The first ever African Nations Cup of Ice Hockey will be taking place from September 19-26 in Johannesburg, South Africa, between Algeria (who are fresh off their first ever victory against a French Division II team), South Africa (who I witnessed lose all of their games in the IIHF Div. IIB World Championships last May) and Morocco (who I know nothing about). I will let you know exciting details as they are made available!
The IIHF Power Rankings are an entertaining way to follow the IIHF World Hockey Championship without having to watch any of the games. They are basically smart-alecky tweets about each team, updated every day or two.
South Africa also beat Greece, Turkey and Luxembourg, before finally falling to those dirty Commies from North Korea . They therefore are promoted to Division II next year, to face powerhouses like Belgium, Serbia and Spain.
I have created a fantasy hockey league where the worst team wins. You get bonus points for penalty minutes, negative plus-minus, faceoff losses, lost games and goals against, but penalized for scoring goals, winning games or getting shutouts.
Somebody in the Lux Forums started a fantasy hockey league, and we need a few more people to play.
You put together a team through a draft. We're doing autodraft, so you don't even have to be there -- it'll just draft according to how you rank the players, or if you dont rank the players, it has a very good pre-ranking based on last season's results.
Each team accrues statistics in 10 basic areas throughout the season, and you trade/adjust your team as necessary.
If you want to play, come join the league. League ID: 54556 Password: dustin
