Are there any Canadians that would be willing to help me figure out what to do to get one down to MN?

Vic is catching up to me. Only 10 points between us now.

Man.... it's hard for the Kings to get a win on the road! Unfortunately, Calgary also lost again.

Got six points last night... from my reserves!

Updated spreadsheet after last night.

We're starting to fall into pretty evenly-spaced ranks. Slurm is 10 ahead of Vic, who's 10 ahead of me, who's just over 10 ahead of Han & Kreegs. Of course, we saw last week just how quickly that can change, with Vic going from 10 behind me to 10 ahead in the span of only a couple games!

Wow I have 5 top 30 scorers on my active roster and 1 in my inactive.

Kong has 6 top 30's in his active and 0 in inactive

Kreeg has 4 top 30's in his active and 1 in inactive

Vic has 2 top 30's in his active and 0 in inactive

Han has 2 top 30's in his active and 0 in inactive

That's 21 players in the top 30

These are the players we missed. I honestly feel like an idiot for forgetting Hornqvist would play with Crosby.

6th Patric Hornqvist 24p
8th Mark Giordano 24p
10th Vladimir Tarasenko 23p
12th Filip Forsberg 22p
14th Nick Foligno 21p
15th Jaden Schwartz 21p
16th Tyler Johnson 21p
21st Jori Lehtera 20p
23rd Brock Nelson 19th
26th Tyler Bozak 19th
27th Brent Burns 19th

Here's some more interesting analytics-nerd stats:

Based on current points & games played, Slurmee is projected to place first with 707 points. I'm projected to place second with 691 points. Kreegs is projected to place a close third with 688 points. Those positions match the current actual rankings if Vic were to disappear. So, what happens to Vic?! I'm not entirely sure.

Pace is based on current points per game * (games played + games remaining) (i.e. 82 minus current games missed), which does assume players won't miss anymore games. Even though Kreegs is currently in 4th, it largely because of injuries, and the injured players he has also happen to have pretty good PPG in the games they have played. The stats would project those players to catch up to some of the reliable but lower-production guys on Vic's list.

I'm considering whipping up individual tabs/sheets/pages for each of our teams with more detailed data than what I show on the main list on the first page. I'll noodle around with that if I get some free time at work this week.

You call that hard? My team got destroyed!

OK guys, this is awesome! I've now added full team summaries for each pool participant, so you all have your own tabs on the sheet now.

This shows your total goals, assists, points, games missed, games played, points per game, pace, and draft order, broken up by active roster and reserve roster. This will give you a bit of an easier and more comprehensive look at your data, so you can compare with each other, lament your injuries, maybe inform your call-ups, etc.

I've also included a little at-a-glance look at your rank, so it shows where you're currently positioned, the next person ahead of you, and the next person behind you, so you know who your direct competition is.

All this data can be found on the main page, too, but I wanted to spruce these up a bit because it was a fun coding exercise. :)

Check it out! Check out the Kreegs tab or the Slurmee tab, for example! Neat!

Kreegs, just got the email that they're in. They're $150(!), let me know how/if/when you want to do this. Did you confirm they won't sell to no -Canadians?

Well Dan Boyle is on a mini point streak... with two goals in two games.
