    Default "There are 2 I's in My Team...maybe 3?"

    So, our league not only pays out for top 3 teams, but also has 3 Individual prizes for:

    a) Vezina (best Goalie per Yahoo Fan Pts)
    b) Art Ross (best forward per Yahoo Fan Pts)
    c) Norris (best Defence per Yahoo Fan Pts)

    While I feel I've made some great moves for the future of my team, and perhaps this season, due to an over indulgence on games played, I fear I will slowly lose my grasp on a top 3 finish.

    SO...

    I have made moves this year to land:
    Erik Karlsson (Likely Norris Candidate for the forseable future)
    Have Tavares/Perry/Getz/Semin/Hall (my biggest shot at Art Ross)

    AND

    Just now orchestrated a move where I acquired Anderson (who..even after sitting for 1 week...holds a 45point lead on the closest goaltender on Fan Pts).

    I get Anderson (Heatley, Boyes where thrown in)
    and
    I send out Marleau, Clowe and Backstrom (Goalie).

    This not only thins my bench out to assist in me limiting my games played, I think it gives me a viable chance (having also landed Rinne) for the Vezina THIS year (Anderson) as well as Years to Come (Rinne).

    Each Trophy pays out half our entry fee. I win 2...I play for free next year when my team should hit the ground running.

    Good Strategy? Decent move (Anderson/Heatley/Boyes for Backstrom/Marleau/Clowe?)

    The good thing about the individual trophys above...they go by total fan points...not how many they earn for me. So max games played is not a factor limiting they're production.

    Think Anderson has a shot when he returns at putting up the fan points?

    Here's hoping I find payout this year one way or another.

    I'd bet either Niemi or Rask wins your league's Vezina.
    Outside shot: Rinne.

    Anderson... he really hasn't played much non-Karlsson hockey for OTT.
    I don't think he can hold on, even if he comes back soon.

    Crosby will win your league's Art Ross by a mile.

    I actually think your best shot for a "trophy money" will be OEL for the Norris.
    How does he stack up right now?

    Having also landed Rinne...I'm crossing my fingers. Fact is...Backstrom wasn't going to win it and I had no more room for Marleau with Voracek coming on so strong. So now I have Rinne AND Anderson. Just increases my odds is all.

    AND OEL...he's sitting 4th and comingon strong! I totally agree. Can't wait for next year when I have Karlsson AND OEL (and those other 2 stiffs...Elder and Streit! lol)

    Thanks for the feed back.
