While the rest of the group in your playoff draft set upon the Buffalo Sabres players like a pack of wolves, did you quietly load your team up with Dallas Stars?

Buried in an 82-game season, a player getting 20 points in 29 games for his new team may get lost in the shuffle. When said player gets two points in two playoff games and fires 16 shots at the opposition net, it tends to get people’s attention.
