    Traded for Neuvirth before the deadline and paid a fair bit because I needed a goalie and hoped he'd be traded somewhere he'd have value. At least he's still farm eligible.

    Traded for Thomas before the deadline and paid a fair bit because I needed a goalie and hoped he'd be traded somewhere he'd have value. (Different league from above).


    Dropped Stempniak to grab Thomas when Lehtonen went down (same league where I traded for Neuvirth)


    And in the one league where my goaltending wasn't shit, I bought the Mason hype, decided I didn't want to carry four goalies, and flipped Crawford (who I scooped late in the inaugural draft summer of 2012 and had never received a good offer for) for Filip Forsberg, who is happily grazing on my farm.

    I really need to outsource all goalie decisions to a third party next year.

    Yep. I did that too. Lehtonen, Backstrom, Emery. What could possibly go wrong?

    Traded Okposos + draft picks for MSL at the trade deadline... MSL has done basically nothing since then, and Okposo is rolling like JT is still playing with him..

    Yikes. This thread at least gives me some perspective on the grand-scheme of awful decisionmaking that goes on every season. I'm bound to make some serious errors. We all do it.

    In my main cash league I dropped Hedman when he was cold at the beginning of the year, traded Vanek and Giordano for E Kane and OEL (Vanek's hat trick probably would have sealed this week for me) and stated Kuemper this week over Lundqvist thinking he would get more starts (not looking good). The jury is still out, but definitely a few regrets..

    I dropped both Hedman and McDonagh 2 weeks into the season in my keep-12, after their super slow starts.....didn't think either was close to keeper material.

    Was incredibly lucky enough to snag both back during the season, McD a few months back and Hedman last week. Whew. I would have been sick to my stomach.

    Traded Okposo thinking I was selling high.
    Dealt for Scheifele the day before his season-ending injury, then had to move him at a discount to get rid of the injury (Dynasty league). Worst is, I'm not gonna make the money anyways.
