Cheers

Real strong team although it is hard for me to gauge completely since it is a nine team league. Hard to top Malkin Sedin Benn Backstrom Kane as a top 5 forward group. I agree about the hits but in a 9 teamer there has got to be a ton of players you can grab off of waivers to supplement that category, no?

I haven't really had a ton of time to look through the waivers yet but i'm sure there will be a few there.

I think this is a bottom 3 team in a 9-team league.
With 9-teams, you reached for your goalies way, way too early.
And Halak & Cam Ward aren't necessarily going to be saviours, IMO.

Henrik Sedin is typically a terribly overrated fantasy player... and his value is hurt in SOG/HIT leagues.

Yandle doesn't HIT either.

I know the roster looks strong... but in a 9-team league, they all will... and the teams that drafted forwards & D early, will have gotten some really, really great goalies late in the draft.

Always appreciate the feedback!

The goalies started going early 13 of the first 36 were tenders so I jumped on the train, its a reactionary thing. You would have waited another couple rounds to grab a 2nd tender?

(4) Jonathan Quick (LA - G)
(7) Henrik Lundqvist (NYR - G)
(9) Tuukka Rask (Bos - G)
(10) Cory Schneider (Van - G)
(11) Pekka Rinne (Nsh - G)
(16) Marc-Andre Fleury (Pit - G)
(18) Jaroslav Halak (StL - G)
(22) Jimmy Howard (Det - G)
(25) Mike Smith (Pho - G)
(31) Niklas Backstrom (Min - G)
(34) Ilya Bryzgalov (Phi - G)
(35) Ryan Miller (Buf - G)
(36) Cam Ward (Car - G)

I was also on the fence with Henrik as well and having the turnaround pic in the snake i grabbed him in a panic. There are a few D-men on waivers that i might have to pic up that will help in the hits department but will probably hurt on the +/- column.

Post all the goalies taken please... I bet you'll see some really decent goalies that went late around #20, #21, #22 goalies.

kipper is easily as good as your first two goalie picks and came much much later than they did

Just out of curiosity would have you taken at least one tender within those first four rounds??
