My D is Hurting for Certain

[hollywoodshowcase]

Need some advice on what to do with my D. I know it is super early but getting 0 production from any of my D. Wondering if I should consider making a change. I have Dahlin who I am sure will eventually get things going but won't bring a lot in the banger categories. Would I be better off picking up Dumba or Andersson. I am really likely the deployment of both of them. Both appear to be getting PP1 time and will probably bring a lot more in the peripherals. Dahlin will likely pick it up once Buffalo gets going but am I better off sacrificing a little offense for some more hits and blocks?

I would not be concerned about that D core just yet, that looks like a pretty strong group. Just a bit of a coincidence they're all sucking at the same time. Give it a week or two before making a move. The only two I would consider swapping are Risto and Doughty, but it depends what else is out there. Dumba and Andersson - I dunno if I'd make those moves just yet.

You wait for your guys to do what you drafted them to do. Dont jump the gun. You drafted them for the season, not the first couple weeks.

Doughty so far: .5 PPG, 2PIM, 5 SOG, 1 PPP, 10 HIT, 13 BLK in 4 GP....no production? Stop looking at goals and assists and appreciate what they bring elsewhere.

Risto & Doughty bring as much peripherally as Dumba and 2x's as much as Andersson, if it's hits/blocks you're looking for. Keep what you have.

Doughty's worth his weight in gold in MC leagues right now. Luigi's right. don't move Doughty. That's a beauty MC stat line.


You didn't draft Dahlin for periphs - so don't complain about him not providing them now.

Don't be the knee-jerk GM that drops a stud because of a poor start and land on another team only to watch them destroy you and your league in the 2nd half & playoffs.
