Bluth Discussion Thread PT 7: Advance 1/18 @ 11PM CST

[HabsIslesFan]

I can't imagine anyone was less active than me over the last two weeks and i still got all my games in during this sched except for one against the wings so I would say advance dat you know what!!

Seems a bit unnecessary to me.

I was away for 5 full days, and I'm pretty sure I only missed 2 games--one last block, one this block (which was actually a accidental / premature CPU play).

Simming is part of the league, right? If some people don't get their games in, I don't see that big of a deal.

I probably have a bigger stake than most. I'll be away from Jan. 3-Jan. 8, so if we wait until New Years Day to advance, I'll go about 2 1/2 weeks in between real playable windows.

EDIT: I'm confused. Are you saying you are too busy to advance tonight (which makes sense) or that we should hold off three more days for people who haven't gotten their pre-Chistmas games in yet (doesn't make as much sense to me).

[matt1396]

after looking at GP i'd say advance that ****. The only people who LOOK like they haven't played many games are CHI (....), BUF (broken disk), and DAL. Hell you could maybe include MIN in there as well.

[cbenini87]

Advance it.

[xX Hot Fuss]

Advancing In 5 min. Double advance coming up

[xX Hot Fuss]

Just a reminder, any team who has their starting goalie play over 72 games will NOT be participating in free agency this offseason

[ArGarBarGar]

Dammit, Fuss! You didn't even give me a chance to see how my one simmed game went.

EDIT: Jeez, did Dallas lose a game?

[slightlystewpid420]

And there goes any hope of a season in CBJ.


Kubalik 18 games
Ennis 20 games
Calvert 26 games
Johansen 22 games.

[Jack de la Hoya]

Oh look, the are missing more top-six forwards:

- R. Callahan (14 games remaining)
- R. Nash (9 games remaining)
- B. Richards (10 games)

11 points up in the division with 18 games remaining. Still, things are getting really, really thin up front. Really liking that Mike Richards trade right about now...

Zucarello | M. Richards | Gaborik
C. Kreider | D. Stepan | R. Bordson
D. Winnik | K. Brodziak | C. Clingberg
J. Rask | J. Slater | P. Postma

[Jack de la Hoya]

Given that he's basically already out of the playoffs, are we to assume that it is safe to play CPU?

The final few days of the window will be a bit crazy for me, so I'm trying to knock out some of the games earlier.

[xX Hot Fuss]

Yeah play CPU

[Stockey]

Where is buffalo in the standings.

[xX Hot Fuss]

3rd in the East by virtue of leading the division. 8th in terms of points.

You're up 2 points on MTL, who has three ames in hand. You're up 4 points on OTT, who has played 2 fewer games.

[ahabsfanfromtoronto]

Stockey, I'm pretty sure your Sabres did not lose a single game in the double advance, gained 8 points (maybe lost one). I feel like it's gonna go down to the wire this season re: whether or not I make the playoffs.

[Gary83]

Hm. Detroit, buffalo, Washington, Calgary, NYR x 2. Should be a fun block!

Same, I have Detroit twice(lost both) Chicago twice, Pitt, Boston and one other team. My bottom 6 consists or barkov(57)boll(74)Gabriel(68)jenner(66)chaput(67)a udy-marchessault(69)

Fml considering I really only have 1 legit line and that's Stafford brassard husselius. Second line is Umberger centering Atkinson and shinkaruk. My playoff dreams were crushed in that sim..

[ahabsfanfromtoronto]

good game harold.

cole, purcell, wheeler and moen... all injured

thinking of trying Subban as a 1st line right-winger

[Jack de la Hoya]

Do we need to take an extra day for New Year's? The window should end Dec. 31, and the only day in there that people would really be preoccupied is Dec. 31. If people get their games in tonight and tomorrow, there shouldn't be too much difficulty with advancing Jan. 1 at the latest, right?

Heck, I've only got one game left this window.

[Stockey]

Just witnessed a Lehner diving glove save on a Stockey attempt

[TheFadedLine]

Anyone interested in switching teams. I hate the sharks. Thought I could reshape them but just dread playing my Bluth games.

[xX Hot Fuss]

You could switch to Winnipeg if you like.

[slightlystewpid420]

is online, just message me if you want to play.
