When you nothing about Basketball so you just randomly guess

Wouldn’t be shocked if you won the bracket pool then haha. Typically, the less you know about basketball, the better you do because why not lol.

Syracuse Orange wins over Michigan Wolverines in the final. #smart

Is that good?

Don't stress it. All I did was copy some journalists picks. Hopefully he knew a thing or two about college basketball

Quick question for everybody - who considers themselves to be "buyers" at the deadline? Just seems like there isn't a huge market for rental depth players at the moment, so if there's anybody that's actually interested in those types of players, please make yourself noticed.

Not so much depth, I'm set there. Only looking at rentals that will fit into my regular lineup and are very cheap to acquire.
Problem is that the supply of depth players greatly exceeds the demand, because teams have already stocked up on players that are a little above depth level.
Too many teams selling, and a lot of 2nd/3rd liners taking up bottom 6 slots on the competing teams as a result.

Speaking of this, Johnny Oduya is available. We're sellers but that should be no surprise with how bad the Senators are this year.

Available for Picks/Prospects

Matt Cullen
Jussi Jokinen
Taylor Chorney
Colin Greening
Miro Aaltonen
Justin Holl
Ben Smith
Brandon Bollig
Rinat Valiev

I would consider myself a buyer in the sense that I'd like to add experience for the imaginary playoffs.
Most notably on defense. The problem is that teams who are "selling" want some crazy high prices for anyone of relative worth.
That siad, there are deals to be made, but both teams need to be willing to work at together rather than everyone looking to make a "big score" at this time of year.
The other issue is simply that players someone may have interest in just aren't available right now for obvious reasons. So that plays into it too.

And as I've said right from the time I joined, I'd much prefer someone tell me what they want/need for players I may inquire about rather than just saying, "you can offer".
My own personal reasons for that is I have no idea what they might want, so if I offer something they consider too low, it makes me look like a lowballer and on the other hand if I come in too high the risk is there to overpay for no reason.

On the complete other hand, I would also consider myself to be a seller. Since there can only be 1 winner each year I have given thought to looking ahead to next year by using the decent assets I may have to start 2018/19 in a better position.

It doesn't help when no one really visits your team page to inquire about anyone on your team. Kinda makes a person wonder if they even have anything of value to try and make deals with.
There's also the conspiracy theory in my mind that others just don't want to deal with you for whatever reason. The only reason I even think that is when I see trades involving players I asked about moving for less than what I was willing to pay. But again, that all goes back to the other team needs to work with you and make it known what they want rather than just either saying "make an offer" then turning it down, or simply saying no to anything you put out there as a starting point.

I'm not going to say which GM it was, but around the time the game started, i made an offer on a player, and the team took quite a bit less than what i offered from another team.

Hey, I was new!

Taking offers on Joshua Ho-Sang. He is not being shopped but we will listen. Ideally the return would be: depth pieces + picks/prospects.

Also looking for a cheap 4C and depth defensemen.

Interested in Cullen as a 4C?

Not a hole lot, I’m looking for someone I can bring back next year to replace Letestu if I lose him. Cullen is likely to retire this year.
