I was looking at the matchup last night, and I actually looked at your team too instead of just my team, and you've been starting PK Subban, and he isn't signed. He's been giving you literally nothing all week.

Looks like a battle between two 0-1 guys.

Hockey doesn't work like football, habs. Each category you win counts as a win, each category you lose counts as a loss, and each category you tied in counts as a tie. If nothing changes after tonight it will be a battle between two 4-6 guys.

I know, but I can't exactly drop him now can I? I'm hoping he signs soon as the little Yahoo news bulletin said he was going to take the weekend to review his situation. For fucks sake man, the season is already shortened, piss or get off the pot!

But you could stick him on your bench, instead in your active line-up.

He is on my bench if I have someone to play instead of him, but I only have 5 defenders. It's not like I'm starting him over Boychuck is all 5 of my defnesemen are playing. He's only on my starting lineup when he has a game and there's nobody else to fill that slot.

Thanks for the info, JGlass, I didn't realize that. I thought whoever won this week's matchup got a single point, then the slate was wiped clean to start again next week against a new opponent. That's nice to know as I assumed I was going to lose this week to Ty. Good luck next week.

......and we are done.

Just b a r e l y got a 6\5 victory in overall points.

Very good matchups & back and forth this week IDR. Your team is a beast.

Sooo many injuries for me right now. Hartnell is out, possibly until the midpoint of this short season, Vanek missed today, and Ray Whitney is day-to-day.

Right on man, you too. I'm hoping my team shakes out of the week 1 blues and makes up for their lack of production last week.

I'm disappointed you ended up winning assists. I was leading those all week

It's so hard to predict what's going to happen. I was comfortably ahead on PIM's all week and I thought it was a done deal. Then Ryan Clowe gets 35 penalty minutes last night, leaving me with a very slim victory of just three minutes. Just goes to prove that there's no such thing as a sure thing.

And congrats to Ty for a tight but well deserved victory last week.
