I'd drop Rundblad for him.
Just joined an established 14-team H2H full keeper league, taking over a middle-of-the-pack team. 17 offensive scoring categories are used, pretty much every one you can imagine. Getting to know my roster and wanted some input on Kulikov.
My team's d-man roster is here, with Fantasy Points from the just-completed season as well:
Active:
Byfuglien : 749
Pietrangelo : 668.5
Shattenkirk : 709.25
Meszaros : 253.75
Barrie : 518.5
Hamonic : 268.25
Irwin : 281.75
Farm:
Gudbrandson : 174.75
Rundblad : 21.75
Sproul : 1.75
Clendening
Nurse
Reinhart
Kulikov was just dropped to the wire today, and I'm trying to determine if I should put in a claim. Kulikov tallied 238 FPts this past season. I'm at the 22-player max for active roster, so I'd have to drop someone to claim Kulikov. How does Kulikov stack up to who I have, in particular Meszaros, Hamonic & Irwin? Is this kid ever going to "get it" and become a fantasy force on the FLA blueline? Where's he top out at? This past season was basically his 5th complete season in the NHL, with stats of 81GP, 8G, 11A, 19Pts, -26, 66PIM, 127SOG, 5PPP. Underwhelming, right?
Thanks for any input.

My league includes hits and blocks so I think he's more relevant actually. I have enough players where I could drop a prospect for him, since our McCain club rosters are 26 max. My league has farm streaming also... Silfverberg is still considered a prospect..

For a middle of the pack Team that has not the urge to win now i roll the dice with Kulikov over Meszaros. The guy has progressed in the second half of the season after the 1st one was crappy. With a steady partner and real coaching his stock could very well rise.
Commish of UNFFHL, dangered species being the sole Panthers fan on Dobber.
I'd drop Meszaros for Kulikov in a heartbeat.
Kulikov has sort of plateaued for now... but I'd take him over Meszaros without question. He's still young and the Panthers will start improving in 2014-15.
