    Don't EVER say the words - drop him for Pavelec or Theo...

    Keep him - he will help you so much in the playoffs you will be thankful that you did

    Same boat here - unfortunately his value is at an all time low so a trade is out of the question, absolutely nothing on my free agent list worth picking up so I'm stuck with him. I never would have envisioned this kind of a start for him and the Canes, just horrible numbers.

    Yeah you have to hold on to him, his value is at its lowest so you won;t get fair value in return... he'll turn it around soon enough

    I had pegged him as a top 5 goalie this year. Thought the run Carolina went on late last year would spill over and Ward would finish with his best year yet. I still think there's potential for a huge turnaround.

    Patience is a virtue guys. Carolina is jsut having some bad luck this year. If it was a 1 year leauge you might want to consider it, but it's a keeper. In keepers Ward is one of the most valuable goalies, so don't even think of dropping him for one of those.

    If the injury is lasting, I think the season will have to be a write off for Cam Ward...

    What do you think about trading Ward for Anderson in a keeper league?

    I just hopes he gets an IR status. It's really hard to keep a guy who is doing nothing on my roster for a month after he only got me a couple wins....
