Thanks for doing one of these man, much appreciated.

1.) how much is too much for tarasenko... is he worth granlund + or stepan +
12 team league keep 12 + 5 farm (100 gp) h2h weekly starts

start 10 fwds positions matter, G A PIM +/- hits blks ppp shp fow sog
23 pro roster spots.

would love to acquire him in as many leagues, im in many similar with the above cats that are keepers or dynasty. trying to assess tho what fair market value is for him so i dont fall victim to over paying with all the hype. if i have to pay a bit extra i might be okay with that but i dont want to get caught up in him and sell off someone who's equal in value and a sweetner to boot.

2.) 20 team h2h G, A, +/-, SOG, PPP, SHP, PIM, HITS, BLKS

keep 7 now but will be a dynasty next season.

current keepers are OV seguin tavares pietrangelo rask b.smith nyquist

we carry over our farm too (grigs yakupov coyle mrazek) may keep khudobin if nyquist doesnt warrant a spot this season. goalies are kind of scarce.

been receiving a ton of interest in OV, and with it switching to a dynasty format next season maybe selling him for two or 3 good pieces now would be a good idea.

best offer so far thats interested me as far as who im receiving (had some fair market offers but they werent particularly appealing) and would like to know if i should ask for more coming back or not. not opposed to keeping OV either.

MY : OV + b.smith

for

HIS: Lucic + Weber

keepers would then be... Lucic, seguin, tavares, rask, weber, pietrangelo, nyquist/khudobin.

Craig Smith. What are your thoughts on him? How long to wait? He's got a nice upside, and an extra appeal in setups that include PIM, but he's been getting very little ice-time so far this year. Given the sparseness of offensive talent in Nashville, that is not a good sign for Smith.

Thanks!

Thanks for doing this, Jeff! All of these questions pertain to the team/stats in my signature.

1. Jeff Carter or Cody Hodgson for this season?
2. Do you think Conacher sticks with the top line in TB. Thought on him in general?
3. Looking into your crystal ball, what does Minnesota do with Backstrom?
4. Is Alex Steen a solid add or just asking for trouble (BAB)?
5. Zajac is just sitting on the FA list. Add or pass?

Cheers!

He's been as advertised - deadly on the PP, great passer, still a ways to go defensively.

That is a tough move to evaluate - I'd probably do it, but Ryan is a stud.

Yes. It has been three games.

I feel like this could be my last chance at getting fair value for them in a trade.

I am of the mindset that there is no time like the present - unless you think you have no chance at winning, I don't see the point of trading two elite centers.

I guess I'm just looking for your thoughts on the difference between Howard and Lindback. Personally, I feel like Lindback could be the better goalie.

I'd hold off for now - he "could" be the better goalie, but he has a lot to prove.

They do this every year - it makes it tough to really get an accurate measure for TOI. I like Boedker a lot - I think he's the guy to own in Phoenix.

Dont need keepers - for example in defence I have Shattenkirk, Keith, del Zotto, Letang, Faulk - and can keep only 4.
Do Callahan, Seidenberg and A.McDonald give me better chance this year (play-off!)? Or is it better to propose this trade without Hamilton and Seidenberg for example?

Yes they do, but I'd be very cautious about giving up Hamilton.

I will be very grateful for detailed answer (espessially 2nd question). Thanks!

Kassian, by a lot. I may be biased (not so much as a Canuck fan, but I have followed his career quite closely). He has a huge opportunity to produce, and so far has responded.

I know AO carries a lot more value. He's the big name.
But, at the end of the year, the winner of the league is the one with most points, not better value...
Last year, Neal outpointed AO by 16.

Yes it is. You have to make that move.
