Which three to keep?

[Big Ev]

I posted something similar a few weeks ago regarding weber vs byfuglien, but now that my league has added another category and backes still intrigues me, I would like some opinions of which three I should be keeping.

12 team yahoo h2h, weekly lineups. 2C, 2LW, 2RW, 4D, 2G

categories: G, A, PTS, +/-, PIM, PPP, SOG, GWG, SHP, HIT, BLK, FOW

W, SV%, GAA, SO, TOI in seconds

Trying to pick between:

Quick
Byfuglien (rw/d)
Weber
Stamkos
Backes (c/rw)

We just added toi for goalies which is ridiculous but whatever...so now some people are keeping their goalies, such as the guy who has Rask who wasn't keeping him before the new category was added.

Thoughts?

Quick
Stamkos
I want to say Buff. But his future is uncertain. Him or
Weber. Unless d aren't that valuable in your league. I rarely keep defenders in a limited keeper.

Quick
Stammer
Byfuglien - he is a valuable asset regardless of what position he plays. More valuable at defense though.

Thanks. If byfuglien had his d stripped on yahoo then I don't think I'd keep him. What are the chances of that happening?

[MillerTime89]

50/50 at this point I think. No one really knows, TBO.

Im taking Backes here...very good in all your scoring cats.

I'd be surprised if he was stripped of D status. He still plays the point on the PP and in 4 on 4 situations, including overtime. I don't see that changing. Even if he got traded, much of his value comes from being a PP specialist from the back end.
Like the others, I'd go with Quick, Stamkos and Buff.

Backes as your third and last without hesitation. Hes contributing to FOW at an above 50% rate this year, n you can slot him as a RW.

Pts in your scoring system is worse than TOI in seconds.

[Big Ev]

ended up going with Byfuglien as he has been more valuable than Backes in the league over the last couple of years according to FHG

But I do love Backes and should be able to re-draft him (and probably Weber) as he isn't a sexy name to most in this league.

yes, points is redundant and shp is terrible. Looks like they aren't adding TOI as originally planned though.

thanks for all the answers. Tough choice between the three guys.

Exactly, which position is easiest to re-draft.

Can't believe you kept Stamkos................

[meathead57]

Backes is the 3rd highest scorer in my league...big Buf is 43rd.
