    This is one hell of a league... Rutta, Mironov and Snuggerud stand out for me
    Experience is the teacher of all things.

    Djoos stands out the most from that list. Close to being NHL ready and has some serious upside. Antipin is also a good sleeper for immediate help. Others don't interest me too much for fantasy hockey purposes.

    Mironov and O'Gara could play in the NHL next season but they don't offer much for fantasy hockey purposes. They could offer some cheap peripherals in salary cap leagues, though.

    top 10, from top to bottom:

    borgman
    djoos
    poolman
    niku
    rosen
    antipin
    rutta
    jerabek
    capobianca
    mironov (if the league counts hit)

    there's a fairly nice draft between rosen and antipin. i'd say I like the top 5 a decent amount, depending on the league categories, and would probably stay away from the bottom 5 unless it was a ridiculously deep league.

    GET WELL SOON, DOBBER.

    Have read good things about Poolman and WPG's cupboard is pretty bare.
