Forget Murray

Stick with my boi Zherdev

Narayan - ya gotta be with the Radman - total slamdunk for a keeper or just for this year - if they are close this year I will be surprised but it could happen - the thing is Radulov\'s upside over Murray is not a small number in fantasy hockey terms.

HUH? I am not sure where Radulov figures into this but as for the Q.....Murray or Zherdev. Tough one. I am a big Murray fan and when he is on he can snipe with the best of them. He may have lost a bit in the wheels department but he can still get in position to bury them. Zherdev is more of a tease and can show glipses of turning the corner, like last night for example. I even have a Zherdev CSKA jersey, though that is as much for the 13 than it is for Zherdev. It would be nice if he keeps up the progress to being a go-to guy with Columbus. I would go Murray for this season but anything beyond that I think you have to go Zherdev and hope he is for real.

Zherdev is playing very well and Hitchcock seems to have his head right. As well as he is playing, he will be inconsistent. Last night, all over the place. The six games before, he played well but Hitch asked him to play more of a non-scoring role on lines with Chimera and Malhotra etc. It appears his fantasy value will fluctuate with Hitchcock\'s matchup thinking even if he is playing consistently well.

Murray is older and will gain a little steam as he is midseason. He will provide little upside and little risk at this stage but depending on your situation, that may be what you need.

If you dont need a sure thing mediocre player to fill your roster for the stretch run, then I would gamble on Zherdev.
