there would be arguments for both but id drop zidlicky.
I have Joni Pitkanen coming off from the IR and I need to decide who to drop. I have Zidlicky and Souray as my only choices practically, as you can see from my signature. What would you say?

Stats are almost identical except for +/-, where Souray is far superior. Both are 35 years old defensemen on the downside of their careers....my opinion is to keep Souray.
I think I would take Zidlicky here. Sourays stats reflect the strong start he had but he has really stunk up the joint for some time now(he has 7 pts in his last 41 games). Zidlicky had a terrible start and after the trade to NJ he has really flourished (8pts in his last 15gms). He is starting to look like the Zidlicky of old. Going forward, I think Zidlicky has a better chance and a better track record of being the better of these 2 choices.
Zidlicky for me.
