Its the end of another week, and which also meant that it's also the end of the semi final for my yahoo fantasy league!! Playoffs are tough for everybody but if one is a true champion, one will overcome any situations that comes in play!
In the NHL league, I played the 3rd seed team which I had trouble beating during the regular season, only because there is always a hero for him whenever I play him. This week was pretty much the same except he has more than one player who really produced for him. Forward Claude Giroux, Chris Stewart and Jerome Iginla were his star players for this week! His team pretty much kept pounding in terms of even strength points. However, many other categories he failed to capture. My Star players of the week were my goaltenders. Netminder Cam Ward, Antti Niemi and Tim Thomas combined for 6 wins and 0 loss. 5/6 goalie categories were captured by me. I also managed to capture the Powerplay points and shorthanded points category, which helped me to prevail by a score of 7-6. It was really tough, but I proved my theory once again. Padding up stats and leaving others uncaptured is dangerous to a success of a team! So, on to the final I go! My next opponent will be a 4th place team that I had close matchups with during the regular season. I however will not underestimate him, because he still has a solid team! It's time to defend my title! God will be on my side!! Have hope, believe in your players!!
In the canucks4thecup league, I played the first seed team, while ranking 4th and after beating the 5th seed team in the first round. This week was more like battle of california for our matchup, only because he has the Anaheim Ducks' top players while I have the San Jose Sharks'. However, this week is to my disadvantage, because his ducks played four times while my sharks only played twice. So that means my other players had to step it up and that's what they did! My goalies as usual stepped up since both hockey pool goalies were the same! Players like Nick Backstrom, Alex Semin, Phil Kessel, Patrik Elias and many others all contributed this week. I ended up prevailing by a score of 10-6 thanks to my players! Now I'm on to the finals! So both of my hockey pool fantasy team are in the finals!! Now I would be playing against the second seed team who I had a bit of success in the regular season against. Again, I will not underestimate him, now that he has acquired players like Joe Thornton, Joe Pavelski and Alex Tanguay, through lopsided trade. It's time to put an end to his madness!! God will be on my side!! Just have to do it one more time!!
