    This game has forced me to eat crow. I did say earlier today that it would be all-time awful to drop Varly for Fasth... maybe not so much anymore.

    He had a nasty reputation as a cruel dealing manager

    they had one thing in common, they were
    good on reading the spread
    He said, 'Fasth, Fasth. My other Goalies lights are turnin' red."

    Your words flatter me sir, haah I'm not planning to sell high on Fasth in my cap dynasty league. He'll likely have a shot at starting or platooning at a modest cap hit next year if this continues for another few weeks. He's a strong hold right now.

    Btw, I'm well aware Colorado sucks offensively, but if you watched that game, you saw how good on odd-man rushes Fasth was. For an NHL rookie, it's been beyond superb.

    Your goalies are full of holes
    As pucks rip by the net
    Of black & gold
    They twinkle as the
    Boys play give & go
    They know that they don't have a chance
    At least they know

    You can't stand the heat
    You're asking for the cheque
    The Dobber manager a crimson thief
    Has Fasth round his neck

    Hello hello
    (Hola)
    At least you dont have Vertigo
    (Donde esta?) Viktor Fasth

    He's everything you wish I didn't know
    But you give me something
    I can feeeeeeeeeeeel

    All of this, all of this could have been yours
    All of this, all of this could have been yours
    All of this, all of this could have been yours
    Just give me what I want
    And no one gets hurt

    Who gets more starts this year and into the future, Hiller or Fasth? obv not easy to predict but I'm not expecting Hiller to be in my top 2 golaies this season.

    do I drop him for Fasth and if he holds on great if not then I still have 4 goalies beyond him? I'm so torn, I know he'll get snatched up quickly.

    He plays calmly, so the D does too. I've only ever seen this a few times with goalies in their first NHL season in the 22+ years I've been watching hockey.
    I read an article in the OC Register a couple days ago (after the San Jose win) where Souray said that Fasth talks a lot on the ice, directing traffic, spotting the defenders, calling out plays, etc etc. I'm not saying Hiller is a mute, but that might have something to do with the players playing better in front of Fasth.

    Something else that was a great reveal in that article was that Fasth is one confident dude. I like that in a goalie.

    Not if you're a goalie and Boudreau is your coach.

    To be fair, I stand by what I said earlier in the thread. If things hold to form, I still think it will be near a 50/50 split. Boudreau isn't one to ride his golden horse, but Hiller is a somewhat well-established starting goaltender in this league. I'm sure he'll right the ship eventually.

    Would you rather grab him and see what he does, or let someone else grab him? Of course if someone else grabs him, he is sure to get more and more starts and you will wish you had picked him. Murphy's Law is the biggest threat in fantasy! LOL

    I think 2 of Lindback, Smith or Fleury will be my top 2 goalies so i'm not too worried about it this year though if hiller takes the job back and fasth disappears into the sunset then dont i look like a fool haha.

    But he could hold some nice trade value or allow me to move another of my goalies.

    If he's going to be 1a in the 1a/b scenario I'll take that and see what happens....but is he haha.

    I'm basically looking for someone to push me over the edge or pull me back from it haha because right now I dont know what to do, and his numbers are just so nice...

    wow, so much hype around Fasth right now.

    Playing good, but no way I would drop a proven goalie (Hiller) for him. I've seen this show before.

    let the lemmings flock to fasth while dropping XYZ to make room for him .

    then pik up XYZ on da wire......

    by all means , pick up fasth if he's sitting there and you only have to drop a srub .
    but I wouldnt advise dropping hiller , kipper etc...for him .

    I own Hiller so I'm just going to wait out the speed bump even if it lasts the season .
