agreed, i picked him 2nd overall in the draft even though i wanted to go with a fwd. but should i use him to fetch fwd talent? or build around him? judging by ur stacked lineup you seem to really know what ur doing..

I would hang on to Faulk and see how he progresses.

Unrelated, but I would be curious to see who's available on the wire in your pool. Some of your forwards look like they could be replaced in a 16 team league.

i agree, i'd be willing to replace almost all of them, lol i'm currently in last place and i have 8 players injured so it's not lookin too good. i'm hoping to get some good pieces from guys who want to up their playoff chances..

I don't like your chances this year. Look towards the future and build around Tavares, Bjugstad and Faulk. You have some decent complementary players in Okposo, Giordano and Smith. Everyone else on your roster is expendable. With 15 protections you can take a flyer on a # of young players and hope some of them pan out. Good luck.
