    I though about it but I'm going to go with the Canadiens. Also was very tempted to go with my team from last year the wild. So you can take Montreal off the board.

    The Wild are getting the love in here and from Vegas. Sportsbooks had them as second best odds (ahem behind the rangers and ahead of the ducks ahem) and that was before they even clinched a playoff spot!

    Alrighty then @Pidzik12 is up.....

    Off the board: NYR, CHI, MON, TBL

    Also, @Stu_Grimson fear not because you can always take a Datsyuk or an ice cold Zetterberg when player picks come back around.

    I'll take the Ducks. I mean, Paul Kariya and Teemu Selanne should be able to pull it off this year.

    You're up @st9647v3

    Or you can wait for your team to clinch (@st9647v3 shoot me a message if you're waiting so I don't harass you)

    @jbaker67 @carmike813 @Pidzik12 @rynosf23 @Stu_Grimson : In case the player draft becomes a time crunch, can you guys shoot me your top 3 player choices via BM when you get a chance. Thanks.

    Just an fyi. Lkoro has not completed his end of a BIF I ran that ended in December. He has also ignored messages and now doesn't even open them even though he has been on BA. If you search the forum you will see other bifs he is in with the same problem.

    I appreciate the heads up. Lkoro was in the pool last year and made good on his commitments. He's made contributions to some worthy LIF's as well. My philosophy is that unless someone has screwed me first hand I tend to presume the best. So I plan to proceed as is, with him.

    For others in the group who may leery, if by some chance Lkoro does not make good then I will cover his box. I expect he will be around and hopefully contribute some hockey banter as well.

    I agree - I ran this BIF last year and he delivered a great box.

    Not sure what else is going on with him but I think he should be allowed to partake.

    Well if any of you know him personally, can you talk to him about his prior obligation? He seems like an up and up guy and I'd hate to start a thread in the bad trader forum. It's just when he says its going to go out over and over across the span of months then stops acknowledging BM's at all, I get a bit worried.

    @Gunch43 The man you are talking about is a close personal friend of mine. If there is an issue, I will ask that you BM me the details and I will not only ensure that you get what's coming to you but make sure it happens within a reasonable amount of time. Much like myself, he has been working some pretty long days and has not had the extra time one would like to be on BA. I would encourage you do not start a bad trader thread as he is anything but. The man is a stand up good hearted gent. Send me the info and I will ensure you get paid in full. I will at some point see him this weekend. Should you need anything, let me know as I am happy to help. I will provide you all my contact info as I will be happy to fulfill his obligation should you not be satisfied with this response.

    Trust me when I say, you have NOTHING to worry about.

    Cheers

    Tim

    @Hops_n_Hawks so you are basically rooting for beer ... The hockey part is secondary
