Ottawa_Biatch 288 Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 http://sports.yahoo.com/nhl/players/692/newsUgh, I just picked up Demitra and now I find out he's on the stopper line. Do you guys think his numbers will drop significantly? I only have 60 moves for the whole year, and I'd already used 7, do you think I should start slowing down with my moves?

MapleLeafpoker 1,462 Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 in my opinion....... save your moves for after the first few weeks and especially Nov/Dec. Thats when you find out which sleepers have any worth. also, dont put too much stock into those kinds of things abotu Demitra. He will be the top scorer on LA, and barring injury, he will be top 15/20 in the NHL, if not top 10. Link to post Share on other sites

That's like putting Keith Tkachuk on a goal-scoring line. Oh wait...Line changes happen frequently. If one of the top two lines don't work out, Demitra will be shifted up in a heartbeat.

Ottawa_Biatch 288 Posted September 25, 2005 Author Share Posted September 25, 2005 I just don't understand the move. It doesn't make sense. Link to post Share on other sites
ajs510 122 Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 I just don't understand the move. It doesn't make sense.I'm with you there, I would put him on the first line with Roenick and Frolov. I wonder if he's being punished for something...Anyway, I wouldn't worry about it too much, Craig Conroy can dish a pass just as well as Roenick, he'll still get his points. Might get more PIM's on the thumper line too, which would make him more valuable. Link to post Share on other sites
