Thanks for that, tuques.
Shields is looking better and better as a replacement for Markkanen.
If he can be ANY improvement at all over Berkhoel, he will pick up wins in Atlanta, with the way Kovalchuk and Co. are playing, and he should have a lot of kicks at the can with the dense schedule Atlanta has over the next few weeks.
One caution's got to be Lehtonen's status though, wasn't he slated back around now? He'll have to play a couple of AHL games first I imagine, but it could make for a short-lived stint at #1.

As a Thrashers fan, seeing Sheilds play 3 times this season, I would completely advise against it!!!!
Berkhoel is gonna get starts mixed in, and as bad as he's been (well, I shouldn't say he's bad, he's just not NHL-ready yet) I don't think Shields is any better.
He may win some 6-5 games, but he may also lose some 6-5 games.

man oh man...
Both my goalies (Kipper & Markkanen) got benched last night, and both their backups played excellent.
And I have Staal.
And I have 1 trade left.

IMHO, Kipper is a Keeper.
I have Markannen and if there were other cheap interesting options out there, he would be gone.
And Staal, well. I still advocate throwing him overboard, but since he's playing tonight, you probably will not see a huge selloff.

I traded away Kiprusoff after owning him since the streak started. They have two more home games then off to the road again for another stretch. He doesn't play nearly as well on the road and one reason Sutter went with Sauve last night. I went to Vocoun.

I went Staal>Demitra...
Once I get my new trades, I'll send Markkanen packin.. I just can't see him getting many starts in the near future with Morrison playing so well, and Conklin set to return.

I just can't convinced myself that Demitra will outpoint Staal tonight, there is no dought in my mind that Demitra is going to make much more money gain, but Staal can outproduce Pavel....
I'll probably do the move with my last trade and one reason that would force me to do so is the fact that I have Hasek....

The question I want to ask is how else do you guys have @ centre?
On most of my teams I have demitra, savard and staal. I wanted to hold onto staal until his atl games, but now I don't really want to lose the RV.

For Markannen, I have a pegged sell after his @cgy game on the 25th. I don't really have much of a use for him anymore after that game, his sked kinda goes downhill from there.

Oh! I just watched the best shootout ever. Rangers beat Buffalo 3-2 in which every shooter scored except the last one. Buffalo even changed goalies (Noronen to Biron) during the shootout due to injury. It was sooo very cool.

Nice shootout in Mtl too, Theo stoned 3 straight Thrashers and Pierre Dagenais scored to win it. Lets repeat that, PIERRE DAGENAIS scored. Wtf was he doing in the shootout? was all I could ask, right up until he scored. Guess thats why I'm not an NHL coach... ;)

Dagenais has got a hell of a shot. Problem is that he just cant skate and he cant use his big body. I mean when the zamboni is clearing the ice after the game, they have to zig zag around him. He had a good season two years ago, but he's no longer able to keep up with the new rythym.

I think I'm going to have to move Forsberg for Demitra when we refresh. Demitra's got stupid money coming his way from all sorts of Centers... Foppa's just taking up too much of my funds right now.
That means ill be running with 4 Kings, possibly 5 if LaBarbera factors himself into the mix. I don't think that's too many conisdering the type of high scoring team LA has. They also have a favorable schedule until 12/10. It'll feel almost like old times where one hot team would command 5 or even 6 of your teams spots at any given time.

I'm hopin LaBarbera gets back so I can move Markkanen to him, and then upgrade Vorobiev (yes, I still have him).
Although with Garon's play lately, I can't see LaBarbera getting the majority of the starts in the near future..

Geez. Every day I have a real high price gainer, and then had a real high price loser to even it out.
eg. Tonight: Demitra +160K, Markkanen -90K, Kiprusoff -30K.
If I only had my gainers, my team would have gained 300K. But nooooo, I end up with 150K.

I'm not in a hurry to get rid of Staal, seeing how the previous "mass-hysteria" (dumping Jagr in the middle of his sweet stretch of schedule) worked out for those who did it (I aknowledge that individual situations might vary and that some managers might have gained points as well as $ as a result of that trade, but looking at the numbers, Jagr has accumulated 472 TSNP in his last 6 games).
I have Savard and Demitra, and see no one I'd like to replace Staal with. But if push comes to shove, I might move back to Spezza or Forsberg eventually.

Moved into Ray Emery from Abesicher(bum), going with the cheap d-men approach except in my goalie slot.
I was able to upgrade Ehrhoff to McCabe. I have more confidence in this approach then trying to find a goalie.
Holding Staal. Not making any money the last week or so for some reason.

This morning after baching my head into the wall for 45 minutes, I decided to go from Staal to Demitra, if I could have done it yesterday instead, I would have got the money and the pts, at least Staal procuded a little....

I also had Staal, Demitra, and Savard, and will also be holding Staal. No compelling alternatives at the moment, especially when Staal is doing fine.

Burke is getting more and more starts and he's doing rather well. Cookie Graham has been on my roster 3 times so far this year, and I hope I wont make the stupid mistake of taking him another time.
Anybody thinking about Joseph? He's not a very sexy pick, but he gets most of the starts and gets the job done.
Desjardins: Jump aboard? He should be good for a 500k plus gain, even if Philly schedule is not the most exciting. Might trade Redden out, which would allow me to free some money to move out of Markannen tomorrow.

What is the big deal about Emery?? Ottawa's sched is not the best for the next couple of weeks, so why would people jump a backup goaly with a bad schedule???

Tuques - Its a place holder right now, forunately Emery will get some starts and he is undefeated to date.
The strategy and thinking is that since it has been more difficult to find pts out of goalies this year, to utilize one goal spot for a cheapy 500k player (in this case emery) and spend the dollars elsewhere to gain more points.

Tuques - you are correct. I had read that thread but did not remember that you started it. Going to test this out and see what happens, emery is the best 500k option out there.

I think I'm also doing the Emery plan. I'm in no man's land in too many places with any other combination, and believe me, I've worked out a ton of them. This makes the most sense for me, it will be a trade saver too. Once I get tired of Gerber, which may be soon, hopefully I'll be able to get something pretty decent from that point. At least I'll be able to go 3 stud Dmen now, real stud Dmen (getting rid of over the hill Lidstrom).

Once Labarbera returns, wouldn't he be a better version of Emery?
He's around the same price, and will like twice as many games...

Gaborik is back, already 1g, 1a throught the first period.
Starting next wednesday, is schedule gets pretty hot, while a lot of other team's go downhill. For 5M$, he should be a very nice pickup.

Jagr>Hossa on Sunday
Jagr has a 4 day break, but then the Rangers have a 6 in 10...
Prospal>Gaborik on Sunday
Prospal will have 4 in 16, and Gaborik will have 11 in 21.
Ottawa has a 6 day break next week, so I'm movin Markkanen to Labarbera

An ugly night pointwise, not a good way to end to Week 6. In no particular order here are my decisions for Week 7:
- Which goalie to move into
- What to do with Jagr
- Ottawa or Philly

Jagr is easy:
Out and In, since it will likely be a 500k loss, especially when you consider that you dump him on a saturday. At this point, I'm willing to sacrifice a trade for the RV. He's gonna represent a whole chunk'o'trades come sunday and monday.
Ottawa and Philly? I would say neither, unless you currently have some on your roster, which I doubt. Too much volatility for too few games. I could see hanging on to Pitkanen, but at the first sign of trouble, he's gone (or would be since he's not on my team). I just picked up Desjardins for the $$$ and maybe decent cheap-d points.
Goalies? Beats me. I'm even looking at Joseph at this point...

How crazy is a team goalie situation? Emery + Hasek is 7.61 right now, but that would pretty much lock in goalie letting me play around with my other 10 spots more frequently.....
