Thank you Lucas. pretty fair predictions Most people would say you are high with Weal at 48 but if he can make top six or regular pp he can do it.

I'm really hoping Wennberg flies under the radar. He's underrated on yahoo's ranking of players. 59 points last year, and now he and the team are a year older, with Panarin.
BINGO!

Werenski is also a candidate for sophmore slump. I think McCavoy is going to be really good.

Yeah, Werenski had 15 points in his first 20 games. Not sure he'll be able to keep that level of production up. He also had almost half his production on the PP.

Noticed that he had 1.5x as may giveaways as he had takeaways last season. Can't keep those kinds of numbers up and not get burned.

Yeah I've taken that into consideration, I think he's going to have a good season, even if third line he could be with Nolan - so there is a good chance he does well

Wennberg is going to produce 60+

this is also why I have Werenski going up in value - the addition of Panarin and even the emergence of Bjorkstrand

it's possible but I think Faulk is going to hog that first PP unit position where most of your PPP are going to come from

Should I do this trade? Not a keeper league:

Jake Guentzel
Corey Crawford for

Claude Giroux
John Gibson.

I get Giroux and Gibson. Not a huge fan of Giroux and Guentzel is a C/LW, but I feel like it's a good trade for me. Should I do it?
BINGO!

He will, but Hanifin locked up 29 points playing 3rd pairing minutes last year.

This year he;ll get closer to 20 minutes per night with Faulk, rather than 16 playing with Murphy/Dahlbeck/Tennyson
