Basically will he be on the PP? He will produce as he will be on the PP (potentially with Weber)...although you never know as age gets up. Really though, I don't see him being replaced on the #1 PP unless someone like Beaulieu steps up offensively.

evrydayimbyfuglien 600 Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Hey, guys, I have my dynasty league draft this weekend. Any players I should keep an eye out for? Basically anyone under 25 with less than 25 NHL games played, NCAA free agents and new draftees included so guys like Matthews, Laine, etc. are all in it but I pick 12th and 15th so I need someone outside of the big names...

Vessey maybe? I'm kinda surprised he signed in New York but he actually may flourish there honestly, given that he gets enough ice time. But I have a feeling he's at least playing top nine.

Also why are we dragging Ghost down with MacDonald I don't think he's going to make the team out of camp because Hextall is conservative with prospects. Ghost goes with MacDonald because no one else besides Gudas can play the top minutes with MDZ, Streit is old, and I don't think they'd do a Provorov-Ghost pairing to start out.

Kesler 1,514 Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Canucks roster: Sedin Sedin Eriksson Baertschi Horvat Rodin Etem Sutter Hansen Burrows Granlund Dorsett/Gaunce Edler Tanev Hutton Gudbranson Tryamkin Larsen Sbisa Markstrom Miller Goaltending is going to be the strong suite along with depth at both forward and defense. Certainly a lot of question marks but theres no doubt this team is better than last seasons.

That roster made the playoffs last season minus Del Zotto, and with scrub Manning in rather than Provorov. I can see a late round playoff seed again.

My earlier prediction for the Flyers is: Schenn - Giroux - Simmonds Raffl - Couturier - Voracek Laughton - Cousins - Weiss PEB - Gordon - Read Del Zotto - Gudas Ghost - MacDonald Provorov - Streit Mason Neuvirth Curious to see if Neuvirth pushes Mason out of starting position or if they share the load. Always felt he was underrated with us since he had to play behind Varly and then Holtby, and he was good for you guys last season. Anyway onto the Caps likely president trophy winning second round exiting roster. Ovechkin - Backstrom - Oshie Burakovsky - Kuznetsov - Williams Johansson - Eller - Connolly Winnik - Beagle - Wilson Alzner/Niskanen Carlson/Schmidt Orpik/Bowey Holtby Grubbuauer Not many question marks and a few of the AHL guys could see time over Connolly and Winnik. Gailev and Latta have more NHL games but Vrana seems determined to play up, and Wilson may finally take that next step towards becoming a top nine power forward. Orlov still isn't signed and rumours are he may go to KHL. However Bowey, or Chorney will likely fill that spot unless we sign another veteran D. Still one of the best forward crops in the league and Niskanen/Alzner are one of the most underrated D pairings going. Holt's is still a beast, and I suppose anything can happen in the playoffs so there is still hope.

But its hard to blame them when they can make alot of money playing back at home. but I mean he wasn't getting prime PP minutes and ice time and obviously theres that issue with Ruff so I mean this could be a good move for him to get the ice time he needs to mature.

Fire Tortorella 2,653 Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 He should have stayed in the KHL after being drafted IMO. Better to play top 6 minutes and PP in the KHL than bottom 6 minutes in the NHL.

Yeah but another thing was that he wasn't playing a 200 foot game. Thats fine not to play it if you are Tarasenko and have the goal scoring ability of Brett Hull, but for Valeri he was not the best skater so he can't rely solely on offensive ability.

When I think of Valeri I think of someone who skates fast and in a straight line and goes to the net hard, has he changed his game over the past couple seasons?

Lacks a 200 Foot game. Meaning he doesn't play defense. In the NHL now you have to be able to play in both ends, which is something the Stars forum had said. He could skate like the wind, but if he can't play defense Ruff would have an issue.
