I wasn't because I thought we were going with NHL players only.

I just forgot about him but even if I remembered, I wasn't taking him. I don't even see a post talking about him so I'm assuming it was posted and deleted over night?

If this was a keeper league MSL would not have been on my radar until much later. He was the other one that I was referring to.

A few beers did factor into not looking at any other options though. :lol:

Re: MSL

Last three seasons, most points:

Giroux 227
Malkin 214
Kessel 214
St. Louis 203
Ovechkin 200

Probably best defensively on that list as well.

JVR's selection made my pick much easier. I wanted him for my power play, but Chris Kunitz is a better fit for my team. Better defensively certainly, if nothing else. 8th most goals in the NHL the past three seasons...not a player trending upwards (thus, his selection in the 80's) but definitely a fine value here I feel...

My question with Kunitz is how reliant was he on Crosby. His style works so well with Crosby that I'm worried his value would take a huge hit without him. I still think he's a 20-25 goal scorer without Crosby, but he's heavily dependent upon other players to be really successful. I'm guessing you're going to play him with Pavelski (though he may be your RW for the first line)? That'd be an effective duo, I think, & would definitely make him a value pick there.

I was wondering how far Kunitz would fall. I had him on my radar because of Crosby.
