Probably pickuphockey, it seems to be the easiest and one of the most popular.

[CanadaPure]

Do you know who else is in?

Pain said he would.

[DetroitSkills]

im down, never done an nhl one so it could be cool

[runSA]

Ill do it as long as this isnt too time consuming because I want to spend more time on school this year

[CanadaPure]

It wouldn't be overly time consuming aside from making your picks. After that I'd just let it run, and we'd see who was where at the end of the season.

I'll sort out the details after I finish my two projects for university, and then I'll send y'all a PM.

[CanadaPure]

How's your pre-season going bigray?

[DetroitSkills]

So glad hockeys back tbh

[Mr. Chambers]

Penguins are obviously my team.

I think we won't be as strong of a regular season team, but I do like the additions we got during the off season. It'll help in the playoffs.
Our defense will struggle this year. We lost a lot of grit and pure defense and from the looks of it building a more offensive defense which always burns us.

I'm also a big sharks fan, and because they are demoting and making their stars feel like shit I think they'll have a sub par season and miss the playoffs (the west ain't no joke...subpar seasons get you a summer of lazy boys and early dinners)

Rangers looking good this pre season

[Mr. Chambers]

Pittsburgh will be top 3 but that's almost by default.

It'll be boston pittsburgh then Tampa. Everyone else will fight for the bottom dwelling....Columbus might surprise also

The Blue Jackets have certainly turned it around since they got rid of Nash and had a change of management.

[runSA]

Metro will probably have Pittsburgh and NYR at the #1 and #2 spots who has what seed will be dependent on alot and Columbus will also be very competitive

[DetroitSkills]

i dont think columbus will have the same kind of season

[Mr. Chambers]

let me ask you a question? Pit is in need for a scoring winger for Crosby and they didnt address it.....Is Dupuis gonna stay healthy? Oh and the departure of james Neil hurt....thats scoring winger i was saying.

I think it'll be kuniz-crosby-dupuis...
And I think they have the grit to be competitive.

My question is who is with malkin...

It'll prolly be hornqvist-malkin-Bennett? (If he can stay healthy). I think they will move that kapenen(sp) up to his wing once he develops mid season but they could have 3 solid lines and that will be the first time since they lost stal. Sutter impressed me last post season so if you could give him one decent winger I think we'll be a danger. It's too early to call about the defense. And as long as fluery stays in form we should be able challenge boston for the top spot

[Mr. Chambers]

^true. It does depend on the health (which we continuously have the most injuries to key players).

I hope they stay healthy becuz I could see them being one of the top 3 offenses in the league
