    Default Which C?

    Have O´Reilly as my fourth centerman, starting to get a bit concerned. Multi.cat league stats in sig, i need of FWs cause Stammer doesnt ad up in that department. So who could/should I replace O´Reilly with (none of them will be keept so basicaly a one year decision)

    A few names on FA:

    O Jokinen
    Stepan
    Fisher
    Dubinsky
    Grabovski

    Im thinking Stepan but his Fws seems a bit low, just a matter of playing with Anisimov and Dubinsky?

    Thanks!!

    That and being a young C. It usually takes time to develop as a dependable faceoffs guy. Stepan will only get better in that regard.

    Doesn't look like Stepan would make it as a keeper so Fisher might be the safer option for you. You know you'll get great multi-cat production from him and he'll be centering the 1st line in Nashville. Stepan would be close but considering just this year I'd give the edge to Fisher.

    stepan is really just not that great at faceoffs rangers in general arent but stepan is decidedly poor so his development in that is going slow

    Stepan has went from 38.5% to 44.5% in his two seasons so far. He's already shown a lot of progress in faceoffs and no reason yet to think that wouldn't continue as his game develops. While he'll most likely never get to Toews level he should be close to 50% eventually.

    i am not suggesting it will not get better i am just pointing out that starting from a low spot to begin with he has a bit to make up with regards to this

    sure he will likely approach 50% eventually however if looking for faceoffs in the immediate there have to be better choices

    I'm gonna toss some love out there for Jokinen who is perennially underrated. He'll put up solid figures for you across the board in this format.

    Agree - Jokinen for me - like him in his new situation and will help in multi-cats.
