I have been a big fan of his since junior and still am. Unfortunately, I do not get to see him play very often. Is production has been very slow since he returned from his injury (concussion).

Is this only temporary? Is it sophomore jinx? Should I be worried that he will never be the same and cut my losses now?

So I take it we are suppose to guess who DD is? Judging by your signature I assume Drew Doughty...nothing is wrong with him, he's an awesome Dman.

You know that he is only 21 years old...Right. Let me ask you this and every other "GM" who love to give up or sell as low as possable on "Elite" Players...... Do you think that after 21 years of success that DD woke up 1 morning and totally forgot how to play Hockey??? Or is it maybe a couple of minor injuries are slowing him down a little and he working his way back to his elite level???? I'll put my money on the latter!!! But if you want to make another GM in your league very happy and make your team a lot worse then go ahead and drop him in your keeper league!!!

Sorry ddp, I should have made it cleaar that DD stood for Drew Doughty...and how many DD do you know that it is whorth discussing about....

I know that he had some conditioning and motivational issues when playing junior and I just hope that he didn't revert to the «least effort» mentality.

I know a DD that's worth talking about, but it has more to do with those racy avatar pictures than fantasy hockey

I'll try to catch a couple kings games again and get back here unless someone who watches them alot pipes up. I was watching them alot earlier this season and Doughty was a beast covering the entire rink, not sure if he's still playing like that after his concussion.

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

Nothing he will be fine and is still one of the best D in the game! Just like Kieth is still a top D man you cant score all your points in the 2 months of the season. In baseball the sluggers hit most of their HR's in 25% of the year the same can be said for the top scores in hockey they will catch fire for stretches then slow down for others hang in there!!

I immediately thought Devon Dubunyk.

Anyway, I would not be too worried about Doughty...that kid is awesome. The pts will come.

Dont worry man,

Drew Doughty equals Game Breaker and you're bound to be sorry you ever thought of getting rid of him

Doughty is fine. He is still logging huge minutes every game (27:27, 26:41 and 26:26 in his last 3 games). His stats will come.

Rylant

If you've got Devon Duunyk playing defence for you you better cut bait.....But we are obviously talking about Drew Doughty.

The biggest thing you have to worry about with Drew Doughty is hanging on to him. Don't sell low, because I imagine the vultures are circling.....
