Yeah, his points tonight forced my hand in my 15 team salary cap league. Kind of an easy swap as all I had to do was drop Hillen (limited keeper, so neither are likely keepers).

One additional point that hasn't been brought up yet, is that in his final season of junior, he had 58 points in 65 QMJHL games.

Awesome. Now we have one of "the brass" weighing in - definitely an interesting run by an increasingly interesting young dman.

"It's such a fine line between stupid, and clever."

I hope you all listened to me ramble about this guy for the past few months.

Hockey sense trumps all - he is simply a very 'heady' player.

I just dropped Andy Greene for him in my sal cap roto keeper. I figure it can't get much worse right? Angus has been mentioning him and he is still young. Another 26 year old D breakout?

It's no coincidence that the Isles are winning now that he's back in the lineup. He's been a diamond in the ruff for a team that's desperate for someone to step up. It show how confident they are in him to trade away the Wiz. Not sure how it will play out when Okposo and Streit come back since both play the point on the 1st pp unit. But that could change under the new coach.

Might have value in a 1 yr league. However, not much in a keeper.

I'd argue he has even more value long-term.

Who's the better play in a points only league for this year, MacDonald or Paul Martin? I was ready to make the switch then saw that Martin is still getting significant PP time in Pittsburgh, even if he hasn't done anything with it for 2 months or so.

I don't think I'd drop Martin for him. Too much opportunity for him in Pitt.
