have any of the other fantasy providers updated their H2H schedules to reflect the 28th yet?

Nothing updated at Yahoo, but considering it only become official today, I wouldn't expect to see any changes reflected until tomorrow at the earliest.

I also reached out to CBS in regards to the 28th. I expect a resolution within 48 hours.
