We just need better D here in Ottawa, that's all. Dobber, one question I have for you is this: Will Brian Lee ever pan out? - Babalou Mon, 09 Nov 2009 09:32:07 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/darryl-dobbs/2351-fantasy-hockey-quick-shots#comment-2443 Babalou - that's interesting and I'll take your word for it. I haven't seen all the games, only two OTT games. But how confident you feel when the opposition rushes into the zone is a great reflection on who is the better goaltender and your point about Elliott not giving you confidence bears weight for sure. His numbers though, prior to that blowout, were pretty solid though, I will say that. - Dobber Mon, 09 Nov 2009 06:32:29 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/darryl-dobbs/2351-fantasy-hockey-quick-shots#comment-2436 Dobber, No doubt that Leclaire's GAA will rise away from Columbus and he will be less likely to post shutouts. Moving to Ottawa probably means fewer wins as a starter, but more than he'd get in Columbus splitting duties with Mason or serving as a backup. I've never doubted Leclaire's ability, only his commitment to conditioning (now resolved) and his ability to stay healthy (still a question mark). I know that Justin Goldman thinks that Leclaire's knee injury a few years back will pose a problem for him, but if I still owned Leclaire, I would be more concerned with his ankle injury last year. He had his best NHL season after his knee injury. I agree that such injuries can be detrimental to a goalie, but I think he showed he had recovered from that. One of the hallmarks of Leclaire's game is his post-to-post quickness and I wonder how much that ankle injury sapped some of that quickness. If it does rob him of that, and he doesn't make adjustments to his playing style, he could struggle. I haven't had a chance watch him much this year -- heck, who's kidding who, I can't stand to watch Ottawa -- so I'm not sure how he looks compared to two years ago. Regardless, I think Elliott is an excellent prospect and will eventually push Leclaire for the No. 1 spot or play well enough in the No. 1 spot if Leclaire gets injured that Leclaire will be hard-pressed to win the job back. - Scribe Mon, 09 Nov 2009 03:54:35 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/darryl-dobbs/2351-fantasy-hockey-quick-shots#comment-2434 what knee injury? the 6 games he missed early in 06/07 when he still produced 37 goals? since then he has had a few short term UBI that caused him to miss 13 games in 07/08 and 16 in 08/09 and some of those misses were healthy scratches i believe, he was never a speedster but previously showed a great quick release, good touch around the net- now he just looks disinterested. Unless hes so out of shape now he just doesnt care-but his effort is sadly lacking. - Larry Sun, 08 Nov 2009 20:34:09 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/darryl-dobbs/2351-fantasy-hockey-quick-shots#comment-2433 I watch every Sens game, in no way is Elliot otuplaying Leclaire. I have confidence in Leclaire more than Elliot. I think Cheechoo can score some goals if they put him in front of the net on the PP. - Babalou Sun, 08 Nov 2009 18:35:06 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/darryl-dobbs/2351-fantasy-hockey-quick-shots#comment-2432 Scribe - okay. Just an early thought, is all. Elliott is still outplaying him. - Dobber Sun, 08 Nov 2009 18:01:46 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/darryl-dobbs/2351-fantasy-hockey-quick-shots#comment-2431 you can blame it on injuries. He can't skate anymore. Never was a blazer on the ice but he used his speed effectively. Knee injuries have ruined that. - Jeff Angus Sun, 08 Nov 2009 16:44:55 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/darryl-dobbs/2351-fantasy-hockey-quick-shots#comment-2430 Has there been a bigger dropoff in value than Cheechoo the last decade? You cant blame age,injuries or playing on a defense-first team. He may be the biggest dud since Jimmy Carson.Even Yashin and Bonk were capable of the odd goal or in Bonks case-decent defensive work. Patrick Stefan was another dud- but he never really panned out. - Larry Sun, 08 Nov 2009 16:13:19 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/darryl-dobbs/2351-fantasy-hockey-quick-shots#comment-2429 Leclaire exposed? What about Mason and his 3.27 GAA and .891 save percentage [i][b]in[/b][/i] a Hitchcock system? I think your comment on Leclaire is premature. Let's get a bigger sample size than 11 games, shall we. - Scribe Sun, 08 Nov 2009 15:39:48 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/darryl-dobbs/2351-fantasy-hockey-quick-shots#comment-2428 Any clue why Paul Kariya's Powerplay time has gone down so much so fast? At the beginning of the season he was on the first unit and, in the games I saw, doing quite well. Now he's getting less than a minute per game. Last season, in the few games he played, most of his points were on the PP. Can he return to form without powerplay time and what's Andy Murray doing not playing him anyway? - Mack Gordon Sun, 08 Nov 2009 15:15:15 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/darryl-dobbs/2351-fantasy-hockey-quick-shots#comment-2427 Counterpoint to your JvR comment, the only other flyers' rookies to ever match his production through this stage of their rookie seasons are named Barber and Propp.....:P - Rusty Pickles Sun, 08 Nov 2009 14:56:57 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/darryl-dobbs/2351-fantasy-hockey-quick-shots#comment-2426 hahahaha that cheechoo comment was awesome, great way to finish an article - noglovenolove Sun, 08 Nov 2009 12:12:46 +0100
