So I have been in LSL for 10 years now. 7 out of the 9 years we've actually had fantasy playoffs I have qualified. The year we didn't have the fantasy playoffs I would have had the 3 seed. In all that time, I have won one (1) first round matchup and never finished higher than 3rd.

making a 2nd week charge, really can't help but feel like if matthews and rantanen didn't miss the first week I'd be up, even if precariously so

e:
- rantanen + matthews fw per game is 11.75 with 7 games missed between them, currently down 36
- rantanen/matthews/foglino sog per game is 9.5 with11 games missed between them, I'm down 8
- down 2 goals
- +/- is 0 to 1

i feel like it's reasonable to think i should have like 25-30 more fw, like 20-30 more sog, and hopefully at least 2 or 3 more goals. +/- is bullshit voodoo and I've consistently scored like 25-30 es points per week with players mostly on playoff teams and am routinely a minus for the week so who even cares +/- is stupid

potential 4 cat swing. down 5-8 right now, it could easily be 9-4. ifi can get a big 2nd week and i can at least hold serve in wins, i think i still have a shot. really depends on how playoff teams deal with rest this week. i have a feeling loving rantanen isn't gonna play a drat game ROS

""""illness""""

losing kuraly likely means that fw is out of reach also which sucks

alright well with kreider and matthews officially in playoff cryostasis I'm calling it. well that sucks. not sure what else i could have done to win. i built the best team and they tore up the league until the last two weeks of the season :negative:

That's a bit premature, no? Shots are entirely up in the air (I'm pretty sure you're going to end up taking it), and like you said, you have a more than strong enough lineup even without those two to make up the goal deficit.

if we end up tied, I don't have the tiebreaker, so i need to win outright, which means i need to pace in goals by 4 with 2 days left and both my best two goal scorers out. I'm not confident



e: i don't know if it's better or worse to know that if i had won round 1 in lsl and then had somehow managed to beat t-bone in the semis, I'd only be down like 8-6 in the final with like 4 categories still in play

I really didn't foresee so many top players getting nights off the last 10 days of the season. I thought the NFL sorta stood alone from a "end fantasy leagues before the last week~ of the season".

I hadn't played fantasy for many years - is this year an aberration due to so many teams clinching early and/or a more compressed schedule than usual? Or is it a new norm that should be factored into future seasons?


Anyhoo, good luck tonight to T-Bone, & everyone still alive in the HHL & LSL. Lord Have Mercer has chipped away and narrowed a bunch of categories, so here's hoping I don't repeat last night's subpar performance. :ohdear:

I feel like the writing's been on the wall for a while, but Landeskog getting knee surgery feels like there's a pretty hard ceiling on my season.

Look at this bet-hedging coward.
