Fantasy Mailbag - July Weekend Edition!

Patrick Kane's stat predictions for next season. Rebound from this past season or trending downward.

He'll rebound. As a C, I see him in the 20-25 g range and 50-65 assists. He's better on the wing and likely won't reach his full potential until CHI gets a 2nd C.

In a points only keeper league, with extra points for defenceman goals, PPG's, SHG's & OTG's, where would you rank Schultz among the defencemen of the 2008 draft class? (And what a class!!!) Thanks, as always, Angus.

What a class... you are right. I'd probably have him 3 or 4 from an offensive standpoint. AP is 1, DD is 2.

Will you trade in keeper league Streit + Read for Shattenkirk + Voracek? 15 teams, can keep 15 players.

Yes, easily

Thanks Angus. And thanks for posting this in the ramblings!

feel free to re post if I missed any

Thanks. Given E Karlsson is in the class, I assume you like JS at 4 then. So right now you'd take JS over Myers, Del Zotto, John Carlson, Bogosian & Gardiner? That's high praise. Of course, I ask because I have him.

being in toronto, will jvr finally break out?? upside as a center?

will marleau bounce back? or he'll be traded and spiral downward like heatley?

is parenteau's situation better in colorado playing with duchene who is faster than tavares?

and will josi line up with weber? upside if that be the case?

thank you.

Yes I would

Assuming a relatively healthy season for both (75 GP), what point totals do you see for Horton and Mueller.

See team in my sig. Hedging my bet more or less - hoping one of the two will be okay.

Why Doughty and Pietrangelo over Karlsson offensively?

Forgot Karlsson, of course. Best offensive d-man in the game.
