Hey all. Time to start a new thread (passed the century mark on the old one). There should be some good activity today and potential discussion (?) with the real trades made by the real GMs yesterday (aar aar).
Aebischer --> Nabokov
Luongo --> Khabibulin
Considering Gonchar and/or Leetch (for Redden and/or McCabe).

J, I'm a menace. Everytime I pick up someone they turn to utter CRAP. It would be funny if it was happening to someone else... ;)
I'm holding Turco too, since I'm out of trades atm. Perhaps that means you guys should sell... Bookie, I wouldn't worry about money. Go for the best guy, and if thats kippy at 2 mil+ then so be it. Otherwise not only are you not using your money to your advantage, but your letting the competition get another advantage over you. In this case, I'd say Khabi, Belfour or Kippy. Brodeur really has seemed weak the last month or so. That being said, I SUCK lately, so go Brody. ;)

Network glitch cost me the trade deadline today.... Oh well.. Since I had it to three (Turco, Brody and Kippy) and none of them play today, it's only going to cost me a few bucks, if I decide to trade tomorrow.

Dammit! Huet wins again. Should have kept him! I'd like to thank the Raleigh News-Observer for reporting that Weekes and Khabibulin were going to be the starting goalies for tonight's game. Pisses me off when I end up wasting a trade on a goalie that doesn't play. Now just hoping Naslund doesn't lose points tonight.

Nabokov -> Osgood

I'm going to hold Turco today.. If he does well, I'll continue to hold.. If not, I'll get Giguere tomorrow...
Every skater on my team plays two games in the next 3 days, so no trades there...

Trying to make a move, and taking some risks today. Bookie may like one move, but he'll question the other:
Nabokov --> Brodeur
Naslund --> Alfredsson
Rationale:
Nabby and the sharks are COLD. With 3 consecutive negative games from Nabby, albeit with two home games coming up, I felt that they way the Sharks are playing is more important than who/where they are playing. I have to move him. Like a bad stock right now. Brodeur: 3 of the next 4 are very winnable. Even though NJ is not playing their best hockey of late, they are not playing poorly. They are heads and tails better than Chicago, Pitt and the NYR. Brodeur will get all 3 of these, and maybe sit one end of the b2b with Montreal. Devils really need Scott Stevens back though. Belfour was my other choice, with the easy Pitt game tonight, but then the next 3 are tougher.
Naslund and the Canucks are also reeling, before and after the Bertuzzi "incident." I believe that Bertuzzi creates space for Naslund, and without him, Markus's production will continue to wane. Alfredsson had 72 points to Naslund's 75; a wash. Naslund is cold and Alfredsson is quite hot. Ottowa has a 4 in 6, but they are all on the road, but then again, all against western conference teams where the play is a little more wide open. We'll see...

Don't blame for any of those moves, walk....
In fact, If I somehow change my mind and move Turco today, it will be to Broduer... And you are right about Nasland and Bertuzzi being so complementary for each other, so Nasland could suffer a little bit... I'm just not really big on Ottawa because of how they spread it around.. If I were getting an Ottawa winger though, I'd probably get Havlat over the others, I think when he's not hurt, he is more consistent than any of the others, just my opinion..

I hearya, but look at Alfredsson's recent production. He da man lately.
Bertuzzi out for duration of season, no matter how far Vancouver goes (but I get they win maybe 2 playoff games at the most).

I'm holding Naslund for the 2 in 3 regardless. Hoping he pays off big. I see where no Bertuzzi could possibly make it tougher for him, but I'm just crossing my fingers for that 200 pointer that he is capable of getting.
As for Arnott, I don't care that they play a lot of games, I don't care that his line has been on fire, the simple fact is he is Jason Arnott. A good player, but no a player I want on a TSN team. I can't believe I got suckered into getting him anyways, I wasted a trade. I should've went right into Sundin but the schedule didn't match at the time.

I also jettisoned Nabokov for CuJo. I'm hoping for some differentation.
I was thinking about Belfour but Toronto is playing Pit.

I think the intersting move this week will be St Louis in a few days. Who will hold, who will dump him...Is it worth 2 trades? It all depends on how many games I pick up, he's still hot but he's cooled down to his standards the last week.

moved vinny to sundin
arnot to yzerman on a thought that some centre is going to have to get some points with lang and datsyuk gone.
turco to broddy.
Hoping to make a move in the top ten this week!

That Datsyuk injury missed my radar completely - teach me to leave town for a few days. Just an extreme example of how badly I have managed my teams this year. Live and learn.

I went Naslund -> Tkachuk as well. Went into Iginla instead on another team to match 2nd place. Don't worry J, wasn't you! ;) Although you probably know that, since you don't have Iginla...

Risky moving Naslund, this is the first season in a long time he hasnt put up huge numbers vs Edmonton so hes due. And he has done well against Ottawa the last few meetings. I was trying to lookup how he has done previously without Bertuzzi but the last time Bert missed games was his last suspension and I cant find game logs from that season. From watching Bert float most of this season, I personally think its Naslund that makes people think Bertuzzi is so good, so in my opinion he wont suffer at all.

I have Demitra, Sakic and Sundin at Center.... I was originally going to go Demitra -> Vinny.. But now that I look closer.. If I wait until Thursday morning, I'd get two Demitra games to one Vinny game, so I'm thinking of holding.. Not sure what I'll end up doing with this one..
anyone else making moves today?

Belfour -> Luongo, and Stillman -> Heatley.
I don't have much left to play for except a way-too-close division final vs. J, so all my trades are designed to stay ahead of him, WWR be damned. :)

Did Elias skate off any time the Devils started to pressure the Pens? How does his team score SIX goals and not spread the wealth around? Don't they understand what this does to people that play fantasy hockey??

I was also going to trade Pronger, but it seems no matter which d man I go to, I only gain one game.. that seems like a waste at D.. I'd rather take a shot at goalie rotating for an extra game than take it from a D man..
