Worried about Ehlers?
Hi guys,
what do you make of Ehlers` ice time, or lack of? I mean, if he is skating close to 10 minutes per night, he can not be particularly fantasy relevant.

Re: Worried about Ehlers?
I would stand pat on Ehlers.. He is definitely too talented to consistently play 10 minutes a game!!

Re: Worried about Ehlers?
He has never been on PP1 in WPG and his floor seems to be 30/30 regardless. If he gets on PP1, look out.
Marner was on the 4th line in TO last year until well into the season. Look at him now. Point is, Ehlers may be frustrating, but trading him now is the WORST decision. Hold Pat.
Re: Worried about Ehlers?
Last game Ehlers spent 13.3% of Jets ES ice time with Little/Laine...Perrault got 10.5% with them. Neither were on PP1. Ehlers had 14.24 total toi...Perrault 11.51. Each got 2.35 PP. Lets hope Ehlers gets back full time to Little/Laine as if he stays on 3rd line I took him much earlier than I should have.
SOME POOL RULES. Points only (G-1, A-1). One year Hybrid Pool. 3 round draft with balance of roster selected from any undrafted NHLer.. 19F 4 D 2 Rooks SALARIES AND POSITIONS DO NOT MATTER (other than being a F or D).

A hurt player can be replaced by another F/D from HIS NHL team and this is NOT considered a trade.. Injured player can be put back on team any time.

Re: Worried about Ehlers?
He's playing on the 4th line with Roslovic and Vesalainen. I don't expect that line to last. I think Veselainen gets sent down and Ehlers will find his way to the top 6 eventually. You don't pay a player 6 million a year to play <10 mins a game on the 4th line.
I can't promise I'll try but I'll try to try.
Re: Worried about Ehlers?
Could be a message being sent by the coaching staff because of something unapparent to those not in the know. He's too talented to be stuck there for too long, but also seemingly too important to the team to be left to languish in the bottom six. Plus, worst comes to worst Perreault always gets hurt, so that would solve the problems right there.

Re: Worried about Ehlers?
This^. I also wouldn?t say lower your expectations, line 2 pp2 and 60ish points was the expectation going into the season.
Re: Worried about Ehlers?
If someone offered wild Bill for Ehlers straight up, do you accept? I've been offered that (goal =3, assist =2, +/- counts).
Still think Ehlers floor is way safer than Bill's but Bill gets PP1. Plus I expect Vegas PP2 gets more time this year with Patches and Stasny.
Thoughts?
