Studs & Duds 2/21/2013

First, apologies for the delay in getting today’s studs & duds up. It’s just been one of those days.

Studs

To be a stud today, you needed 2 goals last night:

Pacioretty has picked up where he left off last season and is improving. He’s 2 goals last night put him on a point per game pace this season. He’s a must own LWer in fantasy.

Horton gave the Bruins the edge last night with his two goals. Although he’s not back to his pre-concussion form, he’s still effective and quite fantasy worthy. If only he’d get a few more penalties.

Van Riemsdyk had another great game. Put him into a tie with Stamkos and Tavares with 11 goals (thanks, Nights!). A fantastic acquisition for the Leafs!

Last night’s top stud has to go to Huberdeau. With 2 goals and 2 assists, it’s a big night for the kid. He has to be a front runner for the Calder at this point.



Duds
Bryzgalov definitely benefitted from Tippet’s system in Pheonix. He was awful for a good portion of last year. He has been hit or miss this year. He was off last night. In a H2H league, I would be able to trust him. Four goals on 15 shots will do that to you.

Calling Big Buff! Where are you? Nearly non-existent on the scoreboard last night and has been very quiet since returning from injury. In 5 games he’s had no points and only 6 shots. Dud or still nursing an injury?

While he has been better in February, a .896 SvPct and 3.27 GAA is not even backup worthy, let alone the status that starter Cam Ward has. In his last 5 games, he’s only saved 90% of the shots once. Is this the same Cam Ward that was brutal at the start of last season and stellar at the end? Let’s hope so.

If you were a chef that might actually work.

Well, I do make a mean chicken pot pie! :)

I have horrible hearing but I just heard Buffy's war cry. Expect a hot streak to come.

Funny thing. A knock came to my door last night.. I told him he could only have the pot pie if he got on the scoreboard on Saturday night.

Expect some production tonight boys! :)

So, now you've just gone and pissed Buff off....turned him away from the pot pie?

Here's hoping for a Saturday night Stud performance.......

No worries bumchilly25. He had 12 servings of the stuff. We should see good things.

Perfect. AS long as you never let him drive the boat home.......

He only had light beer with dinner.

Light beer....with 9 helpings of the pot pie....good decision by Buff. Time is right for some points. Looking forward to the games tonight.
