Would you rank these 4 dmen in the order I've listed them in the title?

Thanks in advance

League in sig

Tough call. Two guys we don't know much about at the NHL level and two guys who are underperformers.

What are you looking for? This year? 2-3 years away?

I would possibly put Schultz top of the list...

A little bit of both. They would be my #6 dman.

I'm thinking Ceci has the highest floor. Forsling and Lindell have the really really deep sleeper potential but the depth chart in front of them is deep, more so for forsling.

For my league, elcs are free keepers, so Lindell and forsling I can keep beyond this year. Ceci/Schultz would be just this year

[ericdaoust]

I'd go with Ceci.

Anyone one watching Stars or Blackhawks preseason games? Either I'm doing it wrong or frozen pool is out of order right now.

Wondering what PP2 units are looking like for the respectives of these dmen.

[Axeman33]

Short term, I prefer Ceci (this year and next year).

Long term, it will be interesting to see what Forsling and Lindell do with their respective teams. I think both have solid upside but still undetermined where they stand with their respective teams at this point.

Thanks

I was thinking more this page http://dobberhockey.com/frozenpool_last3gamelines.php

the last three games only does regular season I guess.


Clarification about the player profile page, using Lindell as an example:

It says at even strength, lindell played with Klingberg for 38.5% and 37.5% for power play. Does that mean that that pair played 38% of the game together? or 38% of his shifts came were with Klingberg

Ed: Looking at the info again, its probably the latter.

[Crazy Joe Davola]

Gustav Forsling is going to be a hell of an offensive player. If you wanna wait on a boom player, he's your guy.

Safety Sam? Go with Ceci.

It goes by shifts.

Ceci is not under performing. He is young and probably a better real life D man than fantasy but should get you 40 pts + consistently.

Schultz, it pains me to say is an enigma. So much offence, so little D. So much opportunity, so little to show. The books not closed yet, but it is close and I have little faith he can produce to his potential.

Lindell is a good project. I suspect similar to Ceci but with more offensive ability. Hence why it has taken him longer to make his club. A fine fantasy asset in a year or two (Ceci has 200 more NHL games).

Forsling is an offensive wiz. He was on my radar as a Canuck, but I assumed he lacked the responsibility to be an NHL D man, as their reasoning for trading him. It looks like Chicago has taught him well. I was shocked to see he has stuck with the big club. He could be the best fantasy producer by far. Boom or bust. I suspect more boom, as I trust Chicago to, not let an irresponsible D man on their roster.

Drop Schultz for Sergachev?

[Eskimo Brother]

Drop Schultz for Sergachev?

I would at this point. A lot more upside and it seems like there are some other decent FA options if Sergeyachev doesn't work out.
