    Default There is no such thing as a Dumba Question

    What are the views on Dumba - over a month in and he is essentially showing zero indication that he will rebound from the rotten start he's had. Ranked #263 in my league, probably very little trade value, I am looking to drop him and grab Gudas (ranked #35), Boro (ranked 37), Chara (ranked 69), Niskanen (75) or Vatanen (ranked 141), so at least I'd have some peripheral coverage....

    The worst part, the part that makes me sick to think about, is that the second day of the season I traded Elias Lindholm and a 14th for Dumba and a 12th, since I needed a better D-core, and all the analysis was screaming "regression" for Lindholm and "powerhouse" for Dumba. FML.

    I love that term, "positive regression".

    I guess I have been holding and hoping for one month, may as well hold and hope for another month. The Wild have given some indication of sucking less in the last little while (maybe, possibly, hopefully)....

    I see him coming around at some point. He's coming off an injury so I will give some grace just for that reason alone. Minny for the most part has been a stinkfest this year.

    This site/forum was mad Dumba hype this off season and I also bought in. The reality is his injury takes time to recover from and get back up to speed. I would try to be patient if you can but it doesn't look good and that entire MIN squad is in deep this year. Especially painful to see Brad Hunt numbers looks significantly better...
