Lorsque Jeff Carter a été choisi au 11ème rang en 2003, je croyais que les Flyers avaient obtenu un gars qui avait le potentiel d’atteindre les 40 buts et 90 points. Lorsque Scott Hartnell a été choisi au sixième rang en 2000, je croyais que Nashville avait en poche un joueur avec le potentiel de 30 buts et 70 points, ainsi qu’un leader énergique. Lorsque Joffrey Lupul a été choisi au septième rang total en 2002, mes attentes initiales envers lui étaient que les Ducks avaient acquis un gars qui a le potentiel de marquer 30 buts et de 80 à 85 points.

Les trois jouent maintenant ensemble avec les Flyers, sur le même trio et ils jouent selon leur plein potentiel.

When Jeff Carter was drafted 11th overall in 2003, I figured that Philadelphia nabbed a potential 40-goal and 90-point man. When Scott Hartnell was selected sixth overall in 200, I felt that Nashville had a potential 30-goal, 70-point leader who brings energy to the game. When Joffrey Lupul was picked seventh overall in 2002, my initial assessment was that the Ducks acquired a kid with the potential to score 30 and see 80 or 85 points.

All three of them are now Flyers, they play on the same line and they are now playing up to their potential.

 According to Aaron Portzline of the Columbus Dispatch, Brassard is done for the season with shoulder surgery. Justin Pogge has been recalled by the Maple Leafs and he will likely get the start Monday against Atlanta. He sports an .890 SP in the AHL and a 10-9-3 record, but last season he had a strong second [...]

WJC Preview- Finland

It's that time of year again, and Bugg Bytes kicks off its World Juniors coverage with six days of roster reports. That's right- half the time of that annoying song, quadtriple the amount of useful information! First up: the peksy Finns, who are woefully underrated entering the tournament.

 Jussi Jokinen has been placed on waivers by the Lightning. A team would be crazy not to pick him up - he's young, is strong at both ends, and has 65-70 point upside.  Not confirmed, but strongly hinted: Derick Brassard suffered a shoulder injury and will be on the shelf for 3-4 weeks. I traded [...]

 Dustin Brown has seven points in his last four games - each of which he has played at least 20 minutes. Upon further study, I (it's Dobber again) discovered that he has 17 points in 18 games that he played at least 20 minutes, but just seven points in 13 games where he did not [...]

Part 2 of 4.  Over the next few weeks, I’ll attempt to give you the Eastern Conference low-down on fantasy players broken down by position and team (similar to my Western counter-parts “Fantasy Indicators of Success” series). Last week we looked at goaltenders, this week I’ll cover the defensemen of the Eastern Conference. Statistics include Tuesday night’s games.
