What do you think is a fair expectation for Souray this year? Drafted him in last round for team in sig. Worth some risk or no risk at all? Defense WW is very shallow in league.

Thanks.

Hi Angus. I have the 1st and 10th picks in our keeper league draft this weekend. Roto league in sig. (NOT H2H)

Here are the top 10 skaters (IMO):

Matt Duchene
Joe Pavelski
Phil Kessel
David Backes
Martin Havlat
Mikko Koivu
Dustin Brown
Paul Stastny
Chris Stewart
Kris Letang

Here are the top 10 Goalies:

Carey Price
Miikka Kiprusoff
Jimmy Howard
Marc-Andre Fleury
Ilya Bryzgalov
Antti Niemi
Corey Crawford
Jaroslav Halak
Craig Anderson
Tomas Vokoun

I'm torn between taking Price and then the next best skater at 10th, or Letang and the best available goalie at 10th, or do I go another direction?

The more I keep looking at it, the more I think I'm leaning towards Letang...

For a while now I have been reading about Carlson's big splash in Washington and the possibility for him to really have a great year but it still seems like he will be cemented behind Mike Green. I was hoping to be able to count on him for top PP duty but alas I'm not so certain anymore. Should I be looking elsewhere in a goal heavy league that gives bonus for PPP ? I have toyed with the idea of trying to package him in a sell high attempt. Is he overhyped?

Who do you reckon is better between the two for this year? long-term?

Hey Angus,
Deep 16 team dynasty league with G, A, PIM, PPP, SOG, +/- would you give up Markstrom (have Halak as my starter), Dalpe, and Tarasenko for Subban, Coyle and 2nd round prospect draft pick from 2012? Trying to go for it all this year. Thanks.

Hey Angus, Thanx for doing this.

Picked up both Elliott and Schultz in the draft.

Question is Savard is still available.
If he sticks after the 9 games, should I pick him up and drop Schultz.

Schultz appears to be at least 2 years away with Visnovsky still there.
Or do you possibly see Schultz next year.

Thanx. Dynasty team in sig.
