I don't want your naff goalies. They are not much of an increase for my team

Nice trade Batdad, I've been after Sykora for a while now.

Post by **batdad** » Sat Jan 10, 2009 5:24 pm

But but manimal...they are GREAT passers. Both of them move the puck as well as Turco....

And um Getz---It was Hartnell I wanted (he produces such an all round game)...I was not moving Vinny at all, then decided he is on a naff team, is playing average, not getting PIM's and is getting mostly minuses.

I was hoping that Lecav's name would be enough to lure someone (Namely aussie's owner) into taking him on for Hartnell. But I knew I could get more...so I added in Sykora and "I sometimes do okay. when my fiancee is out of town" LA King Jarret Stoll.

I was quite surprised to see the trade accepted. But think I am happy. Nervous giving up Vinny though.

Hartnell is playing amazing Fantasy Hockey this year.

Flyers - Hot.
Tampa - Not.

Hartnell's points could benefit from Briere's hopeful return on Tuesday (Good news for me

). I was surprised to see that Hartnell was available at all.

Lehtonen + 7 Goals in 52 Minutes of Action = Disgusting + On the Block.

Lehtonen for Budaj, SMith and Quick?????

Post by **getzlaf15** » Sun Jan 11, 2009 7:41 pm

You really interested in Lehtonen, i'd take Smith for him.

For a day i climbed to 12th, hoping to gain something on the leading pack, but i slip back down to 14th.

smell a conspiracy

I'm in trouble now. Kessel just went on the IR with Mono. He'll be out about a month! Ugggh!

This is bad for my fantasy team and even worse for my Bruins!

Post by **batdad** » Tue Jan 13, 2009 3:49 pm

D88--I think Stinson has been really busy with work and such. No conspiracy, just no time. Besides..there is only one trophy to want!

Kessel really has a tough go with odd things to miss games with B72.

Seriously! This kid has had a tough go of things since making it to the NHL. First there was the testicular cancer. He beat that. Then this season he's matured into a legit top line scoring threat (and a fun player to watch!) and then he gets hit with Mono? That's just crazy! Plus... it's Mono! He's not in high school anymore. Who gets Mono?

Post by **batdad** » Tue Jan 13, 2009 5:04 pm

Oh I have to answer that question.

Q: Who gets Mono?

A: A guy who plays in Beantown with one ball.

bruins72 · Post by **bruins72** » Tue Jan 13, 2009 5:45 pm

That's just bad!

Post by **batdad** » Tue Jan 13, 2009 6:02 pm

Yeah I know. Horrible. The one ball man in beantown gets mono. I tell you...the ladies must be real curious about him though. NHL star, one testicle....the circuses around him at the bar..wow!

I can hear some of the B's (who is their funny guy anyway?) at the bar: HEy ladies: LIne up and meat Kes, the one ball man...Kiss the Kes!! Only a limited time offer....FREE!!

I hear Savard is one of the big jokers on the team.

But we're getting off-topic here! If you want to continue to try to find something to bust on the amazing Boston Bruins about, you really should take it to the "The Bettman-Avery thread..All the stupid in hockey goes here" thread or maybe the "Trash Talk / General Discussion Thread".

I think I won that trade with the Turkeys. Stafford for Ranger. A hot forward for a d-man on a naff team. Only time will tell, though

rottamies · Post by **rottamies** » Thu Jan 15, 2009 7:25 am

I'm thinking you might have won it too, but i needed the ice time and it's always fun to do something risky.

Also, i'm going way over the maximum of games played for forwards, so that too.

But hopefully you'll get some good stats out of Stafford and he'll stay healthy.

I'm liking my trade thankyou for Lecavalier! Also liking my pick up of Ottawa's young netminder Elliott! Two games two wins and nice stats

Post by **batdad** » Thu Jan 15, 2009 4:00 pm

YOu can like your trade all you want. Right now...it is a dead heat in terms of stats. Cept I have PIM's and you don't.

In the short term Elliott is a good pick up. I thought about it long before you did it, and decided he would not make a difference for very long so did not bother.

Come on NAbby...time to get hurt again.

Post by **getzlaf15** » Thu Jan 15, 2009 5:55 pm

I probably would have taken the Ranger trade offered to me too.

I just dont check my trades enough as im struggling without the internet in my room and im having to use the hard to get on family computer.

Up 2 places in the last 2 days, need to keep it up and hunt down the top 10, but times running out!

bruins72 · Post by **bruins72** » Thu Jan 15, 2009 5:58 pm

I've been floating around #9 or #10 for weeks now. I'd love to see a couple of my guys get hot. I'm just not seeing anything that will really help me when it comes to trades.

Post by **batdad** » Thu Jan 15, 2009 6:19 pm

You ain't looking hard enough B72. Check out Ben Eager...WAhoo!!! 0-1-1 plus 1 8 PIMs last night. Dude is on fire. And he still managed 10 minutes of ice time, even though in the box.

Benny is playing real well. Keith is hurt though. Whaaaaaa.....

I wish Budaj was hurt. Save me the trouble of deciding whether or not to play the little turd.

My goalie stats go up when I don't play a goalie and down when I do. I kill myself laughing at that.

Post by **batdad** » Fri Jan 16, 2009 5:58 pm

Hey B72...Did you have Budaj playing for you last night too?

bruins72 · Post by **bruins72** » Fri Jan 16, 2009 6:31 pm

Might as well have!
