Really hoping that MDZ is working his ass off this offseason to make the team.

Does anyone else go crazy when they see “Rangers” on the ESPN scroll and see that it is about the Texas Rangers? My entire life I have snapped my head up when I saw “Rangers” out of the corner of my eye and have always mumbled a terrible obscenity when I realized it was about the baseball team.
My fantasy hockey question of the day for you guys:
Ryan Kesler
or
Corey Perry
both guys are coming off of career years and likely won’t repeat what they did last year. The gut reaction is to go with Perry because of the depth at center in fantasy hockey but you have to ask yourself who will have a more disappointing season this year?

Perry’s the much safer bet. He’s still on the same line, and has posted 40+ assists for 3 years running. If he had shot just career average last year instead of the 17% he did, he still posts 33 goals/81 points. Combined with his RW position and the 100+ PIMs he’s nearly a lock for, he’s money in the bank.

You do realize
That in the BSB fantasy draft you’re basically going to get all your picks taken off the board before you can choose them now.

Ryan x 2
Bourque’s savvy comment is yet another in the litany of stamps of approval on why Cally should be named Captain.
I mean, RC’s how old and he already has prospects modeling their games after him? What does that tell ya?
So help me….. :(
It would be smart for any player to model their game after Cally.
He is a coaches wet dream.
