Has there been any recent news on Pavel Datsyuk's injury status? I see a few team entries have him, and he might not be fit to play.

I saw that too. As much as I would love to have Datsyuk in my picks, I opted to swap him out for Kopitar.


I'll still keep St. Louis in my selections.

 

[Red_Man]

Seems like Datsyuk is expected to play at some point in the tournament, they're just not sure when.

 

[Silexx]

Team Silexx

Toews
Zetterberg
Kessel
Getzlaf
Perry

Yeah, that's right, I'm leaving Crosby out. Know why? Because what people forget is that while he did score that big goal, the rest of the tourney he did absolutely fuck all.

He was still one of the points leaders.

So I have entered the teams to make it easier on myself tomorrow night at the deadline.

I will go through the team entries at the deadline tomorrow night to make any necessary changes to teams. I hope this site is good enough for the stat-keeping. I will update the OP once the teams are set in stone.

Woot thanks for doing this man

 

[Red_Man]

Datsyuk practiced with the team today, and is reportedly good to go for those of you that picked him and are wondering about his status.

Oh cool. I was going to pick someone else to be safe.

Thanks for doing this, Jayhawk!

I did the opposite :lol lets see if it pays off.

 

[Jayhawk]

Since I'll be editing the OP with point updates through the tournament and wanted to show my lineup isn't changing via the post edit date... my final lineup will be in this post. Made a couple swaps to my team below. I will finalize the teams in a bit after I eat and game for a bit/

Team Jayhawk
Sidney Crosby
Evgeni Malkin
Phil Kessel
Patrick Kane
Jonathan Toews
Nicklas Backstrom

Erik Karlsson
Ryan Suter
Alex Pietrangelo

 

[Jayhawk]

Double posting because I want to preserve the post time and lack of edit time in my team entry above.

The team entries have been finalized. I double-checked the team entries on the onlinepools.com site, made the lineup changes people mentioned, and added the two new team entries that made it before the deadline. Good luck, everyone that entered!

I will try to update the OP with the top 10 teams in the standings on an everyday basis during the tournament. The link in the OP will have the full standings of the 34 teams.

 

[Dr.Acula]

Pretty good turnout, 34 teams!

 

[Smiley90]

I take it we don't get to replace injured players? Hope Z is gonna come back...

 

[Jayhawk]

I take it we don't get to replace injured players? Hope Z is gonna come back...

Yeah, no injury replacements for such a short tournament.

 

[kingkitty]

Team Ham-Ham is starting out strong.

 

[Samyy]

The Phighting Phils off to a great start!
Thank you based Kessel!

 

[Var]

Weber is so good.

 

[JoseJX]

Racked up another two points tonight, the kid is legit. They're increasing his minutes on the PP, he could finish his rookie season with 40 points.

With 4 points so far, picking Maatta is turning out MUCH better than my Crosby + Kunitz = 1 point combined disaster.

 

[FLEABttn]

I think including "I make bad decisions" in my team name was apt.

 

[lamaroo]

All the Chicago players are letting me down so far.

 

[MutFox]

I'm not last!

 

[calder]

Haha just remembered how I was going to pick Weber but went with PK instead after imagining him working his way onto the first PP. Good times. :/

Edit: oh yeah and convincing myself Pavelski would end up #1 center on an explosive line with Kane. Uh, may still happen right?

 

[lamaroo]

Anyone who picked Carter should be disqualified.

 

[Juicy Bob]

Good thing Datsyuk turned up for me today, or I'd be scraping the bottom of the barrel.

 

[Buba Big Guns]

Thank the lawd Hossa did work before getting eliminated. Was really regretting that pick. And Petro needs to get going, it was between him and Doughty and I obviously chose the wrong guy. Would`ve had a lot of room between second place if I took him. Oh well, first for now but I don`t think it`ll last for long.

 

[lamaroo]

All these god damn Chicago players are killing me!

 

[equippedwithtowel]

All these god damn Chicago players are killing me!

I know that feel.

 

[Juicy Bob]

Selanne is almost single-handedly saving my team.

 

[Zod the Bear]

I wish I'd put Selanne in over Toews now, but I'd figured throwing Timonen in out of favoritism had already given me a cap on Fins.

Really happy the team's doing well. They're my number 2 this year after the US.

 

[Jayhawk]

Ryan Suter finally breaks out and helps my team catch up! 2 points back.

 

[MutFox]

Tavares out for the season...

 

[Dr.Acula]

*looks at pool*

Hey, it is all PK's fault!

 

[Zod the Bear]

At least I've got 5 players involved on Sunday! Hopefully they'll keep it up.

 

[Var]

At least I've got 5 players involved on Sunday! Hopefully they'll keep it up.

I need a huge win by Canada to have a shot.

 

[JoseJX]

I'd just like to say that with 5 points, Maatta was definitely a good pick. The kid's got a great future ahead of him! More points than Crosby and Kunitz combined.

Congrats Var and Zod the Bear! This was fun, thanks Jayhawk for setting this up!

 

[Zod the Bear]

So Var and I tie with 38? FlyersGAF wins!

Thanks for putting this together, Jayhawk.

 

[lamaroo]

Sharp and Keith, smh.

 

[Samyy]

Meh tied for 3rd, not bad!

 

[Var]

FlyersGaf wins the Olympics! Thanks Jayhawk!

 

[Red_Man]

Nice job guys, my team was garbage :lol thanks to JayHawk for organizing this.

 

[lamaroo]

We should do this again for the playoffs
