I see it this way: Reinhart should only be in if hes playing 3rd line center or 3rd line RW. Third line RW is pretty much already locked down by either Gionta or Mcginn. So really in my opinion its either 3rd line center or rochester for reinhart. If hes not ready hes not ready

I'm playing in my first fantasy hockey league this year. Hits count a point. Does anyone have any quick tips for drafting?

yeah, but Niemi is ELITE!

I think the guy was trying to exploit the fact that I have Lehtonen. We can start 2 goalies a night so I currently have 5.

Hiller
Holtby
Luongo
Anderson
Lehtonen

Holtby is the one that I'm guaranteed to get the most games out of for the most part, so why in god's name would I trade him? This guy is so smart that when he types things out in the message board, he uses comma's where apostrophe's are supposed to be.

kane ROR ennis
moulson eichel girgenson
mcginn reinhart gionta
larrson, delorian, foligno, legwand

but thats just me..

Reinhart or Larsson is the extra forward. And Reinhart should never be an extra forward. I don't think Larsson can be sent down. So that leaves Reinhart as the extra. Not sure what the plan is here, but there's a chance he starts the season in Rochester. #1 call up for anyone in the top 9. What happens with him is anyone's guess.

OR. Legwand is the extra and Larsson takes 4th line and Reinhart 3rd line. But I'm not sure I see that happening.

I personally hope he stays.

Snag Wingels and Orpik in the later rounds of the draft. They are MONEY in hit leagues. Expecially because Wingels can put up a respectable amount of points.

Wingels absolutely. Shots, hits, blocks, 2nd powerplay, good for 45-55 points. Solid late rounder or waiver pick up. He's always been a waiver guy in our league. If you're an 8 or 10 man league he probably won't even get drafted. So you can use your last pick on him or Abdelkader.

This is exactly my line up with one switch-

I think Reinhart will be more effective in a second line role, so I would flip him and Zemgus from where you have them.

Bylsma said so far, he's liked Reinhart better on the wing.

The person who currently owns the building is over $90 million in debt with the lender. They said you could actually see the lender keep the building themselves and then sell it for a much higher amount than they'd get at auction (it was way more complex than that, but I'm paraphrasing).
