HC-IR Fantasy Keeper League Discussion Thread [Draft Underway]

Carter at 47 is a joke. St. Louis GM must be high to take Briere over Carter(who has outscored Briere the past 3 seasons, and is 26 compared to Briere who will be 34 when the season starts). And Carter has a lower cap hit.

 

[The Instigator]

Ovechkin, Richards, Ward. BOOSH.

No respect. I remember when Richards and Carter would go top 15 in these things.

Carter might be traded to a much worse team than Philly, while Briere is staying on a top team with very good forwards.
Also, with the point system we are using on fantrax, Briere had a higher point per game rating this past season.

You could also call a lot more people "high" for letting Zetterberg fall to 31st overall.

Nah man, Richards is getting traded.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

We are currently trying to trade back into the next few picks. If your 3rd round pick is available please PM me.

Might. And recent reports indicate that he won't be. Last year, that was true. Last year Briere was also with better linemates than he will be this year, and Carter was the odd man out rotating up and down the lineup. Here are their numbers the past 3 years.

10-11

Briere-244.5
Carter-237

09-10

Briere-189.5
Carter-205

08-09

Briere-88.5(3.05/game)
Carter-302.5(3.69/game)

Fantrax PPG total past 3 years:

Briere-2.89
Carter-3.15

Carter is an appreciating asset while Briere is a depreciating asset.

Hey MD,

Go **** yourself.

Carter is an appreciating asset while Briere is a depreciating asset.

All the matters to me is who I believe who will have a better season.
Yes, Briere is much older, but what I'm mostly thinking about is how well players will perform in the upcoming season or two, not in the next 3-5 seasons.

You must be high to think that only your opinion matters.

 

[Moses Doughty]

Definitely got a steal in Zetterberg. DANG CP TOOK WARD

Bryz is a risk, and love you too HC

 

[Backstrom #19]

IR, let me know when it's almost my pick.

 

[IslesRock4]

Hey MD,

Go **** yourself.

Umayyad?

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

IR, let me know when it's almost my pick.

Am I not good enough to let you know?

Think what you want to think. The tangible, concrete evidence certainly suggests Carter will be better. We'll re-visit this next year and see who is right.

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

Nah man, Richards is getting traded.

You're both wrong.

Both are being traded to the Blue Jackets, man. For Filatov and a 3rd -- ELITE POTENTIAL BRAH.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Actually that would make us both correct.

Being arrogant doesn't make you any more right.
You can feel free to join the wait list and if you get to take over a team during the draft, you can draft who you believe is the best player available.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Billy and Nuckles....

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

Actually that would make us both correct.

Nah.

 

[Moses Doughty]

Battle royale?

 

[Joey Moss]

Lets just all agree Carter is the steal of the draft. Moving on..

 

[IslesRock4]

I think it's Zetterberg so far. I was considering him at 14.

 

[Nuckles]

I think it's Zetterberg so far. I was considering him at 14.

Ditto. He's usually taken in the top 15 in fantasy drafts.

 

[Moses Doughty]

I applaud myself for my steal
