Pick up Goligoski/Polak for final stretch?

[ericdaoust]

One-year Yahoo roto league G/A/PIM/SOG/PPP/SHP/HIT/BLK/FOW with unlimited transactions but a cap on GP. I am well on course to max out GP.

I'm in 1st by a fairly wide margin. I'm first in 9/12 categories but I'm way more vulnerable in those than in the three where I am not leading. So basically I'm still looking for improvements even though my roster has worked out very well so far. I lost Giordano and Lundqvist too which doesn't help.

Currently my last two D spots are held by Simon Despres and Mark Stuart. Both are solid for this league but I'm wondering if I can do better. Looking for value more than individual categories as my main priority is to extend my leads.

I processed FHG for games since January 1st and obtained the following results (with Goligoski/Polak being top free agents):

Rank	Player			FHG Value	GP	G	A	PIM	SOG	PPP	SHP	HITS	BKS	FOW
247	Mark Stuart	WPG	D	37	21	0	3	18	13	0	1	48	34	0
220	Simon Despres	ANA	D	43	23	1	7	12	30	0	0	67	31	0
						1	10	30	43	0	1	115	65	0
129	Alex Goligoski	DAL	D	67	27	1	8	12	44	1	1	27	53	0
118	Roman Polak	TOR	D	70	25	1	2	22	27	0	0	101	53	0
						2	10	34	71	1	1	128	106	0

Note that Gudbranson is also in the mix as a free agent...

Should I make both swaps? Drop one? Stand pat? Opinions welcome...

After looking at the FHG results I would make the swap.
Goligoski for Stuart is a no-brainer, but Polak for Despres is more intriguing since we don't know how ANA will use him.
My first guest is he will get less offensive opportunity so less A and less SOG then making Polak more attractive.
