    Default Pick a player to drop

    Need to drop a player from my keeper league because a 2 for 1 trade put me over the player limit, Im having trouble deciding who to drop out of these players:

    Kuznetsov
    Dumba
    Niederreiter
    Nyquist
    Bjugstad
    Coyle
    Brunner
    Vanek
    Wiercioch


    im leaning towards vanek cause its a salary cap league and I cant afford him moving forward, and hes having injury problems this year and not been that great for me.

    Nyquist for me. I just don't see him becoming a top 6 forward in Detroit year after year when you consider Brunner and Jurco entering the fold

    I know you have tried but maybe try and make a deal where you give up 2 assets and upgrade.

    Beyond that, what are your scoring stats? If hits are not included, I would prob drop Dumba. D tends to be undervalued so you could trade a forward for D later. But if you have no chance of winning this year and can't keep Vanek then there is no point in holding him this year.

    Sorry it's not a straight answer but lots of variables.

    Dumba.
    IMO, unless a defensive prospect is a world-class young talent (i.e. Karlsson), it will be years & years before he is fantasy relevant. I rarely draft defensemen in my pools that have a farm/prospects.

    Dumba is my choice as well, he is just tooo far away from being relevant right now.

    I'd drop Kuznetsov. Sure his upside is high but he's not coming to the NHL.
