League categories in sig. Any thought on how both will fare in the next year or two? I see both being stuck in depth, but wanted to know if you feel better about one or the other.

Nothing else to do during the lockout

Schlemko because his name is funnier.

I dont like any of these two guys. You must be in a really deep league if you are talking about these guys.

Out of the two of them I would go with Schlemko. He finished the season strong for Phoenix and I have a gut feeling that once the season gets going that Phoenix is going to move some of their defencmen and there will be a roster spot for him.

My professional opinion would be they would both continue to suck.

That's the beauty of deep roto leagues - guys who seemingly suck have value. That is why they are in the NHL in the first place. The league has 24 teams, 23-man rosters and 27-man farms. Schlemko is my #6/7 dman right now (Bourdon and Stone behind him on my depth chart).

Prosser is decent (good PIM and blocks, modest pts, bad +/-) but I just feel like he could be doing press box duty.

This is why I was asking if anyone has a better feel for their situations.

I like Schlemko more, but he has to fight for the icetime on a very deep Phx backend.

Neither of them will get much points but I think Prosser has better upside for peripherals (PIM, hits and blocks).

I like Schlemko a bit more actually, I like what I've seen from him for Phoenix last season, albeit in limited action. I don't expect either to become anything better the 3rd pairing d-men with limited to no PP time, though.

(side note: just saw Schlemko is playing with Kyle Chipchura for Arizona of the CHL...not on the Dobber lockout player tracker)
