Okay, today officially marked the end of the regular season for both of my yahoo fantasy pool. That means starting tomorrow, the real thing begins. That will be the playoffs! It's going to be a rough ride. Luck will play a major role with determining the winners for playoffs!
In my first pool, I finished the last week of the season with a 7-5 victory over the last place team. That will put me in second as I clinched my division, resulting in a second round birth automatically, along with my commissioner and captain's team. My initial goal was to get 4th place heading in the playoffs. But getting second is just as good! At least I'm guaranteed to finish in the last 4.
Now in my second pool, I finished the last week of the season with a 10-4 victory over the last place team. Before this week's matchup, I had the desire to topple my division, since I'm only 12 and 13 points back and given the fact I have been dominating, it seemed quite possible. However, this week saw the injury of my key faceoff men Manny Malhotra, who was struck in the eye by a puck on Thursday's win over Colorado and all-star Dany Heatley's two game suspension which eventually finished him off for this week. However, it's a good sign that Nicklas Backstrom returned to the lineup. Since then, I've been slowly weakened. Hopefully this won't happen starting tomorrow and the rest of the way! I will need everybody to win! Anyways, this win helped me finish 4th in the standings, my most desired position heading in the playoffs, beside being 2nd. Now I play the guy I had great success against during the season. That being said, I will not underestimate him. His team is nevertheless good! While my team just slightly got weakened! May the better team win! I hope God is on my side!
