    This is good news. The Mayor is getting out in front of it.... and by 'it' I mean when things turn around... if events are already cancelled in Toronto... then the LEafs don't have to deal with losing out in the first round again!

    The NHL is considering counting the first 68 games of the season to decide who qualifies for the playoffs, if they find themselves in a scenario where theyre able to squeak in just the playoffs late this summer/early fall.

    I'm all for anything that gets up playoff hockey but I cannot help but think everybody: fans, players, coaches, would want a game or two to get ready before starting the playoffs. ESPECIALLY if the first Round is less than best-of-7.

    That being said I will take this if it means hockey is back!

    Key note from the article between 68-game rollback and point percentage\
    Interestingly, the same 16 teams that would qualify under points percentage would also qualify under the 68-game rollback scenario.
    12 team H-2-H 1 year league, daily roster changes, 3 goalie start minimum/week
    2xC, 2xRW, 2xLW, 4xD, 3xUtil, 2xG, 5 Bench
    G, A, P, PIM, PPP, SHP, GWG, SOG, Hits, W, SV%, GAA, SVs
    C: C. Keller, C. Mittelstadt, B. Nelson, R. Strome,
    LW: K. Connor, B. Tkachuk, J. Gaudreau, J. Marchessault, E. Rodrigues, A. Lafreniere

    G: L. Thompson, F. Gustavsson, V. Vanecek

    Well.. here's a big question with fantasy impact.

    IF.. they did do the rollback to 68 games - would the stats from 69+ be discounted?
    Were some teams 69th games played prior to that final Monday?

    Fantasy playoff matchups ended with games on the Sunday - if they discount games and stats going into the previous matchup - that could mean the difference of some teams winning or losing their early round playoff matchup.

    Would that not mean fantasy teams that have advanced - in some situations would then actually lose their matchup and thus the other team advance?

    FOR EXAMPLE - Simplifying this a lot:
    I lost mine 7-6-2. And one cat by 2 SOG.
    If we roll back 1 Colorado game from that matchup - Mack had at least 4 SOG that game.
    That would mean the cat flips to me and I would have won 7-6-2 and I would advance to the Semi's

    With the Reg season ending and rolling back official stats from games 69 onward - that would put me in the $$ split in that league

    They have enough time to work this out to whatever conveniently works for them while pissing off as few people as possible (impossible to satisfy everyone). Seems like rolling back to 68 gives them the best of both worlds - equal GP and same teams qualify.

    I wonder if the lost games still count towards player/team stats

    Doesn't North Dakota have an 8 rink sports plex with 16 pro-sized locker rooms?

    No one lives in N.D. anyway... quarantine there.

    It's a weird situation for sure. First off everyone should be pretty healthy going into it and the Stanley cup could be decided on which team stayed in the best shape during their time off. I have zero doubt that some teams will be managing this better than others.
    Set roster weekly in H2H (Mon to Sun) - 16 Teams - start 6F, 3D, and 1G per week - Keep 2

    Points: 2 G / 2 A / 1 PPG / 1 PPA / 1 Hat Trick / 1 SHG / 1 SHA / 1 GWG - 3 Goalie Win / 2 Goalie Loss in SO or OT / 5 goalie SO

    Forwards:
    C. McDavid, N. Kucherov, R. O'Reilly, J. Schwartz, J. Toews, J. Huberdeau, T. Toffoli, M. Granlund

    Defense:
    B. Burns, J. Klingberg, R. Josi, J. Slavin

    Goalie:
    J. Binnington

    Travis Greene was pretty candid in an interview earlier this week.

    You need cardio - order a treadmill
    You need to weight train - buy some weights.
    There's no excuses. He's not accepting excuses. He doesn't expect game shape.. but they better be in shape.

    In Sweden they can still skate. So some players will come back in much better shape.

    I mean... I'm running the back stairs in my office building to avoid exercising in the nearby park & walkway. Anyone living in a condo building can do the same thing. There really is no excuse. They can drop a couple grand and get the equipment they need to stay in shape.

    Really it's 1-3 players per team that the coach is losing sleep over. In Vancouver, I bet Greene spends a lot of time worrying over what Virtanen will look like coming back.
    Does he worry about Horvat or Pettersson? I doubt it.
