Is everyone eliminated??

[hockeyrobot]

Noticed this the past few years....things reaaaaallllllllllly die down here in terms of lineup advice around this time of year.

Is it because we suck at giving advice and everyone is eliminated in the first or second round???

Or we're so good that no one has questions anymore??

Trade deadline is passed, a lot of teams are out in H2H competition and a lot of non-H2H pools already have the outcome decided.

I made a post about the upcoming draft looking for advice. I plan on bringing up at least one of my rookie picks so if you have any thoughts, I'd love to hear what you have to say.

Definitely the bolded one!!

There's also diving into monstrous projects such as rebuilding Frozen Pool that cut into availability.

Note: This is the first and only "rebuild" that will ever be attached to my name!

I'm still in a dog fight for the championship in my points only league

[Eskimo Brother]

Still have 8 of my leagues that I'm either in H2H playoffs for, or jockeying for a championship in ROTO. Lots of hockey left!

I agree though, it does get a lot slower between now and playoffs, but then it picks right back up again for playoff drafts.

Lol ya but somehow you never ask for help haha

I noticed things have slowed down in the 'General Hockey' forum for quite some time now.

Haha, where's the fun in that?
Realistically though, I'm usually too quick in discussions that by the time I posted something and got answers on it, the deal would be completely different, or accepted/declined.
I learn all I need to just from being around the forum and keeping a pulse on what other people are thinking. So much more useful to answer 5 questions than to ask one.

Keeper leagues that have trade deadlines don't really need anymore advice until the season is over and we all start thinking about the NHL draft!!

Or at least a lot less. Still lots of decisions with waivers, add/drops, injuries, who to start, etc.
You are right though, the trade deadline is really the point where traffic drops, not just people being bumped out of contention.

in my championship week, fighting for the win!

[stevegamer]

My question asking perked up, then became irrelevant. In only the one dynasty league, and lost in the semis due to Vanek going off on my opponents bench then having a unsolvable goalie conundrum. Needed a tie either of those two weeks to advance, lost both.

This whole year I wasn't really posting in the fantasy hockey section, which was kind of odd for me. Just needed to take a break from it.

I also took a MLB/NBA trade deadline approach. I knew I wasn't going to do well against the top team even though I was a top 3 team, I traded everyone I could off for picks.
