MessageI think that reasoning sux and would cause for too much work and research by our beloved commish. If the guy is listed on the nhl.com website as a D-man, then apparently the nhl is convinced that he is defense, and if its good enough for the nhl it should be good enough for the fhl, and i'd like to see you get the pickuphockey site to decypher the two different types of points!

MessageThis is a tough one - I'd say that if a GM wants to take a chance drafting a d man who takes turns at forward that we should count his points as follows - if the GM brings him up to his club as a d then he can only receive points as a d. If he ends up playing forward (i.e. on the roster as a forward - not to be confused with forwards who sometimes play point on a power play or in overtime when it's 4 on 4) and started as a forward for any games during the month he is called up as a FHL d man his points in the games as a forward would not count towards that respective GM's point total. His points as a d would count. Therefore it becomes a risk to the GM taking that chance and not befitting unfairly.

MessageIn light of the Commish's decision to delay arbitration on the Kessel issue until next summer. The pressure was on the Phillies to compensate Dan to drop the Kessel issue. Further battling the cards in a deck stacked against the Phillies from the expansion get go, we are disgruntled but proud to announce Kessel is here to stay.

We have paid for him twice now and the Duke's have benefitted completely from the Niedermeyer issue combined with the indecision from Pool Leadership commitee.

To the Dukes:
Chris' Midseason Pick

To the Phillies:
Nothing! the Kessel future considerations are dropped.

MessageGoon brought up the issue with Phaneuf playing forward as a D man earlier in the season. It is a much more pressing issue with the addition of Byfuglien. He was promoted to the second line wing a couple of weeks ago and Chicago has now moved a few defencemen around and brought up Barker because they really like Byfuglien as a forward. He is now on the first line and they are skating him with Toews and Kane in practice. Both Tallon and Savard have said they like him there.

So with that info, A: Is he being drafted as a F or a D. and B: If he's a Dman are we going to look at parameters for defining positions.
