You got a special 'made for Lemon' cocktail. Congrats - as Gordie Howe said when he was relentlessly booed everytime he played in Chicago - Wow, such recognition!" Generally poolies know only a portion of the real situation with a pro player in any sport. I have reason to know this is true. To go either way on Gaborik that he will be different (improved) healthwise or things won't change is based on not knowing for sure. I think your conclusion is bang on - drafting or acqwuiring Gaborik is a risk based on his history. To say we can predict that he will either an injury free or injury riddled season is based on nothing but air. - Rick Wakeman Wed, 30 Sep 2009 20:03:14 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/columnistsarticles-mainmenu-77/17-archives-other-articles/2266-everything-you-need-to-know-about-marian-gaborik#comment-1660 Way to go, Captain Obvious. Great common sense article with absolutely nothing that we havent already known. Gee, drafting Gaborik is risky business? Ground breaking! - NYR9394 Wed, 30 Sep 2009 13:13:07 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/columnistsarticles-mainmenu-77/17-archives-other-articles/2266-everything-you-need-to-know-about-marian-gaborik#comment-1652 Nice article. Good insight and breakdown. I think Gaborik has something to prove to us, to regain trust in fantasy circles. Until then, I won't touch him. - Johnny Boston Wed, 30 Sep 2009 10:20:54 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/columnistsarticles-mainmenu-77/17-archives-other-articles/2266-everything-you-need-to-know-about-marian-gaborik#comment-1648 Anyone who suggests that this year is somehow different from past years is either uninformed or dishonest....you probably shouldn't make comments like that unless you are 100% sure, they make you look less smart than you actually are. That's a pretty good piece of info about the NY trainer. Look at the Flyers, constant major injuries, there has to be something more to it than the player....Lindros, Gagne, Briere, Richards, Lupul, Nittymaki, Primeau. - SuperOne Wed, 30 Sep 2009 09:00:34 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/columnistsarticles-mainmenu-77/17-archives-other-articles/2266-everything-you-need-to-know-about-marian-gaborik#comment-1646 Good point about the ice, Puckhead. Of course, the flip-side to that argument is he now has the best athletic trainer in hockey working on him (there's a reason Jim Ramsay is often Team Canada's Head Athletic Trainer at international competitions, including the upcoming 2010 Olympics in Vancouver). Remember, the Rangers as a team only missed a ridiculously low 31 games due to injury or illness last year, and they were skating on that same horrible ice. - rticinelli Wed, 30 Sep 2009 08:19:21 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/columnistsarticles-mainmenu-77/17-archives-other-articles/2266-everything-you-need-to-know-about-marian-gaborik#comment-1642 good point there about MSG and bad ice. Not to mention the fact he's gonna see a bruising Philadelphia team more than once every couple of years now (more like once every few games) - vulcanized rubber Wed, 30 Sep 2009 07:05:30 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/columnistsarticles-mainmenu-77/17-archives-other-articles/2266-everything-you-need-to-know-about-marian-gaborik#comment-1641 I don't see how any rationale thinking fantasy poolie, (er wait, that is an oxy-moron isn't it), can think this year will be different is delusional at best. We are talking about a guy with a bum hammy, who is now playing on the worst ice in the league...that my friends, is a recipe for DISASTER, and nothing more. People want to talk to me about risk/reward, the reward is doesn't even enter the equation. If you feel your team is in a position to contend, steer clear of Gaborik.
