Pick up J. McGinn, Hemsky, Boyes, Zidlicky, Bourque or Fleischmann?

Haha, anybody? 50+ thread views and no replies? That's funny. Thought my threa title would have said it all really.

From the names you list, I would probably take a shot with Hemsky. His skills have never been questioned, just his health.

So far so good with the health and the numbers are there. I'd take a chance on him but be prepared to jump when the train jumps the tracks and he gets hurt. Hope it doesnt happen but history isnt on his side.

Crap. He just got picked up an hour ago. Anyone else you see as an upgrade over Burns?

My second choice would have to be Jamie McGinn, but I am not sure I would want him over Brent Burns.

If thats the move you want to make, I'd look at McGinn.

Thanks. I see McGinn is getting some excellent PP icetime right now. Even moreso than Hemsky. I may wait a while and see whether Burns starts to produce though.

Flash over McGinn hey? McGinn is on the #1 PP, and had SOG last night. Flash and McGinn both lead their teams in SOG. Flash looks like a solid ~25 goals guy, where McGinn has hit 20 but is still developing and may have a higher ceiling. I'm tempted to take McGinn as he has a bit of a hotter hand, and seems to be a little more productive on PIMs (not much, but hey).

It looks like a bit of a coin toss actually.

Boyes also seems to have the highest potential of any of the guys, given his past production. He's also in a great spot on the Islanders' lineup - alongside Tavares/Moulson both at EV & PP. He has dual position eligibility too.

UPDATE - P. Berglund is also available. His 8 goals so far are pretty enticing, but he doesn't appear to be getting many shots, and the PP icetime is pretty spread out in St. Louis.
