If you find you have abandoned teams in either blue or gold, and are looking for new ownership, please let me know. I'd be glad to take over a team.

GDT: Dallas visits Buffalo Sabres Oct. 14th, 3pm ET, MSG and WGR550
LabattBlue replied to jsb's topic in The Aud Club
Blowing two goal 3rd period leads the past two games has me a little nervous about today. Over the last two games, they've also really come out of the gates slow(first 10 minutes or so). I'd like to see a more solid 60 minute game. Dallas is a really good team with above average goaltending despite what their record might indicate. Buffalo 4 Dallas 2 Skinner, Oloffson, Joker & Middelstadt -

LabattBlue replied to jsb's topic in The Aud Club
Saw the opener. Missed the last two because I was in Nashville(excuse me for being distracted). ? Good guys in a big way tonight... Buffalo 5 Montreal 2 Eichel(2), Reinhart, Joker and Girgensons with the goals. -

This is the kind of banter I never realized I would miss. LOL

I've lurked here from time to time, and also visited other boards over the last few years. I know this may sound corney, but the other places always seem cold. The Aud Club always had a warm friendlier feel to it...at least most of the time. :) Good to be home.

Except for some SabreSpace blue and gold fantasy hockey posts, I have been on a 4 year hiatus. Unfortunately, fast forward 4 years, and nothing has changed in terms of the Sabres fortunes. Be easy on me during my return...I am a little rusty. PS Good to see my "complaint" thread is still alive and well. Go Sabres!

I'm in for Gold again(Captain Morgan). Two things...last year we had four goaltending categories(W, GAA, SA & SV%)...that needs to be reflected for new league where there are currently seven goaltending categories. The other thing...I would replace SHP with GWG. Short handed points is just a crap shoot...or just get rid of the category without adding another. -

I will be holding my SabreSpaceGold championship parade at 1PM tomorrow. It will be held outside of the local Dollar Tree store. Afterwards, everyone in attendance gets one free item from the store. It was a fun year...except for a couple of deadbeat teams from the outset. -

I left roughly a year and a half ago. Only signed in for the purpose of keeping up with thread related to SabreSpace Gold Fantasy Hockey League. I will chime in and say this, I do lurk from time to time, and nothing has really changed that would make me start participating in hockey talk again. Maybe someday. -

I am making one last plea in Gold...can the owners of Paul's Pleasant Team and Qwksndmonster please spend at least 5 minutes each week to start active players and replace anyone on IR. I hate lame duck teams especially ones that are that way from the very beginning of the season. Thx. -

Me too. I wonder if that is a setting that can be changed(for next year). Also...in gold, I believe there is a least one absentee owner -

I have a suggestion for next year...increase pick time to 90 seconds. I don't know if I had "auto pick owners" on each side of me when drafting, but I couldn't keep up with the selections. -

If you are talking about Gold, I'm out for Tuesday. I realize you are trying to accommodate everyone, but changing the draft day/time at the 24 hour mark makes it tough. -

LabattBlue replied to deluca67's topic in The Aud Club
I was the one who brought up the goalie issue, but my suggestion was to have only 12 teams. With 14 teams there weren't enough goalies to go around. Not sure if at this late date you want to switch back to two goalies since there are now only 12 teams, or leave it at 1 goalie. -

If you need an extra owner in Blue and the draft won't overlap with Gold, I'll give it a shot. -

The proposed change to a keeper league in Gold is not happening, correct? -

LabattBlue replied to deluca67's topic in The Aud Club
The downside to keepers...since there is no financial incentive, and there is some turnover every year, a new owner may end inheriting crap when it comes to keepers. I would say no to keepers, but if you want to change things up a bit, what about an auction draft? -

I still think the ratio of skater categories to goalie categories should be more like 11 to 4 instead of 9 to 4, when you compare the number of skaters on a roster to goalies. I don't think there is any downside to adding to more "skater" categories. Gives each team more flexibility. i.e. adding a defensive defenseman who may excel at hitting, blocked shots, PIM, plus/minus, but may not be much of a point producer. I realize you can't make incorporate everyones suggestions, but I would add back in some combination of two of the following... 1 - GWG 2 - Plus/Minus 3 - PIM -

LabattBlue replied to deluca67's topic in The Aud Club
I am in for Gold. If you have two teams drop out, I would go with 12 versus adding two replacements. In a league where you are allowed to start two goalies, 14 teams are too many. Also, I would drop one of the goalie categories(I would drop saves or save percentage. No need for both) You have 11 scoring categories, and 5 goalie categories, where the lineup consists of 11 skaters and only 2 goalies. -

Nice job in Gold guys! I managed a 3rd place finish overcoming underachievers in two of my first 3 picks...Kessel & Tyler Johnson. See you all next year!
