Last night I "won" my league but I really shouldn't have. Get a load of this scenario:
Went into the final game tied at 110-110 each (straight points), which in itself is remarkable after a two week long matchup. Yandle assist puts me up by one, then in the dying minutes of the game Dadonov scores after a puck looks to deflect off of Bjugstad's skate. My opponent has Bjug, but no assist was given on the play initially. Had he gotten that point we would have remained tied 111-111 after the game and my opp would have won the title (rightfully so) on the tiebreaker. Talk about a photo finish.
Fast forward to this morning, Yahoo processes the results and declares me the winner. However the NHL.com box score updates sometime in the last hour to give Bjug the assist after all, but with the season over and apparently no more stat corrections incoming my opponent basically got screwed out of his title because the NHL didn't catch it before the season concluded on Yahoo. I am 100% fine with losing the title because it's the right call, and I don't want to have a tainted win that shouldn't have happened.
Can this be appealed? Or is there a chance Yahoo will correct it themselves?

The commish is handling the money (which was only $10 each or something so not a big deal to me either way) and also happens to be a good friend of mine and the other manager in this scenario, so there is no conflict at all as far as where the money goes. It's his win and his money fair and square and I've acknowledged that multiple times with the other managers since I first suspected the call was missed this morning. Now that it's officially on the box score there is no dispute he's the rightful champ, I'm just wondering if Yahoo will give him the correct credit.
Even then we might be switching to Fantrax next year so what Yahoo thinks or does may not matter anyway. We will copy our league, keepers and settings over to Fantrax and if possible manually acknowledge his win over there (if that's something you can do, I have no idea). But on the chance we stick with Yahoo long term it would be better to have the accurate results on record.

Commish (aka the other manager and rightful champ) is refusing to collect any prize money this year because of the whole mess whether Yahoo corrects it or not, so that is a non issue. Just concerned about the integrity of the results should we choose to continue the league in Yahoo.
