yes he is. but still, Give me Stamkos.

I'd take Stamkos too but it's real close

Tavares is my 3rd choice

 

[dmxfury]

Stamkos as the MVP or in general as a player on your team?

No I meant on my team

Crosby is no doubt the MVP as of today

 

[theenorthstar]

I love Stammer but if i were first in a fantasy draft and there is a healthy Sidney Crosby.. I couldnt pass on him.

I firmly believe hes the best in the world. He always has been even through the injuries.

 

[champcruthik]

Kaner, Getzlaf, or Eric Staal in consideration?

Tavares has sick hands.

 

[stillin729]

Give me Stamkos with Giroux

Hell score 80 goals

I can dream

Kaner, Getzlaf, or Eric Staal in consideration?

Tavares has sick hands.

You'd be a better man than me if you even consider taking Getzlaf and Eric Staal in the top 10. Even top 15 if we have Goalies and Defense-men in the conversation.

Kane.. Ehhh.. Yeah. Hes hovering around Top 10. If we are talking forwards.

i think kane top 10 is pushing it a bit...he's not there yet

 

[proshares]

If Staal isn't near the top 10 then I don't think Kane is either.

 

[theenorthstar]

You know what.. Youre right. Im short changing Staal a bit.

I think im mesmerized by how Kane has been playing this year. And i just saw that Staal has 30 pts as well this season. QUIETLY.

Changed my mind. I would take Eric over Kane. Still not top . Not Getzlaf though.

Edit: Im short changing Staals body of work throughouthis career.

 

[champcruthik]

Eric Staal's body of work in Carolina is under appreciated by many.

How high are you guys on Malkin, and how low on Ovie?

i like geno a TON. very high on him. i think he's top 3 (although he's been down a bit this year).

as for AO...i'm not as low as most on him. part of it is his team i think. would love to see him play somewhere else.

 

[stillin729]

Ovechkin is never gonna get back IMO which is a shame bc I like him

Staal is a great ALL AROUND player

 

[jjs07]

Ovechkin was actually playing some great hockey up until this weekend. Like most elite goal-scorers, they hit a wall at some point in their careers. I don't think Ovechkin will sniff 50 or 60 goals again, I do think he'll be a perennial 35-40 goal scorer in a full season.

Team is RIDICULOUSLY flawed. It's a problem when you have guys like Matt Hendricks and Jason Chimera skating in your top-6. That falls on George McPhee. What I think is gonna happen is this team will be sellers at the trade deadline. As much as I like Ribeiro, I think he'll be moved for depth. They are pretty much gonna tank this year until Forsberg/Kuznetsov are ready to go.

I skimmed this page, and will read it thoroughly after I post this

But, anyone who would take KANE over ERIC STAAL is out of their freakin' mind. That goes the same for taking Kane over Getzlaf.....

I'm taking Crosby over Stamkos 101 times out of 100 with no hesitation. Stammer is 2nd no doubt though.

 

[DeadsetAce]

bruins gut out a come from behind shootout win...very nice

bad news is chris kelly looks to be done for some time

 

[dmxfury]

Have a game tonight so I'll miss most tonight, hope the Pens just stay healthy and get a point


Terrible goal given up by Wash there

 

[david bowman]

any buffalo fans watching?

 

[DeadsetAce]

any buffalo fans watching?

good one















kidding...i think fraij likes the sabres...right?

 

[david bowman]

 Henrik made two nice saves

 

[dmxfury]

Can't put that on MAF. Both tough goals really. Gad I'm leaving

 

[fraij da 5 11]

any buffalo fans watching?

good one



 

 

[champcruthik]

At least Vanek, Pom, and Ennis are fun to watch?

 

[duba169]

Both goalies in the new York buffalo game are committing routine robbery.

And as I say that buffalo scores

Legoooo
