Hi Dobber,
Thanks for doing this:
1. Whats your take on Phaneuf?
2. Do you think Gonchar will resign with Putts, KHL, or another NHL team (Wash)?
3. What do you see from DelZotto over the next 3 years?
4. What do you se from Jack Johnson over the next 3 years?

In a keeper...goal heavy, no Pims.
Being offered Nash for my Iggy? should I take it?
edit: ok so he's changed his mind but still would like to know who I'm better off with.

Is it a good time to pursue Letang and Goligoski?
I wanted to increase defensive points in the second half and their values seem to be low. Will one or the other start to preform?
What is Ericcson's (DET) value as a keeper?
Hey Dobber, thanks for you time!
In a 1-year roto league, which goalie would you rather have for the rest of the year (W,GAA,Sv%,SHO) :
Emery, Ward, Varlamov, Hiller..?
Thanks!
Which of these gets the most points from here on out.
Chris Stewart
Jussi Jokinen
Todd Bertuzzi
Jason Arnott
2010, 2014, & 2024 WJC Pool Champion, 2020 Runner-Up
Oh sorry, 1 more question that kind of ties in to my other one. So you think I should hold onto Morrow? What do you see him doing the rest of the way? The following guys are on waivers, please let me know if any of them are legit upgrades over him:
C.Stewart
M.Raymond
M.Knuble
R.Clowe
T.Ruutu
S.Avery
R.Clowe
Thanks, as always
That's a nice surprise! Thanks for doing this!
Quick question for you, which of these D (your top 3 if you can) you like the most for the rest of the season in a standard ROTO:
Tallinder, Huskin, RyWilson, Eaton, Leopold, JBoychuk, Pothier, JSchultz, Gunnarsson
Thanks in advance!
Do you see Bailey staying on the Wing for Tavares for years to come? Or is this just something for now and Bailey will be the Line 2 Center for the Islanders?
How many points for Bailey the next few Seasons and then once he is in his prime?
Do you think Kovalchuk may end up on the Islanders?
Thanks.
Will Marty Brodeur's production decrease over the next few years, or do you see him putting up 40-50 wins and 5-10 shutouts for at least the next two seasons?
What point production do you expect out of the following for the next 2-3 seasons?
Dan Boyle
Jumbo Joe
Getzlaf
Marian Hossa
Marty St. Louis.
Giordano has seen at least 21 minutes of ice time in 18 of his last 19 contests. He now leads the Flames in points with 20 with 12 of them coming in the last 21 games. He seems to have usurped Jay Bouwmeester on the top PP unit and I think you’ll see him add another 18 to 21 points to end the season.
That answer was so well done, I'm using it in tomorrow's THN column

Hi Dobbs,
My D is a serious sorespot on my full keeper team. I'm currently sporting Green, Gonchar, Niskanen, Russell, Picard, Carkner.
I have an opportunity to pick up Giordano. How much love do you have for each of the latter four guys?
Thanks in advance!
1. 60-point stud. Just an offer year. It happens to all of the greats, even Lidstrom and Pronger.
2. No, no, and yes - another NHL team. Not Washington. Maybe Dallas or Colorado (when they trade Liles) or a team in need of him.
3. In that 45-55 point range until he's 25 or 26 and then he'll pop.
4. Same as Del Zotto, but a tad fewer points because he gets hurt so much.

1) Straight up, one-year league. Would you trade away Brenden Morrow (LW) to receive Steve Downie (RW)?
2) Would you rather own JP Dumont (RW) or Michael Frolik (C, RW) for the rest of the year in a one-year?

Thanks for doing this, Dobber. I am in desperate need of a team audit. I've struggled with my keeper team for a few years in a row now, always finishing near the bottom of the standings.
It is a 12 team, H2H, salary cap league using actual NHL salaries. Points-only. We set our rosters weekly. Below is my roster listed first, followed by the rosters of the top 2 teams in the league (to give you something to gauge by).
What should I try to do in the off-season to improve my team and hopefully challenge for the championship soon. I am getting tired of finishing low in the standings year in and year out.
My team:
Heatley
Hossa
Spezza
Vanek
Giroux
Peverley
Letang
Kuba
Niedermayer
I. White
Quick
C. Mason
Team in 1st:
Ovechkin
Semin
M. Richards
Toews
St. Louis

Gaborik
Kovalchuk
Kopitar
Tavares
Backstrom
Kessel
Phaneuf
Green
Goligoski
Tyutin
Nabokov
