hah some canucks fan chirpin my blogs - apparently nothing ive written has helped him in any which way.



I find these posts so absurdly directed at one reader, the kind that is in your pool, it's hard to take away any sort of relevant insight regarding fantasy hockey at all.

Something like draft strategy takes so many considerations, for example pool size, stats weighting, pool type even. Everything just seems to be completely glossed over.


apparently i should be covering every aspect of every fantasy pool ever made in the history of time.

maybe he does pools that they have mouthguard in sideways per minute/week and versteeg was his #1 pick, i dunno!

Just put him on waivers for the Marlies. Other teams are busy demoting their own AHL caliber players.

He will get claimed. Might as well get a 4th or 5th for him.
Leafs have done a good job with late round picks lately, so why not?

i don't mean that as an insult... Colborne was pretty useful in Calgary last year

I barely noticed him in any of the games I watched. 10 goals and 28 points is nothing special.

We are expecting more from Holland than 4th line energy player

Habs, Canucks and Bruins. I hate their teams and there fans are all annoying.

Meh, Habs fans are us if we lived in Montreal.

Carlyle said frattin was mediocre but i can see him being the extra guy in the press box if he does not impress in his last preseason game. Nylander looks like a pro, his only problem seems to be finishing when he shoots or has excellent scoring opportunities. Leivo looks to be leading the prospect group in pts, so hope he has one final strong preseason game to get him fully injected into the lineup.

Dont care if we lost last game, Nylander looks amazing out there, his passes are smooth and completed without hesitation, looks like he already fits in with the team

Let's not get carried away here. He has the right tools, undeniable talent, but his play without the puck and in tight are huge question marks right now. And 82 games? I'd rather not burn an ELC year having him risk getting crushed out there and wallowing at the bottom of the depth chart.

I'd rather just put our best available players out there and not worry about contract stuff for the next 2 years.

Then you don't have to worry about it then, because he won't be the best available over an 82 game season.

Fair enough..

I still think it's hard to say yet. A 9 game stint would give the leafs an idea of where he's at. It wouldn't hurt.
