On first impression I read your Hanzal title and was like... what the hell? And then I read it again and it triggered! Zoolander! Haha. Hilarious.
Another quiet Sunday with Anaheim, as per usual, taking on the Phoenix Coyotes.
Studs
3) This Title Getzlafs
Ryan Getzlaf finally came through for his owners with a typically well rounded fantasy evening. His line of two goals, plus-three, four SOG, two hits, one block, and ten FOW was just what the doctor ordered.
2) I don't think they can Yandle this... WOOOOO!
It was a bootylicious Sunday for Yandle owners who have suffered his mediocre start. His one goal, one assist, plus-one, three SOG night hopefully helped you resist the urge to pull the trigger on that Yandle for Wideman deal your buddy has been pushing.
1) Hanzal... so hot right now... Hanzal
Best fantasy line of the night goes to Coyotes centerman Martin Hanzal for his stellar two goal, plus-one, four PIM, five SOG, nine FOW night. Who said everything is barren in the desert?
Duds
3) Dale Tallon
Not exactly Sunday's new but seriously Tallon? You moved Booth for that? Here's my extended take on the trade.
2) Suckie Duckie
What happened to the once formidable Ducks power play? They were 0-4 tonight winning just two of seven faceoffs with the man advantage. They clearly need to do better as their power play currently sits 26th in the league at a measily 10.3% success rate. Until that comes up there will be more struggles for the Ducks stars.
1) My Name is Jonas
Question: Does Hiller have vertigo again? Cuz he certainly played like it tonight allowing the Coyotes no name brand of offense to score five times on 19 shots, in less than half a game's work. That crushed anyone who played him on Sunday hoping to get a leg up in their goalie categories to close out the week. **** you Jonas!

That Hanzal title is the funniest title in the history of Studs and Duds.

Great post, metaldude. You made a one-game night entertaining.
(Everybody except the Ducks has the good sense not to go up against both the NFL and the World Series.)
RETIRED
On another note, OEL is becoming a serious dman..
Love the Weezer allusion too -- great studs and duds.
