  Angus here - got a question for you guys. One year points-only league. Only four moves all year. Too early to drop Simmonds for either J. Williams or Comeau?   San Jose has extended Joe Thornton. The terms: three years, $21 million.   Anaheim has assigned Luca Sbisa to the AHL. The move says [...]

  Angus here - Mason Raymond is playing with the Sedin twins tonight against Carolina.   Cory Schneider is getting the start.   Tomas Kopecky continues to roll, and he now has seven points in six games.   How awesome are the Florida Panthers? So awesome that they can waive Michael Grabner and scratch Steve [...]

  Josh Cooper, Preds beatwriter, says that Matt Lombardi has a concussion. He will miss the next four games. At least. So Mr. O'Reilly, you have four games to make a big impression.   The Devils have sent Alex Urborn to the minors.   Vincent Lecavalier took a shot off the hand last game, but [...]

Brodeur

 

In just nine days, Martin Brodeur has started all six games for the New Jersey Devils. That comes as no surprise to anyone. But his 1-4-1 record, 3.18 goals against average and .887 save percentage surely does. With his lone win coming by way of a 24-save shutout over the Sabres, the other five outings speak volumes to his downright dirty start. Mired in mediocrity, Brodeur’s numerous weak goals against has led many analysts to consider him a thing of the past.

 

For the more things change, the more he stays the same. And that, my fantasy friends, is the essence of Brodeur’s issues.

  Interesting moves in Calgary - they have plucked Brenden Mikkelson off of waivers from Anaheim and assigned TJ Brodie to the AHL.   The Tennessean is reporting that Pekka Rinne will start tonight and Martin Erat will return to the lineup.   The Oilers have finally juggled their lines - but kudos to them [...]

Kopecky

 

This week, I thought I’d take a look at 10 hot starters from the West and give my prediction/analysis on whether or not their production will be sustainable for the duration of the fantasy season. (Thanks to Mike Hess for suggesting this idea in the comments section of the daily ramblings Monday)

  The top six goalies are so close you couldn't slide a piece of paper in between them, according to keeper leagues with a playoff element.   Just doing the goalie keeper rankings - and while Luongo and Fleury have tumbled, they haven't tumbled enough to fall out of the Top 2... I'm trying to [...]
