are any of you out there planning on dressing him this week? I've dressed Berglund in his place , but i'm not overly happy with this move. Do I take a chance and dress Skinner??
Hockey Pools? Too many to mention. Points only, salary cap and dynasty.
I would not be dressing Skinner this week if I owned him. Already ruled out for todays game and had to skip practice on Saturday because he wasn't feeling well. Won't be evaluated until tomorrow according to the team.
I'd also sit him this week. Didn't even travel with the team to Montreal and, as mentioned above me, won't be evaluated until the team returns tomorrow.
With that in mind, I'm concerned that he'll miss some more time given that this is pretty much how things played out for him last season too. Hopefully he doesn't miss as much time as last year, but I'd be surprised if today isn't the only game he sits. A bit too risky to chance it in my opinion.

For whatever it's worth (which is probably not much given that it's no shock that Muller "hopes" Skinner can play Thursday, which is far different from him being medically cleared/able to do so).
"Coach Kirk Muller said Jeff Skinner is day-to-day, and the team hopes he can play Thursday, LNH.com's Arpon Basu reports."
