I've personally never thought he would be a big time scorer.

I think his playoff performance did wonders to increase his value in fantasy circles. I'm not buying it.

I'm with COD here, not a huge fan of Kreider either.

Good luck.

Can I ask why you're looking for center help?

I honestly can't see the reason for it. Tavares, Stamkos, Kopitar, Benn, Read has to be one of the best in the league. Are you trying to upgrade Read?

You're arguably more weak on the LW with Clowe and Franzen being band aid banner boys or RW with Downie and Nino pulling up the rear.

Even your goaltending isn't all that rough with Smith, Fleury and Rask.

I would definitely look to upgrade Clowe/Franzen or the LW, Downie/Nino on the RW before looking center help. Even before trying to upgrade your goaltending.

I don't know, maybe I'm missing something.

But definitely Nyquist first.

I would definitely agree with you, I didn't take into account that Benn will be Center pretty much all season. Good point!
I've been trying to flip Franzen for a long time. No one seemed to like his 10 GWGs last year.

Wow. So this is how it turned out (the top 5 picks at least)
1. Yakupov
2. Galchenyuk
3. Kreider
4. Murray
5 (me). Grigorenko

Thanks for all the input lads! I'm going to use those suggestions and hopefully get a third round steal!

Thats what I said. That and my gut feeling that someone would take Murray just because he went second overall came true.

Gotta say I'm happy with what happened! I was trying to do a deal with another manager where I'd deal my first rounder and Doughty for Patrick Kane. Gonna hold on to Grigs for now

Thanks It doesn't really address my winger-depth-weakness but I just had to take him. If Grigorenko is there, you take him (as my forefathers once said)
