Answer 1

Man, how many teams in your league? The only Blue chippers you have are Ovechkin and Kiprusoff.

Your forwards are not a bad bunch, but you better hope Johnson's a stud. If he can't bail out your D, it could be a long year. Campbell's stats will depend on how the team comes together in the absence of Drury and Briere. Poti might put up some points if he gets pp time, but he's a risk. Phillips is a fantasy dud.

Assuming the Lidstroms, Prongers and Sourays of the world are taken, have you looked at some good power play point guys like A. Markov, Liles or Visnovsky to replace Phillips? Even Corvo or Pitkanen would be a better option.

Answer 2

How many teams in the league? If it's a public league, then I like your forwards. Your defense is crap, though. Cambell will be good, but Poti and Phillips won't do much, and Johnson is a big question mark. Kipper is great, but your two backup goalies are iffy. I doubt you'll find someone better on the waiver wire. I suggest dangling Sedin out there for a better defenseman or backup goalie. Cole will fill his spot fine, and you need the defense more than the scoring with this team. Good luck!

Answer 3

If I was in your shoes I'd move my best guy and worst player for two players of decent production quality. There's always someone out there that will overpay for a superstar like Ovechkin. Do not do a two for one. It messes with the roster bad. Always find a way to trade even numbers of players. Honestly, I've had a couple of trades that were cancelled when the other guy didn't set up to drop a player when it was two for one.

Answer 4

Your Offence and Defence needsoem serious tweaking.

Maybe drop Richards, Jokinen or pomminville.


It depends whos available right now.
