Many of you probably saw the blurb below on Yahoo! written by Janet Eagleson...Cmon! is Connolly this good?

\"Tim Connolly, C, Buffalo (16.58 percent owned) – Do not pass go. Do not collect $200. Just hustle your butt and get this guy off waivers, OK? He\'s healthy (knock on wood) and he\'s hot. And there is no way he should be available in more than four of every five leagues. I know center is the deepest position going but he has seven points, four of which have come on the power play, in five games heading into Friday. Doesn\'t sound spectacular? That\'s a 115-point pace. He won\'t get it, but he has the kind of talent that could deliver more than 90 points if he stays out of the infirmary.\"

Actually he is that good - the problem is that he faded from our memory because of his injuries over the last several years - very severe concussion took him out - I think he could do just about what she says. I think if they took him to the first line over Roy and played him with Vanek and Afino that there would be big noise of a buffalo stampede.

He is that good, but he\'s such an injury risk I would not want him on my keeper league team. In a one-year pool, well that\'s a different story...

I hate the Centre position. I have Spezza, Getzlaf and Prospal. No room for Connolly and I can\'t believe he is still sitting as a FA mocking me, begging someone else to pick him up!

I know what you mean...Antropov is still in our FA pool as well. Everyone has enough Centers. Next year, in my one year pools I am really going to avoid drafting a 3rd center until the late rounds as it seems like a number of good center options are available every year after the draft.
