    Default Keep 6 + 1 Goalie... Essentially JVR or Big Byfuglien I think

    Good day

    Team in Sig, pretty much locked up with Crosby, Getz, Perry, Hall, Benn and Miller for the goalie but the 6 keeper I'm hesitant. Essentially JVR or Big Byfuglien I think for the 6th keeper but nervous about Buff and being strictly forward this season... Might as well go for the almost certain approx. 25-25-50 season from JVR right? or maybe go even crazier and keep Hedman who's finally rounding into form?

    Any advice is appreciated and rep will be added! I got a hell of a season ahead as I made a huge trade last year for hall and 2, 1st rounds other picks for my O.V. Going to draft at least 2 goalies in that first round as that's been my Achilles heel for that last several years, one good goalie and a mediocre one and sometimes another mediocre one in the 2nd round as well.

    Side bar question: Any strategy when having 3 first rounds?

    Thanks

    If this is a yahoo league then Buff has D eligiblity, and I would keep him. Honestly even as a forward Buff has a good chance to put up the same numbers as JVR

    As for strategy, I would be looking at a top tier goalie if I were you, I'd be wary to trust Miller with the #1 slot

    why not see if you can pair JVR or Byf with Miller for a goalie upgrade

    every provider i've seen has buff at D or dual, obviously no guarantee he stays that way but he's worth a hell of a lot more if he does

    Not sure I can work a trade but good idea... Problem with trade is I try to trade 3 now and there dropping there keepers for these guys which is doubtful. And guys in this league don't get active until after the draft. More thinking of risking big buff and hopefully the D spot on Yahoo sticks all season.
    Definitely wary of Miller thats why I'm debating spending all 3 of my 1st rounds this year on goalies and maybe shipping one out for a first round next year. Next pick after that isn't until the 3rd round though.
    Maybe I should give up on Miller and keep both JVR and Buff but Millers contract I think he plays the majority of games this season hopefully with better results the last. Maybe he's less valuable than Buff and JVR and I can pick him back up plus two other goalies in the first??? but thats a very risky strat.

    More thoughts???

    I think Hedman could be a steady 50 point dman, and he compliments the 5 excellent forwards that you have. I was tempted to take Gibson, but in the end Miller is the right way to go. Draft well, and you have the foundation to do very well.

    Counting PIM might be enough to make Byfuglien your best choice.

    If Byf has a good shot at being D eligible you have to go with him. If it's uncertain, would agree that Hedman is the play here. Cheers.
