Wanna Play Fantasy Hockey?

Hi. We're slackers. Apparently fantasy hockey is more popular than we thought. We know this now because all of the best live online draft times between now and the start of the season are taken. You live and you learn.

So the "official" St. Louis Game Time Fantasy Hockey League will commence with a live online draft Oct. 7 at 6:15 p.m. St. Louis time. Scoring will start the next day. If you can't make the draft, it will autopick for you.

So if you're game, leave a comment and say you want to do it. We'll e-mail you the league info (don't worry, we have your e-mail from your registration as long as you put your legit e-mail). And don't worry about us, Brad's team had no goaltending and Sean claimed to be busy during the season, doing what, we don't know.

we all had problems last year. Brad had to suffer Zetterberg’s rediculous slump and no-waive clause instilled by the league. Brian (GT prospect dept.) drafted mostly all rookies & got a bright spot in Cammelleri and Fleury, but was at the bottom of the barrel when the young squad didn’t produce as much. I couldn’t buy a point the last 1.5 months of the season and my run for the top of the league was for naught and I slinked to the middle of the pack. One shocker was this team “Flying Finns” who never made one transaction all season (while a few of us had at least 30) yet somehow never left the top 3. excellent drafting by that guy.

anyways, I’m definately in again this year. I’m thinking of using a different name/pun this time…

As Dooks pointed out above, the Route 66 Racers iced a youngster-laden club last year, and got their asses handed to ‘em on a silver plate… but what the heck, I’m in for another go.

I’m keeping the name, too.. I even made up an actual logo, and if I ever hit the lottery and buy a USHL fanchise for central Illinois, that’s what I’m gonna name the team.

Right after I build my 4000-seat old-fashioned ice palace right where Old Route 66 crosses I-55 outside of my hometown, beautiful cosmopolitan Staunton, Illinois.

As the resident GT all-things-fantasy columnist, I’m ready to be ridiculed as I get my ass handed to me.

Alright, with me, that makes seven. I’ll send e-mails out to everyone tonight giving them details how to sign up. Three more people would be optimal, so if you’re interested, post a comment.
