A look at the week two standings sees three of last years top teams at the same place. While most predicted Gordo & Kmsh to be in the top half, no one, even the often wrong Napkin could have predicted Wendy being back atop the standings, tied for 1st with a perfect record, but Wendy's goon & vets came through again for him. The real surprise of the week is team "6". D-Po's team of expansionites managed to garner 38 points, and they did that with zeros from Gerber and Williams.
CUT-DOWN DAY will be prior to the first NHL game on Monday Nov. 6th. You'll need to post your 13 active, 12 bench, and 5 protected players, and remember that the protected players must be 21 or younger.
Notice on the goon points - they will be rounded up or rounded down to the nearest whole number.

BIG & STINKY
A BIG WEEK to "6" who hit 38 points, almost equaling his week one points.
FORWARDS: Vinny finally gets his name in this column with 21 points - Afinogenov looks Bure-esque without the Gino drapery
VET: Ray Whitney Houston gets ORV 5
GOON: Avery = Snap Show = 5 for Wendy
ROOK: Anze the Slovene tallies 5 for Kmsh
GOAL: It's a bald goalie - no, not Auld. It's Gorton's Vokoun
STINKY WEEK goes to Smitty for his not-that-bad 23 point effort
PLAYER OF THE WEEK
He's been owned by almost every GM in the OFHL, but Vinny's been able to get the Maxim 10 points out of Afinigenov. Gordies follicly-challenged tenda got 8, while Yashin finally decided to try - at least 7 times.
Wearing the vintage bisons, Maxim does his best Jyrkki Lumme stick-handling impression.
