1. Maxim Afinogenov,
2. Patrice Bergeron
3. Philippe Boucher,
4. Dan Boyle
5. Rod Brind'Amour,
6. Simon Gagne
7. Martin Havlat
8. Ethan Moreau,
9. Brendan Morrison
10. Teppo Numminen
11. Michael Nylander
12. Sheldon Souray,
13. Jason Williams
14. Richard Zednik

Answer: 1. Maxim Afinogenov- Lazy, seen his best days
2. Patrice Bergeron- Depends on how his mental staus is after that injury, he has nowhere to go but up
3. Philippe Boucher- Should be steady
4. Dan Boyle- He should fit in perfectly
5. Rod Brind'Amour- He is still a decent player, but has seen his best days already
6. Simon Gagne- Not sure, think his days are numbered... he will surely avoid as many hits as possible thus eliminating part of his game
7. Martin Havlat- LOL- INJURED by week 2
8. Ethan Moreau-??
9. Brendan Morrison- Umm, no scoring on the ANA second line.. it will depend if they split the first line up to balance 2 lines or Selanne coming back
10. Teppo Numminen- Stay at home guy as of now... Solid, but not many points
11. Michael Nylander- Interesting, depends on who he plays with
12. Sheldon Souray- Solid guy, will get back to his averages
13. Jason Williams- Interesting also, KOVS, Williams, Armstrong? Lots of points if so
14. Richard Zednik- He will be back to the same and maybe achieve more

Question: Rate My Fantasy Hockey Lineup?

here is my team after the draft:

Dany Heatley
Martin St. Louis
Daiel Briere
Scott Gomez
Sergei Gonchar
Slava Kozlov
Phillippe Boucher
Paul Kariya
Jason Pominville
Nicklas Backstrom (The Caps rookie not the goalie)
Sean Avery
Shea Weber
Shane O'Brien
Peter Forsberg (took him second last round as a gamble)
J.S. Giguere
Martin Biron
Cristobal Huet

Now, why I drafted huet is beyond me... I think I'm gonna drop him in exchange for Manny Legace (who is a free agent). Other notable ree agents include:
Rod Brind'Amour
Shane Doan
Anze Kopitar
Petr Sykora
Mike Knuble
Corey Stillman
Tom Poti
Viktor Kozlov
Dainius Zubrus

does anyone think any of these players should be exchanged for anyone on my team? I'm thinking maybe taking Sykora or Kopitar for Forsberg but I don't know if I want to give up on the Forsberg gamble... and I am definitely goign to try to trade for some better goaltending...

any thought or comments will, as always, be appreciated...

Answer: Well, your team looks very good, then again, if Legace, BrindAmour, Kopitar, Sykora and Knuble are free... Gotta make some choices there.

Question: Did it help the Canadiens or Sharks to go to 7 games?

In the NFL playoffs and NCAA basketball tournament you regularly hear about how teams that faced some adversity early are better off later in the playoffs. Does the same hold true for the NHL? Will the fact that these two teams faced a tougher first round series than some of the other teams benefit them or does it matter at all?
NIPS: There is a reason I did not include the other team that got taken to the 7th game. I honestly expect this to be the end of the road.

Answer: Sharks: Winning the series and facing some adversity helped them. Calgary was probably the worst team for them to face in the first round as Calgary had the edge in the regular season also. This may help them get the early exit monkey off their back.

Canadians: I would say it definitely helped them on two levels. It gave them a kick in the butt and made them realize the regular season means nothing. Second it gave their young guys the invaluable experience of facing elimination and coming through. The will be better prepared the next time it happens. The fact that they young guys, Price and the Kostishyns had a great game 7 should also help.

Question: NHL Refs...?

I'm not the worlds most in depth Hockey fan (I watch NASCAR) but I follow Hockey when during racing's off season.
I just wanna' know two things.
What prompts a referee to wave a player out of a face off?
And also, why are some fights allowed to go, and others are broken up right away?

Answer: Waving a player outside the circle is the referee's decision. Maybe the player doesn't cooperate, maybe he's too far into the circle, or maybe he's just mouthing off to the ref. It's all up to them.

Allowed and disallowed fights all depends on the ref as well. Some refs don't mind a scrap here and there, while others break up a fight as soon as the first punch is thrown.
