    Default 2017/18 targets

    Who are some players you guys are targeting in every league you have? Not concerned with league specific categories or age. Just players in general you're targeting.

    For me I'm going hard after Elias Lindholm, Fabbri, Drouin, Burakovsky and honka in every league I have as I expect them to all take big steps forward and often owners don't give them enough credit.

    Shipachyov - he will get a scoring role and someone has to score for Vegas.
    Ghost - bounceback season!
    Couture - If Thornton or Marelau leave town Couture will get prime minutes with PAvelski and Burns on PP

    I have targeted and gotten many guys I had wanted but still have big name guys since my league is shallow. I'm looking at
    Draisaitl
    Skinner
    Marner
    Rantanen
    Vasilevski
    Eichle

    But I am glad to see lindholm and rabbit on guys lists as I own them in my farm

    in my points league and salary cap league im going to target shipachev. i wanted to draft shipachev in my ($30) pts money league but rules state they have to be drafted in order to be taken. knew he was coming over after spending a week in florida last year to negotiate a contract just to find out he couldn't get out of his khl contract (from what i remember). i actually got shipachev in another pts league ($50) a couple months ago in free agency

    Love me some Klefbom too, but he's going to be tough to steal after his regular season finish/playoffs.

    Haha fair enough. I guess when I hear targets I assume people are looking for steals, so I automatically start thinking of the discounted players.

    Everyone loves a discount

    i I guess my point would be that they won't be cheaper than they are now... Yes you potentially aren't getting a discount but think of them as shares in Apple.. They are only going up lol
