Davoooooooos!

With Robbie deciding to grace our roster with his presence, I'm confident we can win a few games this World Cup.

@KingRobbie Team USA awaits your decision.

First off, I'd like to mention that this roster is not complete. You'll notice we have one forward spot left open. This is because we are waiting on a announcement from Sir William Covington III, who we would like to have on the roster but has made indications that he may not be interested. Once he makes his decision, we will be able to finalize our roster one way or another. But, without further ado, here is what the roster will look like. Forwards Sir William Covington III @KingRobbie Kai Roberts @Ghost Reaper Travis Gowecny @eaglesfan036 AK47 @701 Jordan Maverick @Dmoushey_31 Diana Maxwell @Streetlight Defensemen D Titan Kronos @Evans D Shayne Gow @flyersfan1493 Chuck Goody @Nike Zach Voss @STLZACH Goalies Apollo Skye @Velevra Ryan Price @GreatOneHimself I do believe we will see improvement over the last tournament. That is to say, I think we can manage to win at least one game. Let's go win a game!

I shouldn't be the next Yukon GM. I'll end up not wanting it after a season or two. But pick me anyway. Or don't. If there is anyone else you are considering by the time you make a decision, pick someone else instead of me. Oh, and I wouldn't want Moscow at all

Nah, you guys murdered him. That's why he went inactive. Your own brother. Damn.

My fantasy football roster (12-team league)

Eighth time Toronto and Davos have matched up in the finals. So far they've alternated winners, and it's Toronto's turn.

Shawn Muller in this series

Dynamo one game from returning to finals It's been over ten seasons since the Dynamo last played in the finals, the longest ongoing absence in the league and the longest in franchise history as well. The last time they made an appearance was in S39; this had been their fourth consecutive finals, a loss to the New York Americans. Prior to the current drought, they had never even gone more than six seasons without winning a Cup, let alone missing the finals. The league's top franchise has fallen on tough time lately, but they are looking to bring back the success this season. After losing to Riga in the first round of the S49 playoffs, the Dynamo were determined to make it further this season. In a rematch, they took down the Reign in six games, moving on to face the Express, who represented Europe in the finals last season. The two teams were close in the regular season, with just two points separating them in the standings. The series has been very back and forth thus far. Cologne took game one thanks to a shutout from Artom Zhumbayev, but Davos took the next two thanks in large part to two of their retirees, Francis York Morgan and Jorma Ruutu. Cologne came back in full force for game four, scoring five goals, but that was just a blip in Sandro Clegane's semi-final performance. He returned to form in game five as the Dynamo took the lead again with a 2-1 victory, and that's where we currently stand. The series has been highlighted by stellar play from both goaltenders, aside from one off game from each (Zhumbayev in game two, Clegane in game four). Even including those games, Clegane has a 0.932 save percentage in the series, while Zhumbayev is at 0.943. This season has been a good one for goalies, and the conclusion of this season, whether it ends at six or seven, will likely see some more outstanding play from these two. Clegane was very impressive in the series against Riga was well aside from a six-goal game two (a game which Davos still managed to take to overtime). Sandro Clegane is pretty good -- most of the time. Whoever wins this series will move on to face the winner of Toronto and Quebec. The Legion currently lead the series 3-2 after the Meute mounted a third-period comeback in game five to stay alive. If both the Dynamo and Legion and close out their respective series, it would be a familiar finals story. These two teams have met in the finals a record seven times, with Davos currently leading the matchup 4-3. The Legion are seeking a third straight championship, having won in S48 and S49. The Dynamo's Francis York Morgan played on both of those cup-winning Toronto teams and is looking to close out his career on a high note. He had arguably the best season of his career, and he has been quite productive in the playoffs as well. During the regular season, he led all defenseman with 92 points, and in 11 post-season games, he has four goals and seven assists. Jorma Ruutu is another retiring player who, like Morgan, was acquired by Davos this season in order to bolster their roster. He led the team with 44 goals in the regular season, and he is continuing his strong play in the post-season, leading Davos with six goals and nine assists. He previously won a Continental Cup with the Americans in S47. While ending the finals drought would be a great first step, ultimately the goal this season for the Dynamo is a championship. If they can finish off the Express, they will be considered the underdogs (but not insurmountably so) in the finals, be it against Toronto or Quebec. With Ruutu and Morgan retiring and William Covington and Shawn Muller becoming free agents, the future of Davos is unclear. This only amplifies the importance of this season for the Dynamo.

Yeah, great might be a stretch. Certainly I don't meant to say he could be top tier, but with him as the quarterback, I'm still expecting playoffs for the Vikings and a potential run at the Super Bowl. I think he can play well enough that the Vikings aren't relying too much on Adrian Peterson.

Oh wow that's too bad.

yuk

Save some for the World Cup please, we're gonna need you.

My thoughts as well. I'm not sure there was any better option out there for the Vikings, and I still believe Bradford could be a great quarterback, assuming he can stay healthy.

no winners btw

same dude, get banned

Stevo said hombre first though, hombre.

Hombre.

I don't pay attention to the fact that there are other themes aside from the one that I use. This poll is irrelevant to me for that reason.

The milestone that's just about over though.
