Different Keeper Rules - Hossa, Palat, or Galchenyuk
10 Team H2H league with team and categories in signature. We keep two players outright plus up to three additional players 3 rounds earlier than they were drafted this year. For example, I drafted Rask in the 8th round two years ago, so I was able to keep him in the 5th round last year and 2nd round this year. He can be one of my outright keepers next year.
Hossa was just dropped, I have more depth at LW than RW and am wondering whether it's worth dropping either Galchenyuk or Palat for him. Both may be slightly less valuable than Hossa this year but carry keeper potential. On the other hand, my team is good enough to contend this year and I might be able to pretty easily fill my round-3 keepers from other players on my team. If I do drop one - which one?
If it is helpful for reference, other top FAs are:
- Johnson - TB RW
- Foligno
- Ladd
