I was reading that he had top minutes over Whitney and Gilbert last night among D. Can anyone comment whether he is now the #1 PP QB? That would mean he's a pretty valuable pick up.

Just for shits and giggles, thought I'd add a poll.

I didn't get to watch the game last night, but Whitney has been our BEST defenceman during the 7 games i did watch.

#- denotes number of years I have kept a player.

I'd want Ryan Whitney also. Second is Gilbert. Bronze goes to Foster.

Is that everything?

Whitney had less PP time and less TOI in general because he fought Stuart in the 2nd and was given a 10 minute misconduct. He didn't return until the 3rd period and missed a PP or two.

Whitney is clearly the choice here.

Foster has been alright but other than his shot I'm not too impressed with his offensive abilities.

It's a damn shame Foster left that Tampa Bay PP. He had something like 40 points in 50 games while playing on it last season.

I like Whitney as well. He has more offensive instinct than Foster and is a better passer. Foster's main value comes on the PP only. He has been playing well lately but Whitney is superior.

It's Whitney for me as well.

Surprised the other guys got as many votes as they did.

Anyone voting for Gilbert over Foster hasn't been watching the same Oilers games that I have been...
From what I've seen, Foster is even better than Whitney.
Gilbert is a hack!
