Kubina......a keeper?

[bluejays]

On pace for 37. Dobber predicted he would hit 40. What do you think? How valuable is he worth in a points keeper? Lots of talk about TO cleaning house and if Kaberle moves he then becomed top 2 with McCabe. It seems that if either one of the big 2 go (McCabe/Kaberle) he surely would benefit as a PP1 Dman and be a shoe in for 40+ every year. Will Ian White or Carlo C. take him over down in the forseeable future? I guess lots depends on whether one of the top 2 move, if not he maybe gets 35 this year (with McCabe due back in a month)? Then if no one is moved he goes back to PP2 and 30 pointer?
I really am having a hard time valuing this guy? Help. BTW he has 4 yrs left on his contract after this one.

Who are your other potential keepers? Depends on who you\'d be keeping him over. Also, what are the scoring categories in your league?

[bluejays]

points only. The other players are hard to tell you, b/c I am basically looking for opinions on what his value is? 40 pointer regular PP guy or 2 PP unit - 30 point guy?

Kaberle won\'t be moved, and when McCabe comes back, Kubina will lose top powerplay minutes, so he is sort of an illusion right now as to what he is really worth.

Yeah I struggle to elevate Kubina to a keeper in almost any circumstance. 40 points a year on a consistent basis strikes me as being very optimistic.

I doubt it... especially not in a salary league.
