    Default Is Rob Zepp the Next Michael Leighton

    Although the sample size is incredibly small, there are similarities between Rob Zepp and Michael Leighton. But are they worth calling Zepp the next Leighton?

    Whatever they call him, I need a goaltender while Howard is on IR, so I'll be keeping a close eye on Zepp's play for the next few games. Anybody else thinking about grabbing him?

    I could be off with my opinion, but taking any Flyers goalie in fantasy hockey is risky. Especially if you're after win's. Their defense is too shaky, and Zepp is still an unknown. He's made some terrific saves over the past 2 games, but he's also allowed some clunkers. That's a recipe for disaster over time with this Flyers team.

    Torn on picking him up. Decided to grab Emery when Mason went down. But he's looked horrific and the coaching staff seems to favor Zepp at this point. Not sure if I want to cut Stuart or Smith-Pelly to take on Zepp. Or if it would be smart just to roll with Holtby, Allen and Svedberg until Kuemper gets healthy.

    This is an interesting comparison. But Mason will be back so Zepp won't be around for too long
