Abdelkader is the drop for me. No confidence he starts in the wings top 6 or if he does that he'll stay there for long.
Second drop would be johannson.
Rank these forwards as i'm looking to drop one
League starts 3C 3LW 3RW 4D 2Util , 4 bench and 2Goalies
Categories: Goals, Assists, PPP, SOG, PIMS +/- and Wins, SV%, GAA, shutouts
Michalek (starting RW)
Tlusty (bench)
Marcus Johansson (bench)
Jonathan Drouin (bench)
Justin Abdelkader (bench)
How likely is my bench gonna be staying on the top line to start the season and have success?

I'd also drop Abdelkader.
Consensus - drop Abdelkader.
If you can wait a bit before submissions, just make sure that Drouin hasn't been sent back down. While unlikely, it is possible.
So you don't see Abdelkader sticking around. Didn't he finish the year last season with Dats and Zetterberg?
Yes, he did spend a lot of time skating with Zetterberg and Datsyuk, but there is strong competition for the L1 RW spot going into this season (Tartar, Nyqvist, and Alfy are all better L1 material). The other wingers you listed are all virtual locks to play on top lines with elite forwards. Not worth rolling the dice on Abdelkader when you have better options.
Agreed - Abdelkader is the easy drop
