"ZMHL Fantasy Hockey: The Quest for a 3-peat " Tue Oct-03-17 09:15 PM by smutsboy
My 3-peat.
(Edit: this is now the draft/season post)
Usually I invite people to this league for the opportunity to lose to ConcreteCharlie, however I now dominate this league, so come lose to me. Although kinetic and CC had the best teams last year and I had no business winning but OH WELL.
Normal rules. 4 teams make the playoffs. Draft is Tuesday 10/3, 9pm EST. (the day before the seasons starts)
HMU if you're interested.
Zeno - if you're out there: Auston Matthews can suck it.

He stole a lot of my tricks and generally stays on top of shit. If it were not for the random nature of hockey and fantasy hockey especially maybe he'd have won at least one title already.
I feel pretty good about this season though.
And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

BBall and baseball are probably the least luck-driven although weird shit does happen in baseball.
Hockey has a lot of weird stuff with injuries, penalties and having the right feel for when a shitty player has a great game in them. Our league is pretty insulated from the first two because there is so much depth that injuries mean a lot less (my other league injuries are ruinous because everybody is already owned) and PIM don't count for much.
Football is super weird though, the way they use backs now makes it tougher than say 10 years ago and of course the fact that kickers count for anything is un-American and weird.

I feel like this is the most accurate hierarchy we have ever had or at least in the ESPN era. Big matchup this week. I wish Jarry were still going for Pittsburgh but whatever. I feel pretty good about how my team is playing now but you always manage a good week.

I picked up Cam Atkinson at the end of the season and he ended up being my 2nd scorer in our series.
Also next year I might bump our playoffs up two weeks. The last week of the season everyone was losing star players left and right as they got rested for the playoffs.
