I was fairly happy drafting Jere Lehtinen kinda late in my yahoo draft and he has rewarded me with next to nothing. Should I drop Jere and pick up Scott Walker who has been on fire lately with the defending cup champs? Currently my wingers are Lehtinen, Naslund, Zetterberg, Hossa, Bertuzzi(IR), Selanne, Vyborny, and Bernier.

My right testicle is bigger than my left. My friends call me Biggie Smalls.

my answer does depend on how your scoring system is.  Lehtinen will probably get more goals on the season than Walker but if you count PIMs too then Walker is the guy to get.  Lehtinen is very defensively minded and the +/- is going to be good on him too though.

for me, the choice is Walker.

PIMs and +/- are irrelavent in this league. We score points in goals, assists, PP points, SH points, game winning goals.

Walker for sure - however buyer beware of Walker's penchant for hurting himself at the most prevalent times

since PIMs are irrelevant then not so long ago my choice would've easily been the 30 goals that Lehtinen would give.  but with Walker hanging out with Staal for most of the game, i like his prospects better than Jere's right now.  i still go with Walker.
