    Default upside for Okposo?

    As he just got his first start in the NHL he is now available on our waiver wire.

    Here is my team. you can keep between 8-12

    Hossa, Malkin, Datysuk, Semin, Jagr, Brgalov, Fleury, Huet

    (thosee are my keepers)

    PM bouchard, Gionta, Kovalev, prospal, D langkow, Vrbata, Hect, Kaberle, Entstrom, Lubo
    ( all bubble boys)

    The problem I am Running into is that the top 3 places get paid. Im in 4th at the moment (trying to stay there) as fourth place would recieve the 1st overall pick in next years draft provided he goes down to 8 players.

    It works this way for those of you who dont know.

    If 2 teams keep 8 players, and the rest of the league keeps 12, Than based on positioning (as the draft goes 4th-10th, than 3,2,1) the team closer to 4th would get the higher draft spot.

    The two teams would get to pick up to the 12 players to fill out there roster, than the draft would include the rest of the league.

    I am trying to pick up Okposo- if I do, DO i keep him? or do i Just say **** and go for stamkos? IMO Okposo will contend for rookie of the year next year as i can see him getting 1st line minutes, and ppp time.

    Thanks for the help, Dobber--how do i get your job?

    I laughed when I read it......
    all I could think of is Dobber\'s potential response...

    \"It\'s not a job, it is a lifestyle,

    Hard work, commitment, long hours, sacrifice, struggle with finances/time/family.... Think marriage without the sex.\"

    Then again, you also get all the euphoria/orgasm, plus multiple partners without the need to cuddle or share your feelings.


    EDIT: I agree .... Stamkos > Okposo

    but its not simply stamkos. I can keep Okposo and say kovalev, Kaberle, and enstrom if I keep 12 players. But do I take the risk of losing these guys for stamkos?

    I can always pick them up (or potentially better players for their positions) again in the pre draft most likely.
