Buy, Sell, and What the Hell? Samhain Edition

Buy, Sell, and What the Hell?
-Samhain Edition-

Hey, listen up you trick and treating hosers!!! I'm here to tell you that when given the option, always take treat! Nothing worse than getting tricked after a night on the town - especially the old 'I thought you were this gender but you're not' trick. That is one of the worst!

Hey and who keeps ringing my doorbell and asking for candy? Go away you freakin prostitutes, I didn't order any service. Oh, its just the neighbors kids - sorry. Didn't recognize you in the slutty nurse costume and the barely legal pumpkin costume. What is up with these X-rated costumes now a days anyway? Whatever happened to the old fashion, cut two holes in this musty old sheet and be a ghost costume? Man, the times have changed, that is for sure. Everything is a slutty something.

Anyway, it is clearly Halloween time and with things shaping up in the old hockey league, you clearly need some help.


BUY

Devin Setoguchi (RW) San Jose - He was the Sharks leading scorer in the preseason. He's got a shot like a cannon and can spit fire-lightning out of his ass - he is that good. The freshman's arrival was a bit delayed when he injured his ankle in the last preseason game of the season. His ankle is about 90% healed, but his game is all there. He scored two sick goals his first game up, although they are keeping the fire-lightning for another game, maybe even until the playoffs. I expect his success to continue as long as his health allows him to play. He looked decent on the third line and absolutely amazing on the top line. So grab this kid before his value is beyond bargaining for.

Thomas Vanek (LW) Buffalo - For a fact, most of Buffalo is a buy right now. I'm just picking on Vanek because he's just the wealthiest. It is going to take the team some time to develop chemistry for the new lines, recover from the loss of their two captains, and adjust to their new contracts. But this kid will be a superstar, but maybe not til next year. The team plays an attacking style, and once they come together will be worth it in the long run.

SELL

Rod Brind' Amour (C) Carolina - That's right, Mr. Frankenstein himself is a sell. Listen, you gotta sell guys at their peak - and he started off the season like a bat out of hell. He considered retirement this summer. Next summer, it is probably a given if he old body breaks down or Carolina wins another one. In keeper leagues, you should try to get something for him while you can.

Tomas Holmstrom (RW) Detroit - Tomas is a great player and congrats on drafting him. His stats are hard to find - but he's going to breakdown and cool off. If you can get a great return for him, then do it. Otherwise ride the wave while it lasts, but don't expect it to last all year long. A guy that makes a living screening goalies and banging the boards is just asking for an injury.


WHAT THE HELL?

Jiri Hudler (RW) Detroit - For your Halloween pleasure, if you want to see a real life goblin, you gotta watch the next Detroit game. You won't believe your eyes! They recruited a real one here folks, and his name is Jiri Hudler.



Okay, sorry for the short edition but the lllama needs to run out and get some candy. So take off you trick and treating hosers!
