H2H league with A, g, +\-,pim, sog, win, saves. Inaugural prospect draft coming soon. Can pick any player below 100 gp or goalie below 75 plus the 2012 draft class. Can you tell me who would be in your top ten.

Blum will be a long wait, in terms of points. If you acquired him next year he'd be even cheaper

2. Markstrom had his second knee surgery this year. Is he a band-aid boy in the making and currently what do you see as his timeline to the #1 goalie slot in FLA?

He is a BAB in the making, definitely a worry. Could steal No.1 job this coming season or next, would depend on injuries (to him and Theodore)

Quote:

3. Perron - is he going to be primarily a 1st liner next year in STL or is the scoring by committee situation going to continue there?

It will continue. Nobody gets 65 (unless McDonald stays healthy)

Quote:

4. Crawford - where do you put his over/under at starting the season in CHI as the #1 keeper next year?

Thanks.

80/20 that he is the No.1 guy

1. I own Luongo in a dyanasty league. It is start 2 goalies with stats of W, GAA, SV%, SO, SV. I also own Rinne and Anderson. With the tenuous situation in Vancouver, would you look to trade Luongo? Will he be just as good elsewhere if he is traded?

2. Of these players, which is most likely to repeat or better their performace of this past season and who is least likely to repeat:

Giroux, Ovechkin, M.Smith, Spezza, Kovalchuk, Neal, Karlsson, Seguin, Parenteau, Vrbata.

Thanks again.

You have three great goalies - keep them. Awesome insurance

Repeat
Giroux M.Smith Spezza Kovalchuk

Better
Ovechkin, Seguin.

Worse
Neal, Karlsson, Parenteau (least likely), Vrbata

Neal could repeat/better if Malkin healthy. Karlsson will slip slightly due to increased focus on him

I don't see him rising much higher than he is, the last rankings already took into account a strong playoff showing. He is a hold, I don't know if people will trust the situation in WAS enough to pay you proper value.

1) Is there any team that Rick Nash could land that you would consider keeping him over Bobby Ryan or Zach Parise?

2) Who is a better keep in a points only league, Anze Kopitar or Jamie Benn

3) In a points only keeper is Parise, Karlsson and a 1st round pick in our re draft too steep a price to pay for Crosby and Pietrangelo?

1. Most teams I would keep him over Ryan. No team would I keep him over Parise. Well, okay Pittsburgh.
2. Kopitar
3. No, that's fair. Also risky.

Points Only Keeper league...... Who would you rather have going forward and know matter who you pick, you have time to wait.

Rundblad or Blum ??? And a quick why the selection??

Thanks buddy.

Rundblad. I do not like what happened with Blum this year at all. Needed to see a lot more. Rundblad, I'm not as disappointed in. Both are stuck on teams deep at D.

In your opinion, how do you rank these players for production next season. Im mostly looking for points, but its for team 1 in my sig. I'll probably use the bottom 2 as trade bait

Wheeler
Filppula
Burrows
Michalek
C. Stewart

Thanks

That's the order. Though personally I like Stewart over Michalek in keepers...just needs a new team.

Thanks Dobber!

Schultz! Take Schultz!

I have to choose between, J. Carter, M. Hossa or Pacioretty or Neuvirth for my final keeper. Tough call....

Position does not really matters because we have 2 UTIL spots. At this point, I am leaning toward Hossa but his injury scares me a little bit.

What are your thoughts on this.

Thanks in advance.

That is very tough. I think I'd go with Carter. Clean slate next year
