    Default Dobber's Lowdown feature - your input needed. Vegas Golden Knights!

    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 (Note - I already profiled Svechnikov in the Prospects Report so he shouldn't have been in the poll. So Athanasiou was done instead!), Edmonton (Puljujarvi wins over Klefbom!), Florida (Matheson baaaaarely gets past Bjugstad 51% to 49%!), Los Angeles (Kempe over Toffoli!), Minnesota (Eriksson Ek over Coyle!), Montreal (Domi over Drouin!), Nashville (Fiala over Turris!), New Jersey (Zacha over Butcher!), NY Islanders (Pulock over Beauvillier!), Rangers (Buchnevich over DeAngelo!), Senators (Chabot over White!), Flyers (Patrick over Konecny!) are already in the books, and the PIT and SJS polls are up NOW so check them out and vote https://www.facebook.com/DobberSports/

    Today's poll - the Vegas Golden Knights. Please vote!

    I like me a little Tatar sauce. Will he bounce back in Vegas or will he roll snake eyes?

    I'm guessing that's Carpenter's nickname? I thought only his girlfriend called him hammer.

    Are you trying to unmask Zorro?


    I went with Tuch. Lots of potential there, but I'm not sure if I'm getting over-excited.

    Gotta go with Wild Bill Karlsson. As far as where to draft him, he could be all over the map. I'd be way more interested in him than someone like Tatar.

    marchessault for me... although, this is one team an exception could be made and several players get expanded coverage. It's rare this many players get bumps in playing time and opportunity as this team rosters.
