Multiply 365 Day 270 - Puck this

 

I think I remember saying a little while back that I wouldn't use not having anything to say as a crutch for avoiding to blog, but on days like today it is very tempting to break that vow. At least last night I had an excuse, I was pretty well drunk, enough so that I was lucky to bang out the two sentences that I did. Memo to self, stay away from shots of Jack Daniels in the future.

If it is of any consolation, the blog wasn't the only thing I was neglectful of last night. I was supposed to take part in a fantasy hockey draft, but I missed it, so my team was autodrafted. The thing is the league is only 6 teams, so I have to think everyone got a pretty decent roster, and given how bad I was last year, maybe having Yahoo draft for me will turn out to be better than me doing it myself. A quick glance at the roster and I seem to have started out okay,

1. Alexander Ovechkin LW WAS

2. Henrik Lundqvist G NYR

3. Nicklas Backstrom C WAS

4. Pekka Rinne G NSH

5. Pavel Datsyuk C,LW DET

6. Jarome Iginla RW CGY

7. Mike Green D WAS

8. Drew Doughty D LA

9. Ilya Kovalchuk LW,RW NJ

10. Keith Yandle D PHO

11. John Tavares C NYI

12. Matt Duchene C COL

13. Christian Ehrhoff D BUF

14. Vincent Lecavalier C TB

15. Marian Gaborik RW NYR

16. Erik Karlsson D OTT

17. Alexander Burrows LW VAN

18. Scott Hartnell LW PHI

19. Ryan Whitney D EDM

20. Chris Stewart RW STL

21. Corey Crawford G CHI

22. Tyler Myers D BUF

23. Patric Hornqvist RW NSH

24. Stephen Weiss C FLA

Not too shabby for me not being in attendance. Might be a little heavy on Capitals, I was burned with Mike Green last year and if I had been there I would never have drafted Ryan Whitney, who gets injured about as often as he breathes. Oh well, with 6 teams in the league I am sure there will be ample opportunity to replace the sucky guys.

There, I guess there was something to blog about after all. Now I can sleep a tad bit easier.
