Well for myself, I had an expansion team. So I had to pick off the players other teams didn't want to keep. I'm currently 3rd out of 10 teams. I have 5 players on IR right now.

How are your guys' teams doing?

12 team keeper league. Not sure how many keepers yet.

Picking it up as of late - Backstrom seems to have found his game. Wild Bill* and Barzal* have been a bit of a steal. JT Miller moving to C has been a blessing for him as he's been relatively consistent since moving off the wing. Can't complain about Niedereitter, Point*, Ehlers, or Buchnevich. Just waiting for Getzlaf to come off IR so I can move Kyle Connor somewhere.

Defensively, Burns is waking up finally. Giordano has been steady, but I expect him to pick it up a bit. I picked up McAvoy* a few weeks ago and have Yandle doing his thing with Spurgeon on IR.

Goalies... what can I say? Bobrovski*, Dubnyk, Subban.

Although with Fleury getting healthy, I'm concerned about Subban's starts. Kid has been rock solid starting material.

* - guys I have slated for keepers. Not sure how many we're keeping yet.

I've got four teams.

2 H2H:
5 of 14
2 of 10

In a H2H 1 win league, I inherited a terrible team at 0-3, but managed to go 2-2-1 since then and move up to a tie for 10 out of 14 teams

Only one team this year. 14-team long-time Yahoo! keeper. I went in with LW Ovie, C Getz, RW Simmonds (traded Panarin), D Doughty and G Quick.

Quick's injury killed me last year but he's anchoring my team this year. FA Namestnikov, Wilson and Butcher are really helping.

I'm in first by 22 points, a lead I had early on until 3 teams passed me, then fall back.

Had to miss my draft due to prior commitments so my team got auto drafted. Started the year 0-3 so I shook my team up with a couple big trades and have gone 5-1 since, which leaves me 5th out of 12. I'm liking my team a lot better and essentially traded Karlsson for Malkin today so that should help even more.

Not a good year for me

I had a poor draft in my Yahoo! Winner's League, so at about the 1/3 mark of the season - while last overall and last in every goalie category - I decided to bench my roster and become inactive

My other team is middle of the pack, but could make a run in the 2nd half if Patrick Kane starts playing like a 1st rounder

1, 1, 3, 7. Stocked up on the big Lightning names in the two first place leagues, adding Namestnikov later. It's paying dividends.

I'm 9-2 in a 10 team h2h.

My late picks have really made my team, I took voracek 112th and Boeser 207th.

Sitting 4/10 in a H2H dynasty league with a weekly potential of 24 points. There are 3 points between myself and 2nd place, so it's still super tight midway through week 11/20 before our 3 week cup matchups.

Being buoyed by breakout performances by William Karlsson, Dylan Larkin and a lack of injuries through the roster without any eye-popping superstar performances.

13th out of 14 in a H2H yahoo league. I believe I have a good team. Had a horrible draft but have made several trades to fix my squad. Need guys to get healthy and hopefully I can work my way back up.

I'm first with a 10-1 record in my points h2h league. My first 4 picks were Karlsson (10th), Seguin (11th), Josi (30th) and M. Murray (31st). Barkov (71st), Klingberg (90th) and Schwartz (110th) were my best pick value wise I think. Also picked up Sergachev from UFA who's been a good addition.

In my h2h category league I'm also first. My first 4 picks were Burns (7th), Karlsson (18th), Wheeler (31st) and Crawford (42nd). Other than that, Giroux (55th), Kopitar (66th), Barkov (79th), Point (151st), Barzal (199th) and Boeser (234th) were my best pick value wise. Although, I ended up dropping Barzal two weeks in because he wasn't really producing. I have also dealt away Giroux ( Giroux + Dadonov for Pavelski + Ehlers ). Both Pavelski and Ehlers have started to pick it up after a poor start so I'm happy with the trade even though Giroux looks for real this year. Some of my good UFA pick up include Nugent-Hopkins and Pierre-Luc Dubois ( who gets me many hits and FW and he as LW eligibility ).

I"m part of two one year leagues.


First league, and the one I enjoy the most, is a points only. 1 point goal, 1 point assists. 2 points for a goalie win and 5 for a shutout. You dress 12 forwards, 6 men and a goalie WEEKLY and it's locked. Won it last year by a single assist lol. Only 6 people including myself in that one. No add/drops but you do get 2 waiver wire pickups at the 41 game mark.

This year has been a complete write-off

Both of my rosters were performing below expectations, so my players are now on the bench and I'm no longer active

Not that well. I am in 6th place (out of 16) right now. We have playoffs during actual Stanley Cup playoffs, and only 8 teams make it, so I'm far from sure I will. Last year, we had 12 teams, so it was much easier, but now thanks to expansion... I did propose letting 10 teams in instead of 8, but my proposal was voted down.

Also, we added hits and blocks this season, which made it much harder to figure out every player's absolute value. I am trying various formulas, but haven't found an ideal one yet...

I do have some really good players (McDavid, Wheeler, Klingberg, Shattenkirk, Kreider, Panarin), but it clearly isn't enough. The goaltending team (Bishop and Allen/Hutton) is OK.

In my dynasty league (G, A, PIMs, PPP, SHP, Hits and Blocks) among the most surprising valuable players to my roster are Tom Wilson, Evander Kane, Joel Edmundson and the now retired Derek Dorsett for their remarkably consistent contributions in PIMs, Hits and Blocks in addition to the occasional offensive category contributions. I'm currently 3/10 in my league, after an absolutely abysmal goaltending performance last week cost me 2nd place with 4/5 goaltending categories losses (Quick and Gibson killed me on Saturday).

If you are interested, shoot me a PM and I might be able to offer you some suggestions for free agency pick ups after hearing about your full roster and all scoring categories. My 10 team league features 25 man rosters and 40 player farm teams, in addition to a junior team for entry level draft prospect development - meaning that our league plays an incredible amount of depth guys because 650 players are accounted for between all active rosters. (though some of these are prospects we're waiting to watch develop we didn't want others signing - IE Kiril Kaprisov is on a GMs roster, despite being under KHL contract for 2 more seasons after this one, so he can maintain his rights if Kiril plays in the NHL in the future).

Thank you. I actually do have Edmundson. Right now, I think LW is my weakest point, with Kreider being out. I have Panarin, Jenner, Killorn, DeBrincat and Martin (some of whom have other positions as well).

I'm in 3rd place out of 15 teams. Top 6 separated by just over 20 points going into tonight's games. It's been a real good race thus far.

It's a keeper league in our 7th season and I just acquired Seguin and Haula for picks + Wennberg so I will retain him along with Backstrom, Benn, Tavares and Klingberg. Needed the additional scoring to hopefully put me over the top.

11-team roto league, I'm currently in fourth, have been steadily inching my way up. My +/- (last place) and raw-number goalie stats (starts, wins) have held me back but I've been able to improve by initiating three trades in a league that generally is tough to deal in. Not a single Dman I started the season with remains on my roster as I now use that position to bolster my shots, blocks and hits categories.

G: Gibson, Fleury, Schneider
D: Ellis, Trouba, Edmundson, Nurse
F: Malkin, Trocheck, Schenn, McDavid, Bailey, Rantanen, Barzal, Granlund, Panarin, Guentzel, Zibenejab, Arvidsson, Duvois, Foligno, Palmieri Meier

G, A, P, +/-, PIM, PPG, PPA, PPP, SHP, SOG, FW, HIT, BLK, GS, W. GAA, SV%,SHO
