    Default Yandle is killing me

    His +/- is at -19. I know we all hate the stat, but that puts him at a lofty 27 poins for me on my Fleaflicker team. Less than Voynov, and a whopping 19 points behind Suter.

    Would you stick with him? We are just really using this spring as a tester for our league. But I am wondering if I should package him with a Cogliano/Bonino/Filpulla for an upgrade on my RW (Simmonds and Hudler won't be kept, well Hudler won't for sure). Or try and get a better D (but I assume whoever has the good D's knows that Yandle right now is worth little).

    Panicking for no reason, so ride it out? Or see what I can generate interest wise?

    Personally I would stick it out with him but if you arent happy with his production for your team, put him on the block and see what you can get for him. I am sure you'd have no issues getting offers for him.

    Would you prefer Yandle if he was +17 but had only 17 points?

    The truth is that his +/- is not reflective on his actual play. He is a solid D-Man in both zones and his stats in that category are bound to take a turn for the best; at least next year if not this season.

    I would hold on to an arguably top-7 D, even if he's having a a bit of trouble with one particular stat.

    PS: who is OEM as a keeper on D for you Did you mean OEL perhaps?!
