That 70's line helped me gain an 8 point boost to sit at least 25 points. Mike Richards and Justin Williams got their first point(s); the former is on the bench (on my reserves).

The pool sheet has been updated after last night's games. Han broke a tie with me to move into sole possession of 3rd place, while Kit's Kings quickly brought him up into contention.

HOLY FUCK Benn had a 4 point night WOOT WOOT

No wonder Vic shot up his team was playing the oilers without RNH and Eberle. Oilers are really embracing the tank for mcdavids.

I have Sharp, Zetterberg, and Hall in action tonight. Hopefully the right people score all the points (i.e. not Toews, Kane, or Bergeron) so I can get a little catch-up in.

Gagner has got to get on the board tonight in some form. If he does, that would only leave Neal with zero (Not including injured players or reserves).

Slurm now has all priority (non-reserve) players with points (34 overall, I believe, after the primetime game), thanks to Eberle's 2 assists. Kong gets a three point game from Hall to bring him into the top 3 (30 points).

As for myself, despite a 7-4 Coyotes win; Gagner (the former Oiler) had nothing to show for.

Han was actually the second member to get a point from all of his active players (Krejci picked up a point), followed closely by Slurm with Eberle. Neal & Gagner (Kit) and Landeskog (Kong) are now the only active, non-injured players who don't have any points. Well, not including Clay's team, which he didn't pick, so I cut him so slack. :) Kreegs is only missing points out of the injured Datsyuk.

Slurm's ahead of me and Kreegs by 4 points, but there are a lot of players in action again tonight.

I have Pavelski and Okposo going head to head, Spezza and Malkin going head to head, Landeskog with an opportunity to redeem himself against the Senators, and Statsny looking to stay hot and turn the tide against Kit's '70s line.

I hope Varly Elliott (or whoever) coughs up against That '70s Line (and maybe the Kings goalie on Statsny too; make it a blockbuster night!) :P

In action for me tonight!

The Priorities

* Los Angeles vs St. Louis (Kings: That '70s Line [Carter/Toffoli/Pearson], Williams)
* Pittsburgh vs. Dallas (Penguins: Letang)
-----
INJURED

* New York Rangers vs. Carolina (Rangers: Dan Boyle --- broken hand)


From the Bench

* Washington vs. New Jersey (Devils: Hendriques [1G, 2A - 3PT on the reservation bench])
* New York Islanders vs. San Jose (Sharks: Hertl [1G, 0A - 1PT on the reservation bench])
* Los Angeles vs St. Louis (Kings: Mike Richards [0G, 1A - 1PT on the reservation bench])

Man... the goalies stole the show in Los Angeles, especially Quick! Unfortunately, absolutely nothing to show for in that game from the shooters. The game after regulation and overtime was deadlocked 0-0. Shots were 43-18 for the Blues.

LA wins the game in a 1-0 shootout, so I only score from that Pittsburgh game (I believe; in the priorities), which really hurt me much more, than in Kong Wen's case.

Happy to see the Kings win though... at least that's the one good side!

Tavares is ripping it up for me.

Also Colorado lost Varly for at least a week to a groin (on IR) then 2 minutes into the Sens game Reto Berra (Our backup) gets injured. Leaving Pickard our 22 yr old prospect who just traveled all day to be a backup to start and try hold the team. He let in 4 but by god did he make some great saves.
