Fantasy Hockey’s Most Frustrating Player – Final

The tournament is down to the final two players – fantasy hockey’s most frustrating owns…
Well folks – this is it. We've gone from 32 entirely worthy candidates for the title of fantasy hockey's most frustrating player, to THE FINAL TWO! After all your votes in the first three rounds, this week we'll decide who truly is the most gray hair inducing, stomach-churning, makes you want to put your fist through your monitor player in all of fantasy hockey!
This Week's FINAL MATCH
So here we have it – Mike Green vs. Can Ward in the final battle. I'm hesitant to predict a winner since although Green once finished fourth overall in votes whereas Ward never finished lower than second overall, we saw with Letang that a player can go from the penthouse to the outhouse in the blink of an eye. Plus, I still think that Ward is hurt by some voters being in non-goalie leagues. Meanwhile, despite the fact that Green seems to have the momentum right now, we need to remember that he actually lost votes going from week one to week two in his WHYDFML bracket while Ward gained nearly 50% from week one to week two.
This could be a battle that's decided by just a handful of votes (or fewer), so be sure to cast yours. Plus, only if you place your vote can you truly lay claim to being part of history in the making!

Elizabeth and Lewis are back to take listeners through a host of power play changes that are giving managers the opportunity to get exposure to great players off the waiver wire, including Philly, Jersey, and Tampa talk.
