Zherdev or Okposo?
So I've now got 4 guys on IR with only two IR slots on my team...
Should I consider dropping Okposo for Zherdev who was recently dropped? I know Zherdev hasn't done a lot, but is much more expected for Okposo whenever he returns? And Zherdev plays on a better team...
Lupul is also available, but I'm way overloaded at LW. (Trying to make a deal to address that issue.)
Thanks.

Funny enough, I have a similar question posted about dropping Zherdev or Booth and picking up possibly Okposo and Lupul.
What rank are you in the league right now? Do you think you can afford to wait another week for Hossa to come back and until the end of December for Okposo? If you're doing ok, and think you can afford to keep IR guys on your bench for a little while, I wouldn't make any moves.
I'm currently in third place, but very close to first... I may be 1st after this week... Playing a weak opponent this week and am currently winning 12-0! So yeah, I can prob afford to stand pat. Just hate those dead roster spots! Next week I play a tougher opponent who is also fighting for 1st. Hopefully I'll at least have Hossa back by then.

For me it's Okposo by a mile. He will be on the 1st line and 1st pp as soon as he is back on the ice.

I'd hang onto Okposo. He will be back soon (end of the month, I think) and he might be the player who vaults you from 3rd to 1st.

Okposo for sure, I'm really hoping that he and JT will click again when he returns. I've been keeping him on the IR all year hoping he could bring somethin good =P

Zherdev is never a serous long term option...he is too mentally weak to produce at any sort of consistent clip..but if he is slotted with Giroux and Carter he is worth a short term add as I doubt Okposo will get picked up by anyone...I rather have Okposo long term option however as Zherdev will undoubtedly shit himself and be replaced with all the talent in Philly's lineup
Zherdev is inconsistent, soft and doesn't even put up points anymore. Okposo is going to see SERIOUS minutes on the Islanders, in EVERY situation. If he wasn't already taken in my league I would've grabbed him. Don't expect him to produce miracles (or have a good +/-) but he's a good hockey player.
