Sadly for the viewers, the third Game 7 of the second round wasn’t as exciting as the other two. This wasn’t much of a contest as the Kings jumped out to a 5-0 lead and never looked back.   After a handful of narrow escapes, my two Cup teams are still alive in New York [...]

Capped: Complexity of Player Evaluations in Cap Leagues

Three weeks ago I was approached with questions regarding how to assess player value in a very complex fantasy league. The dynasty league in question was a 14-category head-to-head league with deep pro and farm rosters in addition to a salary cap.

    No Ramblings for me for several months, then I get to step up to the plate [wait - what’s the equivalent of that in hockey parlance………maybe skate up to the faceoff dot?] to do ramblings twice in a matter of three weeks! Hopefully I didn’t exhaust all of my good material the last [...]
