I like the looks of Andy Greene here. Things are starting to come together for the Dirt Devils and he's the obvious beneficiary.

I like Greene, Pietrangelo and Fowler...

I might go with Pietrangelo

Drop Macdonald and pick up both:
1)Cam Fowler
2)Alex Pietrangelo

So... is that it for Gonchar? Not worth a gamble? He is the best talent by a long way on that list. Not saying I would take him, just surprised that no one has mentioned him in the discussion.

Carkner is also a PIMs stud. He can win the category for you singlehandedly.

Rough decision.

I think I would take a flier on Gonchar. He cant be as bad as he is showing here. Spezza will be back soon and there could be an increase in scoring in Ottawa. Obviously its a high risk, high reward situation, but that is how I like to roll.

If Gonchar gets going toward the end of the season, it will be perfect timing for your playoffs. He is a difference maker and the only one of those on the list.

Cam Fowler easily. Mcbain and Pietrangelo aren't bad choices either but Fowler will be better than everyone on that list.

My vote is Fowler or Greene. Being a keeper I'm going with Fowler as you may want to drop McDonald instead when Edler comes back.

Gonchar has to actually get it going for me to take a flyer on him. You make the move too early and he's going to drown your +/-. He's just sitting on waivers so I don't think you lose leaving him there waiting for him to show something first.

I would drop Mac D like A Penguin suggested and pick up Mc Bain and Pietrangelo. Gonchar would also be a wildcard as well in the event that he gets traded.

the best pick-up is fowler and cant believe he is on the free agent list and also pick-up pietrangelo
