Subban Predictions??

[Jordyr77]

Dobber predicted a lofty 63 for Subban this year in the guide, are you guys buying it?? That seems a tad high to me.

On a side note:
My league is heavily weighted towards D-man now that we've added hits along with the D bonus. Karlsson is #1, followed by Crosby, Subban, Weber, Ovechkin, Stamkos, Giroux, Hedman. I just don't see Subban being the third most valuable fantasy asset in my league, is this the case in most leagues? I used excel and formulas to add all the cats except for PPP together to create point totals. It bothers me because one team has Karlsson, Subban, Kessel as 3/5 keepers and another has Ovi, Weber, Stamkos. Adding hits just completely put it in those two teams favours whereas previously it wasn't so much. One friend got lucky our first year drafting and had Ovi fall to him at 18.... just the luckiest crap ever haha.

I was also considering trying to offer my Malkin for Subban would that be wise (he's ranked 29th after I plugged in my league cats to Dobbers predictions.... that's just an awful position for him). Even in PPG he is only 6th and behind Subban. Is this a smart move if the other guy bites, or should I get a plus back?

I'd put Subban down for 58 points, and expect him to have a career year maybe around 61 - 63. I do think 63 this year is a tad high.

Also, you said you added hits which favours two teams immensely: Was this put to a vote? I am guessing you all supported the new category, instead of just those teams making it happen via executive order?

It kinda just happened on a message board that we'd replace PIMS with hits, none of us really realized how much it favoured the two ( luckily they're both bad at drafting depth so there's hope!

56 points.........

Yah, I honestly think his contract is a tad lucrative, I don't think he'll necessarily be a consistent 60+ player for the duration of his career.
