Good call. Might have to drop Teravainen in my pool for Marchand, but gonna give it a couple games to see how he looks and no setbacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seattle is in the top half of the league in terms of CF%, scoring chances, xGF so I would expect Bjorkstrand to benefit from that and give you better production overall, despite the slow start compared to Hayes.

Yeah I’m leaning to that as well. I just heard they are saying Marchand won’t play back to back games so that kind of stinks. I sure hope they only mean two days in a row and not every other game.

I thought that only applied to this Friday's game, which makes sense as he's coming back from a big injury and they probably want to evaluate the recovery. I didn't think it applied to back-to-back games going forward. If that's the case, it definitely affects the fantasy decision. Probably best to hold off for a week and see how they utilize him. For all we know they may even limit his TOI to like 10 mins initially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote The Boston Bruins are about to get a huge boost. Bruins head coach Jim Montgomery has announced that star winger Brad Marchand will make his season debut in Thursday's game against the Detroit Red Wings. While Marchand is slated to return to the ice, the Bruins forward won't play in back-to-back situations for now. Boston faces the Columbus Blue Jackets on the road on Friday following Thursday's contest. https://www.cbssports.com/nhl/news/brad-marchand-injury-update-bruins-star-will-make-season-debut-thursday-vs-red-wings/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he gets into the groove with Pasta and Bergeron (both of whom are hot currently), then his output will easily outweigh those 2 missed games.

I doubt he does 10m TOI because he’s obviously going to play in the top 6. Possibly they limit his pk since it’s the hardest minutes between EV/PP/PK hayes dropped lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re right. My fantasy league has been weird in recent few years. It started to go away from the obvious picks and some guys are trying to reinvent the wheel and get highly touted prospects a bit too early in the draft so some guys remained available way too long. Add in that it’s a 10 team league which leaves plenty of good players as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
