    Default Help me pick my last Keeper

    Hey, league in signature, keep 20, doesn't matter about position.

    I have 19 highlighted in bold for keepers, but having trouble with the last one.

    I am leaning towards one of the following, in this order

    1. Silverberg
    2. Ellis
    3. Lecavalier
    4. Grigorenko
    5. Ryan Murphy

    Any thoughts?

    First off, very nice looking team!

    Secondly, I'd go with your gut and do Silfverberg. He has a lot more to offer than what he showed last year. Wouldn't be surprised to see him on Kesler's wing and have him challenge for 50pts or so.

    I like Ryan Murphy in a keeper. This kid will be the #1 dman for Columbus in a few years. Then again, you might be able to redraft him.

    Silfverberg would be fourth on that list for me, with only Grigorenko behind him. If you're looking to win the league this year then there is a strong case for Lecavalier, who is probably going to get you more points (even in a crap year) than any of those other guys. However, I don't think your team is good enough in a 10 team league (at this point, but watch out down the road!) to win the whole thing, so I'd take an eye for the future with either Ellis or Murphy. I'm not quite as high on Murphy (he's the Carolina d-men people, not Ryan Murray!), so would probably go with Ellis.

    I'm not a Silvferberg fan at all.

    Ryan Murphy is in Carolina. You are thinking of Ryan Murray in Columbus.

    Silfverberg is your guy here. He's my last keeper if I am you.

    Toss up between Silfverberg and Murphy. I own Silfverberg, and hope he lands on one of Anaheim's top two lines. If he doesn't, he won't come close to 50 points as others have predicted. Murphy has yet to show the offensive prowess we were promised a few years ago, but dmen tend to take longer to develop so I think he makes the adjustments required in the next couple of years, but you'll have to wait.

    Silfverberg, you hope he lands top 6.

    Murphy, you have to wait.

    I would go with Silfverberg or Grigs. Your team is very young so I would be thinking a couple years into the future. I know a lot have given up on Grigs but I think he's still got the potential to be a great player.

    Silfverberg would be my choice as well. He's had some injury trouble though, that's the only thing I would keep an eye on

    Silver surfer without a doubt. Best amongst your list.

    Silfverberg for me - he should match or possibly even surpass Lecavalier this year, and will be better than he is going forward long-term.

    What has Silfverberg shown that people are so sure he's going to be this big point producer? I mean, he's a good player, but these guys that come over from the SEL could go all sorts of direction with their game.

    Doulos, I really like Silfverberg, he's proving to be a volume shooter and will probably end up being used on the PP, and will likely put up solid even strength points as well with Kesler centering him.
