WK3 - Ceremonial Crunch

We can only go so long without a Crunch.

WK3 is in the books and we have a new leader; Sitch, who had been chasing the Lion's tail, had a super-Saturday to remember and now finds himself leading the League.

"Can you say, 'HAZZZ!'?" screamed a sarcastic Sitch.

Here are the charts, courtesy of the stats machine:

Sitch was this week's top bread winner, bringing home an astounding 183.25 fantasy points, topping Burgundy, who was second with 149.05 fantasy points. Dick Burns, who has been asleep for much of the season so far, came in third with 125.35 fantasy points, even though he's yet to put Erik Karlsson  on his starting roster (who's been picking up a pile of points since his return). Tree Bone clocked in with 114.30 fantasy points, and Safari brought in 104.30 fantasy points (the lowest of the week and his poorest showing thus far).

"Ebbs and flows, bitch!" snickered Burgundy towards Safari.

 Sitch has also overtaken the lead in PPGP; he now owns a League-leading 4.09 (+0.35 vs. last week) but is still closely followed by second-place Safari (4.03). Dick Burns, however, had the biggest PPGP improvement during WK3; he added a whopping 0.37 PPGP.

As for the Rainbow, Sitch was able to get better scoring this week from his players, boosting his player statistics to slightly better averages than League-wide scoring. What remains to be Sitch's foundation is still goalie statistics, though; his combination of Bishop (DAL), Crawford (CHI) and Murray (PIT) average 6.24 PPGP while owning the best winning %, GAA and save %. While this pace cannot possibly last, one has to wonder when exactly it is going to stop.

"I remember when I used to have insane goalie stats," chimed in Dick, who has been reeling with the struggles of Price (MTL). "It was a different time..."

No major movement in rank, with the exception of Sitch leapfrogging Safari into first. Safari's streak of leading Randy's Children has been capped at two weeks.

Not much else to report in the Randy Leagues at this time. As mentioned previously, I've been in close contact with Sitch and Safari, both who have started (or will be starting) new employment opportunities. These events, though outside the world of fantasy hockey, will be updated as I get more information. The infamous Next Question series will also begin taking shape, so be on the lookout for those to come out soon.

Cordially,
