Dobber's Lowdown feature - your input needed. Ottawa Senators!

[Dobber]

This year my "Lowdown" feature in the Fantasy Guide (https://www.dobbersports.com/shop) will be 100% reader-influenced. I would love your help determining which players to dig deep on and give my thoughts as to their immediate and long-term futures. Typically I stay away from the obvious superstars that will just take up valuable space (why should I tell you that Sidney Crosby is good - didn't you know that?). I also stay away from pure prospects that have in-depth profiles in the Fantasy Prospects Report, since three-quarters of the Guide customers also get the FPR (via the Keeper League Pack). What's left are the guys who are more of a question mark. The tough decisions.

We'll take the Top 2 players voted here and put them in our Facebook poll to get the final guy. Anaheim (Montour wins over Kase!), Arizona (Dvorak wins over Galchenyuk!), Boston (DeBrusk wins over Heinen!), Buffalo (A TIE! Reinhart tied Thompson so I guess I'll have to do TWO lowdowns for BUF!), Calgary (Lindholm over Bennett!), Carolina (Faulk ekes past Rask), Chicago (DeBrincat wins over Schmaltz!), Colorado (Girard wins over Jost!), Columbus (Dubois wins over Milano!), Dallas (Honka wins over Lindell!), Detroit (Svechnikov wins over Athanasiou!), Edmonton (Puljujarvi wins over Klefbom!) are already in the books, and the Montreal, Minnesota and LAK polls are up NOW so check them out and vote https://www.facebook.com/DobberSports/

Today's poll - the Ottawa Senators. Please vote!

Chris Wideman, because he may still be with the Sens when the season starts, and he's had some ups and downs the last couple years.

Thomas Chabot, both with and without Erik Karlsson as a Senator.

[fungchen3]

Chabot.

[StuntMan12]

Chabot. I have no clue how he is going to do this season.

[Dobber]

I think I need to do two Ottawa team sections - one for if they keep Karlsson and one if they don't. It means a points swing of 10-20 points for a lot of these players. If he's traded in mid-October, say, then my entire projection chart will be wrong.

Go Chabot!!

I went with Duchene. Curious to hear what Duchene we can expect going forward. The "cold as hell" one we saw early in time in Ottawa or the "hot as hell" one we saw near the end of last season, or somewhere in the middle.

I’d like to see Wolanin actually. He’s not in the poll though.

I'm calling gimmick infringement for posting a trainwreck gif without my permission...

I think the answer to this is; same old, same old?

Watching him 8+ years in Colorado was a blessing and a curse. So much potential, but as streaky as they come.

Dzingel all the way!


Hehehe..

You might want to think about doing another vote if interesting players come back in the Karlsson deal, or if one of the vote winners form another team ends up here.

Voted Dzingel, he's got the best name.

Chabot... he's directly affected by EK ... game changer for him if/when EK is dealt.
