| I'm in first in one pool & third in another. I find that trading often helps. The pool that I'm winnin we have unlimted trades, we just have to pay for them. The other pool we can only make 2 trades a month so inguries are killing me. |

| I'm in third and probably the only reason I'm not in first is because of injuries... namely Gaborik. |

- I won one in November (only 2 people) haha!
- I'm in first in another (4 people)
- I'm in 5th in one (9 people)
- 16th in another (31 people)
And I'm kicking Harper's butt in an Iginla vs. Naslund side bet.
Go Flames! |

| I'm in the middle of the pack. I historically pick too many "long shot" picks, so generally, I win huge if every hits, or I'm middle of the road. |

| I'm third, but over the last 5 days I've gained about 35 on the leader, so things are looking good. I'm loving my San Jose and Tampa guys right now (Marleau, Thorton, Lecavlier (sp?), St. Louis, Prospal) |

| Next to last in one, and sixth in the other. I picked too many underdogs I guess, Dustin Penner, Jordan Stall, and where the hell is Pavel Datsyuk this year??? Oh well. Good thing I stuck with a few go to guys as well. |

Would Carle be better than Rozival? or does it really matter. |

| Well they have the same amount of points, but Carle has played 5 games less. I would take Carle before Rozsival anyday but it's your call. |

Notice how EVERYBODY is in first place...?
Good thing we have the Halfway pool here so we can sort things out a bit...although with the settings we had to use (all teams can have the same player) it may not settle too much.
PS - IHC, I'll allow you to join after the deadline...I'm excited to see how you're going to do without Malkin or Crosby, and a team full of Maple Laffs
Go Sens
Crosby is God
Tucker is a douche |

| Dude, as much as I would like to see that too, if you let one past the rules you let them all, or you leave it as is. Only fair. |

Ya im right in the middle but in my pool everyone has practically picked the same people and the people who are in first have only about 3 different people than me so ya i dont, I have alot of potential players and goalies including giguere and miller that can be the best they can this year with the amount of wins their teams have so I may be ready to pull ahead for a lead
P.S that means u oil country |
