    A need-based trade for sure. This shows that even if the players involved aren't big contributors relative to those higher, they can still make a difference. Nice to see deals like this one.

    It's been pretty fun, I'm hoping to be able to finish Top 3 by the end of the season.

    it got really close recently. at least half the teams are really close to first place. i'd gone from 7th to 3rd, and up and down a few more times just in the last week.

    Halfway up the standings now since Dec 1st when I was in last. Still would love to make another deal or two, so let me know if you're looking.
    Also really surprised no one put a bid in for Darling considering how far back a lot of us are on goalie games.

    Closing the gap fast. Up a couple more spots in the standings since the last check in.
    Again you guys surprise me by not bidding on Pavelec at all. Starts are valuable with so many guys short on goalie stats.

    Also 3 trades in the league and I have been part of all three. The discussion is sorely lacking

    Thanks for chiming in.

    Yeah sometimes people rather just play and not comment, but appreciate you trying to keep it going!

    I just enjoy having some player discussion in terms of trades is all I am trying to drum up.
    Everyone has their own demeanour when it comes to general league comments.

    Ah right, that's what you meant. Yeah, I'm with you on that as well. It's good to get some back and forth trade discussions, whether or not they result to a deal.

    Just a few comments on the deals I have made.

    This is my first time participating in this type of league (roto, multi-cat). I am finding it very difficult to assess player value. What makes it tricky for me is that there it isn't always landing the better player. A large factor is what my team needs, and can afford to lose. Interesting and challenging.

    Rackell for Clutterbuck is pretty laughable on the outside, and I wouldn't recommend it, but I need hits more than assists so I did it. Another part of me says if it ain't broke don't fix it. Oh well just for fun anyway. I'm seeing my hare falling back to some tortoises in the last 3 weeks as well. More intricacies I am not even going to try and manage.

    Yeah, I've gotten a couple lucky snags off the WW. Excited for the competition to round out the season!

    In need of a goalie, I can spare a dual eligible F, and/or a D. Send offers please.
