when i was going through the rerates, i noticed some guys are a bit overrated.. i rarely have issues with the dvhl ratings, and im not about to start complaining to them considering how much time work and effort they put into them, so this is just for fun since its a select few guys..
1.Pitkanen 81 ov - second season, had a decent year but nothing spectacular.. youre telling me hes a full 3 overall points better than phaneuf? cmon...
2.Bouwmeester 79 ov - a little to high for a 40 point campaign consisting mainly of PP points.
3.Lecavalier 82 ov - im a vinnie fan but i dont think he deserves the same rating as brad who had a career year, and the clear-cut number one guy on that team.
4.Mccabe 83 ov - once again one of the most overrated guys in the nhl becomes one of the most overrated guys in fhl.. why oh why didnt we trade him for pronger...
5.Alfredsson 85 ov - i dont think hes better than forsberg.. just a part of the great sum thats all, it showed in playoffs.
while we're on the topic, lets see whose underrated:
1.T.Kaberle 80 ov - so youre telling me hes worse than pitkanen? i continue to say hes the most underrated player in the league.
2.Elias 81 ov - rright cause getting hepatitis C means you got low durability.. the guy would of had 100 points if he played the full season.
3.Ovechkin 84 ov - giving this guy a 99ov wont do justice to how good of hockey player he is
4.Gomez 80 ov - deserves better recognition and core ratings.

At least they brought McCabes DF down to where it belongs.
Ovechkin it perfectly rated IMO.
I'm happy Yelle finally got the DF rating he deserved.

I disagree with Ovechkin, I got to see him a lot of TV (Richmond gets Caps games), and yes, he is very good. But giving a rookie a 84 OV rating is ridiculous IMO, should never happen. I also happen to think Crosby is better than Ovechkin.

I dont agree with that notion, "giving a rookie a 84 OV rating is ridiculous". Ovechkins POTENTIAL IS RIDICULOUS. You cant take away the fact that the guy didnt look like a rookie in his first NHL season. He definitely handled himself well, and i think he looked better than Crosby, although many people have to realize that they play different styles of hockey. Crosby is more of a playmaker, not saying that Ovechkin isnt by any extent of the imagination, its just that i guess both have excelled terifically in their rookie seasons with different routes.

Pretty sure ovechkin wasnt going to get a 99. He's got flaws too!
Kaberle. Nothing spectacular about him
Alfreddson is way mpre durable than forsberg and thats a reason why he's rated higher.
Mccabe 83 ov - why oh why didnt we trade him for pronger... Kevin Lowe isnt stupid. McCabe can stay put in toronto where he belongs. Thank god we didnt deal pronger for mcCabe or kaberle.

I dont think people realize how great Tomas Kaberle is. He is the next Nicklas Lidstrom. He has great speed, can anchor a powerplay and made Mccabe that good. He is definitely underrated and is the best defenseman in the league to make decisions under pressure. He is a future norris trophy winner for sure, if the Leafs get a team, or if he moves from the Leafs onto the right team.

Thank god we didnt deal pronger for mcCabe or kaberle. nothing spectacular about kaberle? clearly coming from a leaf hater.. hes been one of the most consistent dmen in the entire league.. hes in the top eschelon in skating, passing, puck control, and speed among dmen.. everyone knows his main flaw, but you cant say theres nothign spectacular about him based on that only, the rest speaks for itself.

Now thats funny ;D I'm not just being a Leaf hater either. Thats ridiculous. By those standards Jovanovski is the next Coffey. Its hard not to hate the Leafs when they over rate their players that much...
Some people gotta remember that there is a two year age difference between Ovechkin and Crosby. Crosby will be better... he got 100+ points as an 18 year old.

I dont think people realize how great Tomas Kaberle is. He is the next Nicklas Lidstrom. i feel sorry for lidstrom. Kaberle and Lidstrom should not be mentioned in the same breath. We all know lidstrom is going to the hall. If kaberle plays like he always does, cant say that he would make it. Admin edit: Fixed your quote

hey, i never said anything about kaberle comparing to lidstrom. alls i said was that hes underrated.. lets not go way over our heads here, cause he aint no lidstrom.. being one of the most underrated dmen doesnt make you one of the best dmen.

This is getting ridiculous... there are some players nobody even has a chance at getting because they are on teams with no GM. Well aparently they have GM's, but some don't even have message board accounts any more.
Dallas - no account Columbus - no account Phoenix - last login May 30th.
All of these are good teams that I think could be filled. I think we should get replacements... they won't even notice they were kicked out (for a few months anyways).

Ok, well if anyone knows anybody that would be interested then please tell them to send me an e-mail. I made several posts about the vacancies on fhlsim.com and some other sites but only got like 2 responses. So if anyone has any ideas, then please speak up.....

i was gonna bring up the issue with phoenix long time ago, but figured he was friends with someone in the league.. this guy not only takes hours to reply on msn, but does not care whatsoever about his team.. ive made numerous offers to him, some ridiculously in his favor, to all of which he said no.. i then followed by asking him if he has any interest in making his team better or changing it to get out of last place.. to that he replied with one word as well, "no".. its one thing when you dont wanna make changes to your team because you like it, i often go through those stages.. but its another thing not to give one shit or even be aware that youre in a fantasy league.
