Soderberg to me.
Boston breeds average stats and limits top end. That will work in Soderbergs favour here. I could see a 40-50 point full season from him.
12-team keep 12+16 farm. G,A,P,PPP,PIM,+-,SOG,hits are the scoring cats.
I need to cut four of the following from my farm: Loktionov, Craig Smith, Soderberg, Andrew Shaw, Rickard Rakell. Emphasis on upside for this year I guess, since I am taking a final ill-advised run before a retool, and could use a decent farm callup at some point. Who do I keep?

I'd keep Andrew Shaw.
LOL... I have to say i see "C.Smith" taking a step this season. Last year was his 2nd year jinx and well he really stepped it up in the World Championships finishing second on the team in scoring (14pts in 10 games) and 3rd in the whole tournament.
Being called out by Torts has put a little hop in his step and you will feel the return next season and on.
Look at Colin Wilson, last year was his forth and he made the jump. It was only an injury that stopped him from a full (half season) season break out...
just my 2 cents
