Out of the following players, which three would be the best choice to hold onto for the rest of the season?
Lee Stempniak, Michal Ouellet, Viktor Kozlov, Brandon Bochenski, Steve Bernier
Who is the odd man out here?
Does Ouellet's role in Pittsburgh get reduced with the arrival of Roberts?
Will Kozlov continue to produce among the top six in NY with Smyth in town?
Is Bochenski the real deal, or just getting lucky?
Stempniak obviously has the skills, but should the lack of support he have be a concern?
What about Bernier, will he stick and be effective with SJ again?

Does Ouellet's role in Pittsburgh get reduced with the arrival of Roberts?
I think not. It's Ryan Malone or Jordan Staal who should worry.

Maybe, but at his career levels, not necessarily like his recent streak.
I don't think he'll see much time with Smyth unless they break up Smyth and Blake (which they should).

The $64,000 question. I think he'll keep it up -- Bergeron and Sturm suit him.

Nope. He's a future cornerstone on a young team with some skill.

Yep, but he won't pop your eyes out like last year.
My 2 cents (x 5 = 10 cents).

I've decided to go with Kozlov, Stempniak and Ouellet, although of the three its Ouellet I'm most concerned with...still may pickup either Arnason, Zherdev, Bernier or Bochenski for him...

i'd only consider Bochenski for Ouellet and that's only if i were concerned about Ouellet's playing time

Agreed. I'd pay attention to Bernier too.
Michel Therrien can't keep his lines together for more than a week, it seems, even when they're healthy, so don't overreact to any single game's ice time or line change for Ouellet... Penguins can be tougher to own for this reason. I know, I've got Malone and Staal in the TMRX, so maybe those are the guys that I'm worried about.
