AS for best line in HOCKEY ... I didn't realize Dallas had put ALL it's EGGS in one basket and made them a line, but I guess

 

 

 

Benn / Seguin / Spezza  has been even hotter than THAT 70's LINE for LA ? who knew ... oh yeah ME saying watch out for Dallas before the season started ;)

 

 

Oh you weren't the only one. Anyone following hockey alot knew Dallas would be quite better this year ;)

 

Not really a full line but....Perry and Getzlaf are doing some damage lol oh and that Sedin+Sedin+Vrbata as well!

meh...its way too early for true assessment on line combos.

 

heck, the leafs just tried a new line combination with Kessel and Kadri, won a game (against the Sabres) and they are already talking Stanley Cup ffs. Usually by the first week of December all your lines should be firing on all cylinders, but not 10 games in...

 

btw...this is for all you Habs fans...

2. John Gibson G (ANA) 38/38 100,0

So i decited to go servers today and i will try play as much et in this weekend than possible, so i will update my Fantasty team scores in Monday. I haven't make any trades, even that i have thinking to trade Harding and take Kuemper for change, i didn't like how Harding was injured (fighting with his team mates and kick in the wall and broke his foot), and if knew that before season start i probably have taken some other in my goal. Kuemper played well and i start like him a lot, but at the moment he still make mistakes in goal, mean that first he can make amazing save and after that allow easy goal. Look like Bäckström has suffered too many injuries in his career and thats start affect his game a lot, he is not same Bäckström than 2 - 3 year ago, what is sad because he is one time Vezina finalist. But i will be loyal to him and keep him in my team.

 

 

Okey my all time idol Niittymäki was goalie in his career and thats why i love watch/follow how goalies play, its my hobbie to be updated how goalies play, i mean they stats, i not have time to watch every hightligh or game. When i watch Wild games or any hockey games i always follow extremely closely how goalies play. Here is list of goalies who get best start in season (in my view).

 

 

Earlie Vezina favorites

 

1. Jonathan Quick (LAK) © 8G 5W 1L 2OT 2SO 1,78GA and .950 SV% I saw one of his game when he play agaist Wild, made huge saves and was MVP of game. Is this season when best playoff goalies from past 3-4 season win Vezina

 

2. Frederik Andersen (ANA) 7G 6W 1L 0OT 1SO 1.69GA and .940SV% most though that Gibson who has sayed to been most talent USA goalie then Hextall take number one goalie spot in ANA but Andersen have been amazing, played great game agaist Wild too so i had seen one of his games. Even that he played well last season his start is surprise for most, example i give only 6 for goalies of Anaheim.

 

3. Pekka Rinne (NSH) 8G 6W 1L 1OT 1SO 1.71GA and .936SV% Rinne is back, last year was hardest of Rinne career when he was out most of season, and its very hard to come back after major injuries, he was MVP of last year World Championship tournament and is earlie season Hart Trophy candidate.

 

4. Darcy Kuemper (MIN) 7G 5W 2L 0OT 3SO 1.71GA and .927SV% Kuemper start was best in Wild history and best since 1980's he take shutout in first two home game and first two game in start of season. He allowed 8 goal in last two start, but lost only one of those two games. You can see in his game that he is still young, but he has win two or three games for wild a lone. He didn't play any games in pre-season, because he was without contract when Harding was supposed to be our starter goalie.

 

5. Jonas Hiller (CGY) 6G  3W 2L 1OT 1SO 1.63GA and .948SA% Both Calgary goalies has played great season opened games, Rämö is my favorite goalie at the moment, but Hiller stats are amazing, Both Calgary goalies have been big reason of Calgary great season start and Calgary is in playoffs at the moment.

 

Just out from top 5. Carey Price (MTL) and Roberto Luongo (FLA)

 

 

Goalies who started season under expectations

 

.

 

1. Mike Smith (ARI) 7G 2W 5L 0OT 0SO 3.96GA .866SA% he have been worst goalie of the season at the moment and look like Arizona is looking for new goalie, Smith have only one good season in his career and that was first season in Phoenix.

 

2. Cam Ward (CAR) 4G 0W 3L 1OT 0SO 3.95GA .840SA I think new adress can save his career, but last couple season have been awful from him, he is not anymore number one goalie in his team, you can see why he is not same Ward than couple season ago, and reason is injuries, those affect a lot, Ofcourse Ward is playing behind worst NHL team at the moment and that is one reason why he have so poor stats.

 

3. Steve Mason (PHI) 5G 0W 3L 1OT 0SO 3.83GA .878SA% Lose his every start of season, i haven't see any of his games, but when compare his stats to Emery stats they are so much worse than Emery stats. Probably starts next game, but look like Philadelphia need new number one goalie, Mason has only two good season behind, last season and his career first season, and thats why i think he cant be long term number one goalie in this league, even that he is young and i probably be wrong.

 

4. Tuukka Rask (BOS) 8G 4W 4L 0OT 0SO  2.81GA .899SA% Boston has give one or two extra game for Svedberg because he has been played better than Rask. Whole Boston team has got poor start, so i dont mean that Tuukka has got worst start of season from all goalies. No way, but expectations was so much highter because he is current Vezina winner. I still think that he can be Vezina finalist after season. So his in the list different reasons than first three. I saw one of his games and he played well agaist Wild.

 

5. Henrik Lundqvist (NYR) 8G 5W 3L 0OT 1SO 3.25GA .891SA% Its Lundqvist second poor start in season row, last season Talbot got couple extra starts when Lundqvist struggle with his game, he havent been his best in this season start either, saw one of his games agaist Wild. As Rask can Lundqvist also be Vezina finalist after season so he is in the list because he has started season under expectations

Okey finally i find time update my fantasy team points.

 

Here come couple things what you should know

 

How to calculate goal agaist in team stats, Goal Agaist: first watch how many games wild played, in example They played 17 game, then calculate two goalies allowed goals, in thise case 30, then divide that to games what goalies played In this case 13 and you get 2,31, then multiply that for total games 17 (wild played 17 game at the moment) so thats mean 30 GA / 13 GP x 17 Team GP = 39 Goal agaist

 

Goals you get when you add all goals together. That i will not get extra goals, i check that my players not played extra games, so i count up all played games, and in this case its 312 played games total, then i divide that for 17 (games what wild played and what should be max game of player) and if outcome is under 17 i can accept all goals. In this case 312 / 17 = 18,35 what is close enough. Ofcourse i can use this 18,35 in goal agaist and not 17, to get more realistic outcome, and in long run i must do that if its too big or too small, but now when its only one game no needed.

 

In SS you can see out come, i add my roster changes too, i make couple changes when Ruutu is now fourth line, and Jokinen in second line, and Zucker take Gange spot and Carter take Haula spot, Carter take place in my hard very fast and earned his spot in lineups. He is my newest favorite player. He have been played very well, Zucker Take Gagne spot because Zucker was my extra player in start of season and he has played a lot better hockey than Gagne. In goalies, i finally decided trade Bäckström when he allow those easy goals in every game. Arrrgh, he was my number one two season and last season he drop to third goalie spot and now outside of rosters.

 

 

If i take new player in my team his stats from old team not come with him. So stats starting from zero.

 

Pic 1 show my lineups

Pic 2 stats

Pic 3 team stats and former player stats and extra players and they stats in they own team
