    Me again!

    This dude was a nice surprise last year and actually helped me win my in my league #2..

    Now at only 2,5m he would be a great value if he projected to put up 50 ish points.

    I've read that he could be the Jagr replacement in FLA on the top line, if so his chances are excellent.

    What is your read on the situation?

    He he sticks in the top 6, 50 points are attainable.

    Like FinnishFlash said, if he gets top 6 minutes it's definitely attainable but with his age I'm going to be a little cautious on buying into him at the moment.

    I'm optimistic on him, but there's definitely competition for him in FLA. I could see 40 points, but I'm hoping for 45-50.

    I think he is pencilled for top 6... key will be him making the most of the, unlike his time in Van

    It's hard not to imagine him in Florida's top six. My thoughts are that his contract and last year's 20 goals, 55 points on a lesser team, pretty much guarantee at least 20 goals and 50 points for him in Florida. I'd be shocked if that didn't happen this year. Shocked I tell ya.

    45-55. 55 if you are high on him.

    As an aside, several years ago, someone in my league who owned Vrbata had the best team name: "Random Vibrator"
