Deadline in 2 days - HELP, who are my keepers? (REP)
My leagues trade deadline is in 2 days and I want to take advantage of potential trades now instead of waiting for the off-season.
I'm in a keep 4, points only pool (league and team details in sig) and my keepers so far are Malkin, Backstrom, and Kopitar, but I'm not so sure about my 4th.
How would you rank the following guys?
Seguin
Kovalchuk
Benn
Duchene
Neal
Eberle
RNH
I can potentially acquire any of the names listed above by trading some of my non-keepers or Seguin (assuming he's not the best option of course). My goal is to keep the guy who will produce the most next year (not in 2-3 years).

Do people not normally keep goalies in your league? I'd be tempted to keep Quick over Seguin, but if most people throw back goalies, then maybe you can get a good one in the first round.
Points only, looking only to next year, I'd rather have Neal. Playing a full-year with Malkin means he should outpoint the others.

12-team Keeper pool, straight points for forwards & dmen. Goalies get: 2 points per win, 3 per shutout, 1 point per assist & 1 point per shootout loss.
League champ in 2013, 2015, 2018, 2020 and 2022.
Top 8 forwards, 5 dmen and 2 goalies count.
We keep 15 players (any position) plus two rookies.
Forwards: Panarin, Ovechkin, Kopitar, Stamkos, Tuch, Rust, Marchessault, Pavelski, Miller, Bertuzzi, Stone, Kakko, Brown, Stankoven, Kovalenko
Defence: Hedman, Fox, Matheson, Thrun, Jiricek
Goalies: Kochetkov, Talbot, Vasilevskiy, Campbell, Schmid
For next year, I'd go Neal as well. He's in a great position for success.
After that, it'd be:
Seguin
Benn
Eberle
Duchene
RNH
Yeah, goalies don't have much value in our league format. Because it's a small league, we actually tend to draft goalies in the mid-rounds lol.
I like Neal too, but after what's happened this year with injuries to Malkin, we can all see that Neal's production solely depends on him. I'm not sure if I want both him and Malkin in that case...

Points only, I would have to say Neal as well. It hurts to let RNH and Seguin go, but I feel you will be able to re-draft them next year as their respective season's totals have been below expectations.

James Neal... might as well double-up on the Pens.
Another vote for Neal as well.

neal here too, better to put your eggs in one basket imo.. help you win or help you finish at the bottom for better picks!

Thanks guys. It sounds like Neal is the obvious choice here. I'm kinda surprised that Benn wasn't even one of the votes.
What are your rankings though? It seems like only one person gave an actual list. If I can't get Neal, who is next best? Thanks!

Thanks for ranking guys. REPs coming.
I got one more option now... what about Kovalchuk? Would you rank him higher than Neal for points only next year? I can basically get Kovy for 4th round pick, but should I bother when I can just keep Seguin and save a pick?

If the choice is Kovalchuk or Seguin and a 4th rounder I'd take Seguin. The 4th will give you a quality player and Seguin and Kovalchuk should end up providing an equivalent number of points anyways.Originally Posted by Meniac

I don't know if Seguin will get the same amount of points as Kovalchuk next year (I'm guessing around 65-70 at best), but I get your point. The other owner is now offering me a 5th round pick straight up for Kovalchuk (he can't find a buyer right now because almost all of us have our 4 keepers already set). Since our trade deadline is tomorrow, do you think I should just tell him no in hopes he offers a 6th or 7th for him or is that pushing it?

I would keep Seguin. Next year is going to be his break out year offensively.
