    Default Anyone feel there is a lot of jumping the gun happening early this year?

    On my FA, just cleared waivers, we have Matt Moulson and Derek Stepan.

    Another guy dropped Holtby in net.

    My question is, with these bigger players being dropped for short term "rookie" gain, is it worth it to pick em up now?

    For trade, i'd drop Lehtonen for Holtby

    I'd also drop Fleischmann for Moulson (or Chiasson, I know...rookies) and/or M. Koivu for Stepan.

    These quality moves? Or should I stick it out with what I got?
    Thanks!

    To answer your questions in order:

    No, this is the same as people jumping the gun every year ever!

    Yes I'd drop Lehtonen for Holtby

    Yes I'd drop Flash for Moulson

    Yes I'd drop Koivu for Stepan

    Get in there and take advantage of these early season jitters!!!

    Done, Moulson and Holtby on board.

    Stepan is the only one i'm debating, I know I shouldn't but i'm really on the fence..

    You won't have to fret about this long. Someone else will scoop him up!

    If it's your league in sig, drop Downie and Elias for Stepan and Moulson. I'm unsure on the Holtby one, but I'd trust the forum.

    Thanks guys, tossup for me is Koivu or Elias for Stepan.. I already fired off on Moulson, got him for Fleischmann, and traded in Lehtonen for Holtby (with hopes of him bouncing back)

    Thoughts?

    Cheers

    I'd go Elias for Stepan. I think Min will be a better team than NJ this season and Koivu playing with Parise and PomPom will be too good to pass up.

    You don't think he'll make enough PIM/Assists to make him worthy of a spot? I could dump him, but again i'd be losing a LW/RW, where with Elias, i'd be chucking out a LW/C.. I have Crosby, Koivu, O'Reilly, Tavares all able to play C. This change anything?


    Thanks again guys!
