There is no Crawford there to give the Naslund Bert Morrison line the first dibs in pp icetime. The Sedins better step up to the plate right away.<BR/><BR/>I don't blame Clarke.

Why so many people sign up for those things and ignore them is beyond me.<BR/><BR/>Everyone underrates the Sedins every year, but this year in particular, who else will Vancouver put on the power play? It's going to be Sedin-Sedin-Naslund, as far as I'm concerned, and the twins could both hit 80 points. <BR/><BR/>They are still only 25.James Mirtlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11221488913251638181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27850362.post-1158169683430922592006-09-13T10:48:00.000-07:002006-09-13T10:48:00.000-07:00Surprisingly?Well, let's just say that I was surpr...<I>Surprisingly?</I><BR/><BR/>Well, let's just say that I was surprised that you joined me in the systematic ignoring of defensemen. We shall see how that strategy works out, but I suspect it will be pretty good.<BR/><BR/>Sedin-Sedin I think is a real steal.<BR/><BR/>It was a tough draft league, so nice work.Earl Sleekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15843720035500316419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27850362.post-1158125332777148482006-09-12T22:28:00.000-07:002006-09-12T22:28:00.000-07:00Surprisingly?Surprisingly?James Mirtlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11221488913251638181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27850362.post-1158115566528587182006-09-12T19:46:00.000-07:002006-09-12T19:46:00.000-07:00It's hard to argue that Lupul's deal is a little s...It's hard to argue that Lupul's deal is a little steep, at least right now. As he'll only make 1.5 mill next season. Sure, the cap hit is 2.31, but the Oilers are more concerned with their internal cap than the league mandated one. Seems like a fairly shrewd deal if Lupul can manage 25, 30, and 35 goals in the next 3 seasons, respectively. If he scores more, then it makes KLowe look like wiz GM, again.joninaboxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17658743286610712923noreply@blogger.com
