Name your pools biggest disppointment thus far in the season.
Mine for sure so far Andy McDonald, even though he lost Selanne he has other talented players around him his point total shouldn't be that low, but my hopes still remain for the rest of the season that he will get better totals eventually.

I'd have to say jagr, he's picked up some amazing line mates and hasn't done anything near spectacular or even former jagr-ish, yet.

Maxim Afinogenov
Jaromir Jagr

Not so much Jagr as Afinogenov

Devils fan since the 85-86 season

Jagr and Marleau for me. I have both, both dissapointing me a bit thus far. I do expect Jagr to pick it up a bit though in the second half.

Semin, 4th round thought I stole him. Lots of minor injuries have not allowed him to play. But performance wise Marleau, 6th round, 12 points nuh uh.

Semin has been hurt, he had a sprained ankle. When it was healed, the first game back he sprained it again.

Now he is playing again, he will take a few weeks to get back to his form.

He has no choice I have him in my pool, and I refused to give up on him, because he can score when he is healthy...

I don't necessarily agree with everything I say.

Ellis or Mason?

Not his fault, but Patrice Bergeron. My pool was weighted towards goaltending wins and shutouts. One of the guys picked M.A. Fleury and Peter Budaj 1-2! He's been dissappointed.

The Oil WILL make the playoffs.

I've got both Macdonald and Afinogenov - but not for long - doing a mid-season draft next week (get to drop two players and pick up two as yet undrafted), and I'm dropping both those bums!

Yeah, I've got Carle too. I also have Radulov and thought he would be doing much better.

In my pool we have enforcers, so for each penalty minute they get a point.They also get points for the normal stuff too. So my cousin took his enforcer in the 2nd round. He chose Josh Gratton, who was second in the league in PIM last year. This year he was injured, then he came back, got into a fight, then got sent down. He only has 5 points.

Ha same scenario with me I chose Gratton. I was so happy when he came back and got into a fight but then he got sent down.

Theres a few busts for me, starting with Jagr of course, he was my first pick, but never again will I start with that lazy fool,then theres Matt Carle and Ryan Whitney that are lacking performance, Eric Stall and Alex Tanguay could be slightly better. And finally Ryan Miller and Ray Emery have been less productive then previous years but they recently seem to want to win soooo I expect better things from these two as the season goes along,

AS my number nine forward Ryder has been a solid bust for me. I chopped Plekanac before the season started because I had to make a choice, not wanting two Habs on a Carbonneau coached team. We all know how this one has turned out? My other gaff in the early going was Ray Emery. Who was to know how that scenario would turn out. They kept insisting that Emery would be ready for the opening of the season. They kept saying it until he didn't start the season. Then the guy losses his first string job to Gerber when he is ready to start. He is playing regularly again now but I thought he would be money in the bank at the outset.

In last years' pool, we had enforcers, and one poor sap picked Brendan Morrow the day before the Star's named him captain! Whoops!

The Oil WILL make the playoffs.
