byz Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 Office pool, pure points, pick a player from a box and hope he outscores everyone else kind of deal. I think everyone's done one of these before, so let's do it. Scoring: Players - 1 Point for a Goal, 1 Point for an Assist Goalies - 2 Points for a Win, 1 Point for a Shutout List A (Pick 2 Players) List B (Pick 4 Players) List C (Pick 4 Players) List D (Pick 2 Players) List E (Pick 3 Goalies) List F (Pick 15 skaters from remaining pool excluding players from other lists) Alex Ovechkin Anze Kopitar Brent Burns Auston Matthews Ben Bishop Connor McDavid Erik Karlsson Drew Doughty Bo Horvat Braden Holtby Jamie Benn Evgeni Malkin Dustin Byfuglien Leon Draisaitl Carey Price John Tavares Joe Pavelski John Klingberg Patrik Laine Corey Crawford Patrick Kane Joe Thornton Kris Letang Ryan Nugent-Hopkins Henrik Lundqvist Sidney Crosby Johnny Gaudreau Mark Giordano Sam Bennett Jonathan Quick Nicklas Backstrom Oliver Ekman-Larsson Alexander Radulov Martin Jones Ryan Getzlaf P.K.

byz Posted October 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 You guys think Jones is going to win more than Quick this year? Also Salros, you'd pick Laine over one of the Oilers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salros Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 I think Laine has something to prove. He's better than Matthews. And Winnipeg is going to give Laine the ice time he needs to find his scoring touch in the NHL. As a Quick owner, I'm very worried about this season. I think his best seasons are behind him.

byz Posted October 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 You guys all like Kane better than Crosby, eh? Going to do my best to take the average answer here and submit that. Our minds combined make us unbeatable, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 When we're talking straight points, I feel like GP becomes a big factor... that limits Crosby's value, especially against the younger McDavid and Kane. They'll shut crosby down at a sneeze, especially if the Pens are comfortably in a playoff position down the stretch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ydomat Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 I'm a blues fan. i hate Kane. but its hard not to bring him up in a Points only discussion. i mean, hes not going past the red (center) line so hes gonna have way more opportunites than others to score.

fukufuji Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 (edited) Crosby is the wild card if healthy he is the clear number 1 but he is already injured. I took him anyway. I think you need to have your top 2 picks be over point per game players to me that is Crosby, Kane, and maybe McDavid. But you have injury concerns with all 3 Injuries will decide the outcome so maybe just pick players that are not injury prone.

I hate being right sometimes. I should have traded Quick. I've been having a number premonitions that Quick was going down this season. I just didn't think it would happen so soon. I'm glad you didn't take him. As to Laine, I bet he's saying this morning- Man, Matthews is a tough act to follow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

byz Posted October 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2016 Just a small update - Team Capwise is two points behind #1. Bennett's recent hot streak helps a lot. Good job so far everyone http://i.imgur.com/xjCGUJN.png - James, when is Letang gonna start lighting it up?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
