    Default Best ROTO option??

    I have a little cap to play with and was thinking of dropping Craig Smith (2mil until 2016) for a stronger roto type guy. Smith's pts and SOG are fine but PIM, BS and Hits are hurting. Here are my affordable options:

    Desharnais 3.5 for the next 3 yrs
    Bozak 4.2 for the next 4 yrs
    Joel Ward 3.0 for next yr
    Henrique 4.0 for the next 5 yrs
    Brassard 3.2 RFA
    Hornvqvist 4.25 for the next 4 yrs

    So I guess the first question is, should I move Smith at all for one of these guys? I think his offensive numbers could be very nice in the future but I don't think he will contribute heavily in the other scoring cats. Yes/No??

    Of the guys listed above, who do you think is the best long term ROTO option?

    Hornqvist for me, easiily out of this group.
    His numbers aren't sexy... but he's a lock every year for 40-50pts and 230-270 SOG.

    The SOG are huge. Hornqvist gets over 3 SOG/game.
    Especially compared with light shooting options like Bozak/Ward/Desharnais (all who put up 1.5 SOG/game or less).

    Hornqvist is also a guy that I think could score 60pts if he got to play with an elite center.
    Out of a forward slot, you want SOG built-in with your scoring.
    You do NOT need PIM/BS/Hits built-in with your forwards.

    In any salary cap league with these cats, you should get these stats through your D-group.
    I stock my Dynasty Salary team with guys like Clayton Stoner, Deryk Engelland, Adam McQuaid, Jay Harrison, and Mark Stuart. (and the gold gem like Radko Gudas also pops up occassionally)
    This year, I've just plugged in guys like Andre Benoit, Nick Holden... and one of my new faves: Kevan Miller.

    This is good advice. You want to stock your D with Mark Stuarts. They're gold in these formats.

    Funny, I just added Stuart and have been eyeing Miller! In fact, I think I grab Miller as well as Horny immediately! I guess maybe I'm on the right track. Thanks guys.

    I would jump on Horny too, he has potential for 35-40 g's if he ever gets an elite centre, just in his prime.

    The poster above who gave you the advice deserves a brew. Couldn't have said it any better myself.
