Poni - Grabovski - Kuemin [u][/u] Hagman - Mitchell - Tlusty Kaberle - Komisarek Beauchemin - Schenn - Ian Sat, 25 Jul 2009 13:32:46 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/russ-miller/2122-top-shelf-eastern-talent-part-2-of-3#comment-399 These columns are great! Foligno really makes me wonder whether he could be a great sleeper. Any additional analysis! I know he wouldn't get alot of PP time (Kovy, Alf, Spez, Kuba), but is a top 6 as you mentioned. Maybe a great sleeper this year? Great oppertunity as I see him a top 9 on a deeper club. - bluejays Fri, 24 Jul 2009 08:58:10 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/russ-miller/2122-top-shelf-eastern-talent-part-2-of-3#comment-395 Parise - Zajac - Langenbrunner had great chemistry last season, and Elias as the go-to-guy on his own line. Despite a coaching change I'm not sure why they would alter that top unit. Just my 2 cents. - Mackie Fri, 24 Jul 2009 05:36:12 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/russ-miller/2122-top-shelf-eastern-talent-part-2-of-3#comment-389 Where to start! No way Sergei (although I really like him) beats out Max IMO. Spacek/Markov to run PP. Correct on NJ, however Lang with the young guys. All this NYI talk. Which tandem would you rather have Duch-Stasney or Bailey-Tav? - bluejays Thu, 23 Jul 2009 13:50:07 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/russ-miller/2122-top-shelf-eastern-talent-part-2-of-3#comment-388 Fair enough Donny. I suspect you are right about Weber not making the cut this year. I got carried away there for a second, blurring fantasy roster versus NHL roster, especially considering it's now a Jacques Martin coached team. Safety first. If Weber has a great camp, then he has an outside shot at sticking in the top seven, but realistically Markov and Spacek will run the PP, Mara and Hamrlik are capbable offensively and Gill/Gorges certainly round out the top six on paper nicely. - The Comish Thu, 23 Jul 2009 12:45:41 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/russ-miller/2122-top-shelf-eastern-talent-part-2-of-3#comment-387 I'll be honest, I don't know how strong a centre Tavares is. If he is better suited as a winger in the NHL, then great, but everywhere I looked, they list him as centre. If Tavares stays at centre, then it's pretty easy to envision a Tavares-Bailey, one-two punch down the middle and with Doug Weight's age and injury history, it could happen as soon as this season. - The Comish Thu, 23 Jul 2009 12:39:34 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/russ-miller/2122-top-shelf-eastern-talent-part-2-of-3#comment-386 I think Bailey will center the Isles top line with Tavares moving to wing. - Mark Faber Thu, 23 Jul 2009 11:21:15 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/russ-miller/2122-top-shelf-eastern-talent-part-2-of-3#comment-384 I'm really enjoying this series. Thanks! Where do you see Josh Bailey fitting in on the Islanders? - swolfe Thu, 23 Jul 2009 10:00:03 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/russ-miller/2122-top-shelf-eastern-talent-part-2-of-3#comment-383 I dont' agree with your top line for New Jersey. Parise-Zajac-Langenbrunner had great chemistry last year, so I dont' see why they would break that up. - r22yu Thu, 23 Jul 2009 09:59:32 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/russ-miller/2122-top-shelf-eastern-talent-part-2-of-3#comment-380 Nice! I like seeing Avery on that top line with Gaborlick... - tradejunkie Thu, 23 Jul 2009 09:05:53 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/russ-miller/2122-top-shelf-eastern-talent-part-2-of-3#comment-379 I don't see Weber cracking Montreal's line-up unless they have problems on the powerplay. They have Gill, Gorges and O'Byrne all competing for the last 2 spots. - Donny Thu, 23 Jul 2009 08:43:14 +0100
