Week 3 – Oct 22
Cut-down day is coming! Sunday night Oct. 29 Mid-night. You have to be down to 31 players or Rolphy will turn off the heat in your house. Oh yeah, he’s that powerful.
You will need to have decided on your 31 players:
- 26 active players (you can still wait until before the first game Monday to put in your weekly lineup)
- 5 prospects/farm (23 years of age or younger – any position)
THE WEEK THAT WAS
- Erty piled on another 3-0 with his high week of 44.25pts
- Also going 3-0: Fulty, Derko, eZ, Haukster, Vinny
- Six teams went 0-3 as things are starting to spread out a bit.
- Derko is a perfect 9-0 and has the most player points
- Vinny is making a push to leave the Vinny Table in splinters as he’s 8-1 – only loss coming to Derko
- Ren & Stimpy had the stinky week with 22.25 but get the pick up for this week
PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Great week for anyone who had TBay players. Erty had 8’s from his Ruskies, Kucherov & Vasilevsky, but Vinny’s Stamkos hit 11 points for the nod.
SHRAPNEL
Bruins teammates Charlie McAvoy and David Backes held a friendly wager this past weekend when their college teams, Boston U & Minnesota State squared off for a two-game series.
Backes offered to pay for the rook’s dinner on the road if BU won both games, while McAvoy agreed to come to Backes house and pick up his dog’s poop if Minnesota State swept. It seemed like a pretty good proposition for McAvoy, as BU came into the series ranked second in the country while Minnesota State was unranked.
Well tough luck, Rook, Minny pounded the Terriers, winning 6-3 and 3-0.
A bet is a bet, so McAvoy had to make the house call with a scooper in hand.
Everybody is jumping on the Don Cherry tribute jerseys. Friday night was Brandon Wheat Kings turn.

UNTIL NEXT WEEK…
Two great Canadians left us this week:
One you might not know so much about. John Dunsworth played Mr. Lahey on the Trailer Park Boys. An actor with a diverse resume, he never drank but played the whiskey drinking trailer park supervisor for many seasons.
No other Canadian musician understood this country’s deep love of hockey as did Gordon Downie. The life-long Bruins fan was a goalie who backstopped the Amherstville Bantam Rep to an Ontario Provincial Championship back in the day. Here is a tribute to Gord, his love of Canada, and his love of the game. Take some time, raise a glass and enjoy…
A tribute to his father who used to stand at “The Lonely End” and watch Gord in net.
The video for “The Darkest One” encompasses so much Canadiana:
- Trailer Park Boys jacking a motor
- old dollar bills
- Don Cherry backhanding Ricky
- old school Canadian stubbies
- Bubbles with the cat
- Bubbles driving
- and Downie raising a glass at 2:36. Cheers!
Week 14 – 2nd Half of the Season
RAMBLINGS
- Fulty expands his lead over Cordy to 3 points
- Rolphy holds onto the last money spot; Erty’s in the “break-even” spot
- Haukster had a big & consistent week (43 pts) with no zeros and no players getting more than 5 points
- Stifler had low week (19) and gets the week 14 pick-up
- Orv & Stifler are the first teams finished with bye weeks
OTHER NEWS
The “charmed life” that Team Cordy was leading appears to be breaking apart as his team has had a rough go lately. The team is in turmoil. It was never more evident than in this exchange between GM Cordy and star sniper Phil Kessel. (the exchange has been slightly edited by the Team Cordy Spin Doctor Filter)
Feschuk Cordy: It’s been suggested to that you’re a difficult guy to coach is there any truth to that?
Kessel: I don’t think so but that’s a weird question for you to ask on a day like that, you know your coach got fired
Cordy: Well you’re the best player on the team and if the coach just got fired you’re losing to teams like T-man…
Kessel: You think it’s my fault? Is that what you’re saying?
Cordy: I’m saying that people are saying you’re difficult to coach a douchebag
Kessel: Is that what you’re saying?
Cordy: I’m asking a question, are you difficult to coach? a douchebag?
Kessel: I don’t think so. I play eh. This guy is such an idiot here. He’s always been like that here.
Cordy: Ya? Well you’re a (inaudible)
Suffice it to say there are deep problems on Team Cordy; problems that will need to be rectified soon if they hope to win the Trophy.

He’s lining up on the blueline due to the rash of injuries to the Jets D, and many sites now have Big Daddy Buff listed as a d-man.

PLAYER OF THE WEEK
It could have gone to either Varlamov CO (Erty) or Backes ST (eZ) who each had 8 points, but it goes to Backes’ team mate who lost his head
