Breaking News - The Exchange Player Card is in Play!

A typical Friday Night for Blow My Goat.

At the implied suggestion of Blow My Goat, who won Arrested Development 6's initial contest of 'Who has the most WTF google search avatar' he has decided that in lieu of his Tim Horton's prize (not available overseas or in Cache Creek) that he will use the 'Create a New Rule' card that has been specially designed to help get me out of last place.

Blow My Goat (without realizing it) has picked the Exchange Player Card!

Yes, the Exchange Player Card. Depending on your current position as of October 29th and shown on the right of the blog here, a sliding scale has been created that allows you to exchange a certain # of players according to your position. If you are #1 you can exchange 1 player, if you are #2 you can exchange 2 all the way to lucky #9 who can exchange 9 players!

This is an amazing great idea, I must say and I like to thank Blow My Goat in being so instrumental in his help devising it.

I believe all exchanges must be made online by the commissioner so feel free to email him your choices/hate mail via the usual outlets.

3rd Week and It's Time to Get My Shit Together

Chris Neil finishes putting Evander Kane's head up a linesman's ass.

So, no changes to the standings. The difference maker so far this month is Evander Kane. Who would have thought that a Winnipeg Jet would ever be #1 in anything? That is what makes this pool so unique. Yah, you could have Sidney Crosby (come on concussion-like symptoms!) or Ovie but really, where would that put you? well, in the back with me.

Other news this week - Phil Kessel gets a hattie, which gives anyone who picked him an extra 3 points.  so, way to go mojo-mahambo. Kessel gets Toronto's first hat trick since...(google search comes up blank).


THE HAT CLUB

Kessel joins Crosby, Stamkos, and Spezza as the only picked players with hatties; so here's to Phil Kessel, today's reigning Maple Leaf;

WHAT IS PISSING ME OFF THIS WEEK;

Some websites are already talking about the playoff picture.  1/8th of the way through. It's all fun and games to joke about the Hurricanes or Oilers as per usual, but when 'serious' hockey websites start claiming that the playoff picture is already shaping up or teams are 'in the hunt'.  It just maddens me, like Jim Babcock mad.
