I'm just wondering if you can give me some advice on how I can gain some ground in the standings. I fluctuate between 2-3rd place. I am almost dead last in the PPG and SHG categories but am at or near the top for most others. If I get even one SHG I will certainly gain big points so they are definitely the rarest.

Aside from a quick visual audit of my team, any body that you recommend me moving/trading etc? This is a keep 10 pool.

Cheers

What would it take to land Josh Bailey? Waivers? A trade? Kick tires and see what the cost is. All you need is to keep him active for three or four weeks until he gets you another SH goal (or two, if you're lucky). He'll get some SHG within a couple of months, plus I think he'll be a lot more consistent going forward.

I dont think I can do the 2nd deal until I have another goalie.

oh.. another one.. voracek for C schneider and a 1st in 2011 (likely top 5 pick)
I like those last two deals a lot. Who cares about another goalie if you land OV, trade for one later!

Bailey? Just plucked him off waivers.

thanks Dobbs and Merry Christmas to you and the crew!

Merry Christmas Dobbs,

1 year league all stats are counted. I have to make room for Hossa coming off the IR, would you drop Clarkson or Stralman. Considering my RW now is Carter, Cleary, Little and Clarkson and my D is Green, Doughty, Gonchar, Suter and Stralman. I'm torn, I feel like both of them could have a decent 2nd half.

A switch is going to flipped at some point - next week? Next month? - and when that happens I think he'll rattle off dizzying numbers.
Visnovsky is a proven d-man, but he gets hurt too much for my liking, so to get JV for Pommer as the other half of this deal evens it up.
Thanlks dobber. It looks like we are on the same page. I offered pommy and subban for voracek and visnovsky earlier in the week. The owner wanted a player with more upside than pommy. I thought it was fair and now I am left trying to figure out something that makes us both happy. I think I am paying too much and taking too big of a risk dealing Subban if I included zajac instad of pominville but it would probably get it done

Thanks again.
Merry Christmas to you and your family

With Lemaire back I would drop Stralman

Merry Christmas Dobber and thanks for doing this.

I'm currently in 2nd by about 140 points (league stats and my team in sig)... in a good week a team can get about 90-120 points but on average your looking at 70-80 points.

So I'm gonna go for it and try to catch him... but my question to you is who from my team would you keep at the end of the year (must keep 9) is there someone on my roster you would sell high or just walk away from?
Thanks!

Keep Sid, Geno, Giroux, Duchene, Shattenkirk, Luongo, Fleury, Zetterberg, Nash. Then focus on defensemen in the draft. Or you can trade Nash for a top defenseman. Weber is another name that is overrated as opposed to actual production. Those are two good names right there.
