Green - yes, he'll bounce back but I fear that the Caps are becoming Nashville. Where the elite players get 70, then a bunch of 50-point guys (like Green will be)
JJ - I like how he performed after the trade and I think he should flirt with 45 to 50

Hey Dobber,

What type of offensive numbers do you see from Stefan Elliott and Ryan Murphy for the next 3 years.

Thanks

I'm in a dynasty league that counts a bunch of categories for skaters, among them hits and blocked shots. Should I get myself into a deal where I would send Patrick Kane away for Dustin Brown plus, and if so, what territory should that plus be in?

Dobber,

Where do you see the role of advanced stats in the hockey world as it relates to fantasy hockey? Have you done much research on some of the more obscure stats like CORSI and the like and if so do you have an opinion on them?

Do you think there is a future for the use of some of these advanced stats in gaining an edge in fantasy hockey?

Hey Dobber, I'm in a deep 24 team H2H dynasty league (23 active and 27 man farm rosters). All the standard scoring categories plus H, BLK, SHP, and FOW. If he can complete a successful rehab, do you see James Sheppard being fantasy relevant in that sort of league setup? What do you see as a reasonable ceiling and baseline for him going forward? I do have the option for now to leave him stashed on the farm roster until he gets a call up next season with the Sharks.

Thanks for taking questions Dobber.

My question to you:

You own the 2nd overall pick in the upcoming prospects draft. In a H2H yahoo dynasty league with the following settings:

Skater Stat Categories
Goals (G)
Assists (A)
Plus/Minus (+/-)
Power Play Points (PPP)
Shots on Goal (SOG)
Penalty Minutes (PIM)
Hits (H)
Blocked Shots (BS)


Who do you take 2nd overall assuming Yakupov goes first for your fantasy team and why?

G-Rask, Halak, Schneider

These are for the team and league in my signature.

I finished 8th of 12 teams this year, and ended up with 47 out of a possible 48 points in our 4 goalie categories.

Trade 1:
My Rask and Little
for
D.Sedin, Ribeiro, J.Gustavsson

I would hate to lose Rask, but would still have Lundqvist, Halak, Elliott. Gustavsson has little value, so I would ask for something else to be added. My offense is hurting and D.S. would really help.


Trade 2:
My Parise, Tarasenko
for
L.Erikkson, R. Johansen, 2012 11th overall pick (mostly 2012 draftees)

I would lose the best player here in Parise, and am not sure if the rest makes up for it.

Thanks for your help.

Keeper League Points Only. Where do you think these Sabres will top out in the "prime" of their careers?? I realize you have stated this in the guides. But just wondering if anything has changed. And if Roy leaves via trade, maybe one or two of these guys get more points??

Vanek
Ennis
Stafford
Gerbe
Roy
Adam

Hullo. Thanks for answering. Someone else's question/answer helped me

My question. With the dig below I have pick #7. I need forwards and I'll assume the good ones are all gone by then. Should I hang onto 7 or trade it. If I do should I chase an established guy and what type of currency should I accept?

Thanks dude.
