    Default Which 5 to keep

    Just finished up my league and starting to think about next year. We keep any 5 players and the scoring is in my signature. Stamkos and Lundqvist is a given for sure, but I'm not really sure about the rest. At the beginning of the year, I would have said Byfuglien, Nash and Couture. However with Byfuglien potentially losing D-eligibility, Nash struggling, and Couture not really breaking out as hoped, thinking about whether or not OEL, McDonagh or even Simmonds, Backes or another goalie like Lehtonen.

    Would love to hear what you guys think!

    I'd keep Buff too, but I believe he's destined for only Forward eligibility soon. He'd actually be a player could try and get a good trade for.

    C - Stamkos, Couture (C,LW), Koivu
    LW - Nash (LW,RW), Marchand
    RW - Backes (C,RW), Simmonds
    D - Byfuglien, OEL, Burns, Gudas
    G - Lundqvist, Lehtonen

    Bn - J. Jokinen (C,LW), Skinner (C,LW,RW), McDonagh (D), Thomas (G), Josi (D)

    Couture with LW status makes him an easier keep for me. I would also keep Buff and OEL over Skinner.

    Keep 20/25 at seasons end, Cut 5 to FA for redrafting

    It's hard to say without knowing how these guys fair under your points system. It would be helpful to post their final numbers.

    And this is why I wanted to hear different opinions on this. I'm sort of torn about Nash since I did draft him in the fourth round after lundqvist, perry (who I traded with benn for stamkos) and lehtonen. At the time I thought I was set with 6 keepers (lunqvist, perry, benn, couture, nash, byfuglien) which is why I made a 2 for 1 keeper trade in Perry and Benn for Stamkos. But now I start to doubt myself with the way Benn has progressed.

    In terms of numbers from highest to lowest, Lehtonen (336.0), Lundqvist (331.2), Simmonds (213.8), Backes (209.5), Byfuglien (188.2), Marchand (179.8), Skinner (177.8), Couture (177.1), Nash (172.6), Burns (166.0), OEL (155.8), Stamkos (128.3).

    In terms of the trade I'm starting to regret, Perry (265.5) and Benn (242.3).
