Burmi's role on our team

[keslerburrows]

So I picked Burmi pretty damn high in my fantasy keeper league this year.. 6th round in a 20 team league. So my question for you guys is, will Burmistrov ever get top 6 time? Or even PP time? When I watch him he seems electric but it frustrates me when he seems to be favoured as more of a defensive forward. Do I have reason to be worried?

Most likely he'll be 7th in TOI both ES and PP when the season ends... He won't be getting much top6 or PP unless injuries happen...
Jets' are running a top9 system and he's been consistently the pivot on the third line which has been taking the tough matchups for as much as Noel can do.

He probably has more keeper value than immediate value. He may beat out Antropov for #2C at some point this season and if he doesn't, I still seee top 6 in his future.

Burmi has to begin to become an offensive player at some point if he is ever to become a true top 6 , just don't see it now. Defensively he is great.

He needs to shoot more, me thinks
