    I'm still on the bandwagon. Maybe the only one. There's room for anyone to come aboard!

    i'm still really high on Faulk. He's got the acumen, skills, etc. No reason why he can't still blow up in fantasy circles.

    I don't know if he will ever be a great fantasy defenseman, but he is a great real life player, and only improving.

    He's only turning 22 next week. I think the problem was fantasy guys expecting big numbers out of the box. Dmen need time to develop.

    He turns 22 in a week. I know we are growing accustomed to our defensemen producing right away but he still has time to develop that side of his game!

    Considering most people on the site either didn't know who he was or were shocked by his inclusion on team USA at the Olympics, I would consider Faulk seriously underrated. I would consider the Faulk - Sekera pairing as one of the most-underrated pairings in the league. Sekera is even more underrated than Faulk.

    It's true. I still can't believe the Hurricanes hi-jacked Sekera from the Sabres. He was on my radar as a guy for the Oilers to snag for a couple of years. His fancy stats were always promising.
