My fantasy league team sucks. I got stuck with Toskla as my goalie and he has had a pathetic start to the season. I was finally able to add a decent goalie, Roberto Luongo of Vancouver four whole days before he got injured. They currently estimate that he will now be out for 5 weeks.

I picked up Khabibhulin in the hopes that the Blackhawks might want to offload his large salary to NJ when Brodeur went down for the season but they didn’t. Fortunately, the Bhulin wall has been playing well…until he got injured last week. I picked up Luongo’s replacement Curtis Stanford so I would avoid forfeiting games due to not starting enough goalies and now I have four goalies on my roster. Not one of them is a good starting goaltender.

To make matters worse, Two of my albatrosses of the season are saddled with the “no-drop” clause and since Ollie Jokinen is now injured I won’t be able to unload him or his pathetically puny production. And while we are on the subject, does anyone have a player from St. Louis with a positive +/-? I have Brad Boyes on wing and while I appreciate the fact that his scoring has picked up a bit, his -13 on the +/- scale is doing me no favors.
