With all the new trades gained because of the allstar break, their should be lots of movement today...

Nabokov > Burke
Modin > Gagné
Savard > Sundin

We can expect, an Atlanta drop and a Souray drop today !

Yup. I wanted to pick up Chiodo for my Basic Pens team. 0 TSNP in his debut. Definitely an improvement over Caron. 3-game point streak for Kostopoulous. Oh yeah! Top 50,000, here we come!

I need to find a way to get Giguere on at least one of my Ultimate teams. Another awesome game for him.

Forsberg -> Hossa/St. Louis/Murray/Iginla
Might as well just pick out of a hat.

This morning I traded the injured Roberts for the new Ottawa guy Bondra, hoping for a good start just like Sullivan last night... I also want ot move Legwand (I'm with your C.SuperFreaks) but I only have a total of 3.17 Millions to play with, I could get Conroy for this price... I'm also debating on trading away Burke even if he plays tonight for Kippy, wich would free up some money and go for another option at Center... Any advice would be appreciated... My other center are Big Joe and Lang....

What are people doing with Forsberg moving or holding?I'm inclined to move right now considering his past and the fact that trades were just refreshed.I have to laugh at Zidlicky too 5 assists and he's minus two for the game.I guess the PP was working last night.

Murray and Iginla to me are just right about even. I wish the opponents were a tad easier for them, but I can't see any other options having Hossa and St Louis already.

Forsberg -> Stillman
Handzus -> Lecavalier
Turco -> Kiprusoff

Already had St. Louis, so I'm gambling that TB will come up big. They've got an insane schedule. Too, I didn't want to ruin Murray and Iginla for you other guys by picking either of them up. ;)

Turco a can't miss? The guys playing with a broken foot! Their praying that he doesn't agravate it anymore, or else he'll be out for an extended period of time.

I drafted him on my Basic Season II team, but decided to move into Raycroft as a more secure option.

If it was a worry, he wouldnt've played in the allstar game.

But he's a "can't miss." Nice rationalization, Filthy Rich. Good luck with Turco. Looks a potential differentiation pick.

There is some validity to this choice though: Dallas is 16-6-6 at home this year, and that is a strong record.

Many of these home games are against weaker opponents: Anaheim, Minnesota, Edmonton, Los Angeles.

I will even mull it over meself!

Turco wants to play despite injury

Looks like Turco also has a sore groin. Seems like a questionable acquisition at this point against Colorado.

Also, Forsberg missed practice yesterday but made the trip to Dallas with the team.

Forsberg uncertain

This morning I traded Burke for Boucher, to free up some cash to upgrade Legwand after his 2 next game....

I might just trade him for Zhamnov how is now in Philly...

I'm trading Burke.. Guess I should have done it earlier in the week..... The question is to whom... Leaning towards Luongo, but he does have Boston and Toronto coming up, two tough games.... Could also see getting Giguere.. Have to decide....

The thing about Luongo is he usually gets positve points even when he gives up 3 or 4 goals. Also the last time he played Boston he was about 45 seconds away from a 44 save SO, I know because I had him.

I went with Luongo... I've got to stop my run of mediocrity... I moved into the top 50 just before the all star break and then have pretty much been bouncing between 40 and 60 ever since.... I'm sure I won't get a lot of sympathy, but it's frustrating no matter where your rank is when you hit a "rough" spot.. I'm sure SW understands ;->....

Luongo x3.

Those dull spots are tough, just gotta try and keep making RV throughout the dull spots, so when you get hot, nothing will hold you back.

Luongo also...

These dull spots are terrible...but are difficult times to go trough stronger...right after...

However Bookie, I would not say that being 40-60 world rank is not good. You are doing a great job!

I wish I could do the same...SW you are getting away...everyday...

Have a good week-end!

Picked up Giguere on a couple of my teams. He's another one of those guys that will usually get you positive points even when he loses cause he faces so many shots. I guess I'm just annoyed at all those negative TSNP nights from guys like Osgood, Lalime, and Brodeur this season. But the way my luck has been going for a few of my teams, Giguere will probably be sucking on his water bottle straw a few too many times tonight.

Really frustrating not being able to make much use of my RV advantage over other teams.

Same here, my roster advantage is useless right now. No top D (Lidstrom, Pronger, Gonchar, MacInnis, Blake, all non-factors at the moment) so money is useless there, and no top goalies worth spending on. I'll put cash there if the schedule is nice, but there are just as acceptable options in the 5-6 mil range. Forward isn't much better, with Naslund and Forsberg out, and Bertuzzi playing like a 6 mil winger.

I have to hope it turns around soon, as my entire strategy (started 6 days late) was to out-point people with money. Sitting in 380th spot with no real advantage to exploit isn't exactly what I was hoping for...

Chiodo - 30 TSNP!

Aebischer >> Chiodo on the 25th on one of my Ultimate teams. Probably the one ranked lowest then.

Will Aebischer be a big price loser? Or will people hold him? Murray, Iginla, or Sullivan?

I feel the Avs are in a slump, and I do not know when it will stop, but they are losing, and the last two were pretty bad (5-1).

I think Aebisher us a big loser today, but I'm holding. That was my initial plan of holding him all the way through, and I'm sticking with it. I'm starting to get a nice trade bank, and I'm liking it.

Holding St. Louis as well, it's only a little 2 day hole 1 in 4.

Held Aebischer on 4 of my teams and traded him for Kolzig on one. Just got to hope Forsberg gets back soon and the addition of Boughner makes a difference.

My RV took a beating, but in St. Louis and Aebisher, I think I saved 4 trades. I'll take that, my strategy is changing because the 6 mil D men as Rogue said, aren't playing. If those guys were head and shoulders ahead and getting 37-40 a game like last year, I would've made the trades to keep getting RV, but I'll just save them I guess.

Saving trade, I'll never be able to do so... This morning I had seen enough of Bouche already and traded him for Abby... To be able to to the move I also traded McCabe for Berard...

I guess it's looking more and more like Federov > Vinny this morning. Anaheim looked horrible yesterday. I really like Tampa Bay's schedule a whole bunch this morning.

I'm still waiting on Sullivan, I'd rather have a Hossa game over a Sullivan game I think....I guess some of the Ott guys can be moved next week, but Havlat has been tremendous.

Did end up making that Federov > Vinny move. St. Louis a big gainer, but he's still got room to grow as far as owners, his points still definitely matter. 4 out of the top 5 do not have him.

If center weren't so thin, I would've moved Sundin today, but I looked at the options, and there's just not much there. That's okay, I'll save a trade, Mogilny is back anyways.

Luongo now Richard? After 2 SOs in his last 3, why not just Broduer or Turco or something, seems late to me.

Yea, but in a mad rush to differentiate the last 20 games, I think Broduer or Turco this morning would've been better. Let's hope he does well for all of us. He's only around 30% I think, still lots of places to gain if he does well.

Richard, I'll give ya a better one. I had Luongo and Raycroft. Traded Luongo thinking the Bruins would win the game.... Fortunately, I did have him for the past few games, as my internet wasn't working at home. It's amazing how well you do when you can't second-guess every trade, or panic when a guy has a bad game....
