He got robbed
- LeftCoaster

No offense, but I think he got better value than you did for your stars

His team is very young too... not going to get worse

- SMP8719

Yea, he's done a nice job

His depth sucks, unless he trades one of his four big-guns for some depth he's doomed....doomed I tell ya
- LeftCoaster

Not gonna happen, there's about 4-5 teams that could trade for one. I'd want two younger established stars in return as part of the deal.

Soo, I wonder why Jenen's playing over Horvat? Might as well get Bo his 9 games at least instead of having him miss games. Only reason I see is they wanted a RW'er instead of playing a LW or C out of position?

It's funny how some guys in the pool are trading for 4-5 years down the round. I don't get the point of that. I want to win every year, makes no sense to trade for guys like Draisatl, Horvat, Barkov etc... Going to be years before they produce.

1040 just suggested that they get a good look at Jensen while he is up and they don't seem to be in a rush to make a decision on Horvat. Makes sense I guess if you believe that the Cancuks are trying to delay the Bo decision until after WJC.

I kind of wish there would be like a free for all Friday every week on this site..like the HB purge
- Nucker101

That would be awesome. One day we don't get banned or one thread where anything goes. It'd be the funniest thing since politics.

Worst thing for his development is barely playing and getting scratched. Let him play the WJHC and go on another playoff run in London.

But he "brings it every night and has the size we need"

yeah you can remain competitive with a couple guys like that but not multiples of guys like that.

That just seems like a waste of games he could be playing to me, but Trev talked to a basketball GM so he must know what he's doing

He traded Perry and Parise for Kassian, Monahan and Trouba.

Perry alone is worth that plus draft picks.

One guy has his whole team as prospects and rookies. It's hilarious.

My team is stacked with studs. If I get a goalie I'll win the pool easily.

I drafted Perry and traded him for Bishop and Skinner.

I would trade Enroth for a young scoring Fwd if anyone is interested.

poop I didn't know Brandon Prust was better than Draisaitl

How many hits and pims does Draisailt have?

Fair point, but you'd be better served with a player who could get hits PIMS and points. Seems like a wasted roster spot to me having guys whose sole purpose are hits/PIMS. A balanced D corps could do that

Yeah but having a team full of (3-4) prospects you may not get the ice time to get the stats you want and need.

Edit: to be honest I don't know what stats you guys are using for pts.

That is why players that play a physical game and score are worth that much more.

In a league this deep I don't think it's a huge concern unless the rest of your team is poopty. I have 3 non-active players on my roster and several more of my players are in their first season, but most weeks I'm pretty competitive in player categories. Goaltending is a bigger issue
Edit: 6 stats are related to points

Shea Weber is an absolute hero in this league

Corey Perry trade is interesting. I could rage, but i wont.

No offense, but I think he got better value than you did for your stars
- Nucker101

it's a fantasy league - I don't get too worked up about it. It's hard to get value because guys all want stupid returns for star players. Rinks wanted Toews or Johansen for Mason from Philly

Yea I clearly missed the boat on extortion for a starting goaltender
Can't complain with Lehtera though
