Top 5 Free Agent Finds : Fantasy Edition

With the signings done for the year, unless an emergency.It is time to do our top 5 Fantasy Free Agent Finds. This is for the guys that were picked up off free agency, that have done good or great. This list does not include any rookies.


1. Patrick Marleau (Grumpy's)- Yes he was a known player. But he also was given up on by the rest of the league. After a terrible 2007-2008 season. But he is now in the top 10 in Points and top 5 in Goals. He should of been picked in our waiver draft. But instead people went with a ton of rookies!

2. David Krejci (Stingers)- The stingers signed this relatively unknown forward at that time. He wound up developing into a dynamic player overall. Krejci has really broken out last year, similar to how Mike Richards did last year. To bad the Stingers didn't hang on to him. He packaged him in a deal as a Throw-In!


3. Mike Smith (LumberJacks)- With a rush to get goalies on the first day of signings. Matthiue Garon and Dan Ellis went before Smith. All the owners that passed up Smith for other bums must feel really bad right now. Only thing Smith does not get Wins cause the team he is on. But his GAA and SV% are extremely phenomenal for the team he is on!

4. Patrick Elias (Asssassins)- Signed to be a replacement for injury. Elias wind up rebounding his career and became one of the better players on the Assassins roster. Up until the Parise line split. Elias is now 7th in the NHL in points and has 23 goals. A fine find if you ask me.

5. Fedor Tyutin (ItsAllOver)- Since going to Colombus he has really turned into a good d man. He already has 8 goals and 26 points in 57 games and should get to the 40 mark. He was a great find as it hard to get D man who get Top Power Play time and can do something with it.
