I'm thinking he should dump Pitkanen for Higgins or Parise bc of dual eligibility.

C/LW CHiggins

I would say go for Forsberg but that's a pretty sick lineup anyway so I would consider dumping Bryz for Forsberg. Bryz is not gonna do much (not saying he's not talented) since JSG has clearly taken over the #1 at Anaheim. If that doesn't work, get Parise instead. As far as Pitkanen goes, I would shoot for trading first. Probably doing a package deal is the only way to get rid of him but I would try to shoot for a decent D-man in return. IF, and only IF, no one takes any decent deals and you've exhaused all attempts to trade him away, I would consider dumping Pitkanen then. Are there any other goalie options to have? Once Vokoun comes back, Mason's value goes down so you need to look for other options if you're behind in goalie game totals.

I've dumped him.... his scoring isn't there... and the -20 is too much.

if you're more worried about +/- then i like Higgins more than Parise.  i'd move off of Pitkanen too though.

Thanks everyone. He's a bit weak in GAA bc he had Lehtonen when he did bad.

As far as FA goalies go, it's not that good.

Nittymaki (my bro had him last year so doubt he'd want him again)

Legace
PLeclaire
