...are probably your best bets in order. Maybe Chara, but he's steadily declining. Your G here are horrible, but all the more reason to keep two of them and hope to upgrade in trades
I'm in a 20-team keep-10 league with a points-only scoring system that basically sets player values about the same as they are in standard rotisserie leagues that count shots.
My top five keepers are locks, but beyond that I am having a hard time gauging what the next tier of guys will be worth next season. The following represents the players on my roster that I am considering as possible keepers, and the players that are being shopped around that I believe would be affordable. Who would be your top 6 or 7 players (in terms of what you expect them to do over the next two seasons):
Mike Ribiero
Ryan Johansen
Ales Hemsky
Olli Jokinen
Frans Nielson
Tobias Enstrom (at least two of my last five keepers must be D)
Tyson Barrie
Seth Jones
Eric Gelinas
Victor Fasth (I need to keep at least one G)
Zdeno Chara
James Reimer
Cam Ward
Alexander Semin
M-E Vlasic
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Ryan Johansen
Mike Ribiero
Cam Ward
Alexander Semin
These are your top 5 IMO
Barrie and Fasth are the fringe players but I would not keep either over the first five. If you can trade Semin and Ward for an upgrade in goal, then you can keep Barrie as your fifth player. I would keep Fasth only if you dealt Ward and did not get a G in return (not the best strategy in my books though).

Both Ward and Semin are players that I would have to trade for, but are on the market. Fasth is the only goalie on my current roster that may be keepable. Someone is trying to sell me Semin, but at the moment he wants Johansen for him, which seems like an overpayment on my part. I haven't determined the price on Ward yet.
I wouldn't acquire Ward then, and no way I pay Johansen for Semin. Tell him if he wants Johansen, he would have to add a hell of a lot more than Semin
