Default Sami Salo

Will the injury to Elder mean Salo gets rushed back into the line up?
Aparently he has been practicing and travelling with the team for weeks, surely he's ready.
Is a cap situation the reason he isnt in the team already?
Surely he is a better offensive player then Ballard and so wouldnt he then be the better player to add, maybe Ballard gets more minutes but wouldnt Salo get the PP time?

I have Gilbert and MA Bergeron on my roster, which if any would you drop for Salo???

He's not ready: http://www.nucksmisconduct.com/2011/...rome#storyjump

"When Sami is cleared medically to play we have a plan for him," Gillis said. "He has been inching along. He seemed to hit a plateau a week or so ago and now he is fighting through that. When you get to the last stages of this type of injury incremental gains are really difficult. And we are clearly being as conservative as possible with Sami. He is an older guy, a veteran player, and he has to be mentally, emotionally and physically ready to play."

Maybe in a few weeks, but not an immediate replacement.

Is that from Gillis or your speculation? I have heard shortly after the allstar break

I was going off of what is said in the rest of the article. Although I suppose that is their speculation, so take it for what it's worth.

Two goals for the Moose tonight already. Can't be too far from Vancouver I suppose. With Edler out, it'll be good timing.

I really wouldn't, the 'Nucks still have plenty of D-men with Ballard, Bieksa, Ehrhoff. Salo is not fantasy relevant, stay away.

In a one-year, deep league he might be worth something. The Nucks have used him on the PP before. His points often prorate to around 35/season. Problem is that he never gets enough games in.

Still, with Ehrhoff and Bieksa/Ballard getting PP time too, I'd think there are better options out there.

With Edler out I would say he is fantasy relevant. Erhoff is obviously first on the depth chart, but Salo can produce equally or better than the likes of Bieksa/Ballard.
