The Value 25

Saturday, March 13, 2010

The best way to describe this list is if you go to the waiver wire in your individual fantasy league (personally, I use Yahoo!) and find that Alexei Ponikarovsky, Tim Connolly, or Ryan Clowe are all available, this list is not for you. The Value 25 is a watch list intended for deep fantasy [...]

Second Pairing Defensemen Equals Second Round Pick

Not once, but twice today we have seen a solid second-pairing defensemen moved for a second round pick. The Pittsburgh Penguins acquired Jordan Leopold for their second round selection after reportedly refusing to part with the pick for Raffi Torres.

2 Comments

Once a prolific scorer, Miroslav Satan, 35, has been reduced to a declining veteran with very little game left in him. Didn’t we say the same thing about Paul Kariya, 35, Bill Guerin, 39, and Vaclav Prospal, 34 – all players who are helping the majority of fantasy teams this season.
