The Finals: 2 Many 2 Gamers?

[Confidential]

Yesterday I dropped Brian Elliott for Tom Wilson as I was in danger of losing the PIM stat and the matchup last week. I was 4 PIMs ahead and yes, my opponent got 4 PIMs yesterday. Luckily, Wilson took a 2 minute minor and saved the day. That is, until Hornqvist took a high-sticking double minor last night. So in the end the Wilson pickup wasn't needed. I dropped him this morning to pick up Ryan O'Reilly.

Now here's my pickle. I have 3 players who only play 2 games this week: Perry, Ladd & Okposo. We start 6 forwards daily. If I don't start Okposo or Ladd on Saturday that means I'd only get 1 start out of them (I could start Benn, Bergeron, Landeskog, Johansen, Horqvist & Hall as my 6 on Saturday).

I could get 3 starts out of most of the 4 start forwards on the list or 4 starts out of the 4 start defensemen.

Also, I could think about streaming Vasilievsky if he plays tomorrow against Toronto, picking Elliott back up on the 1st, streaming Mrazek, Talbot or Stalock.

I have 2 more moves I can make this week. What do you guys think?

Kuznetsov
Barkov
Pirri
Gionta
Larsson
Hoffman
Prust
Ristolainen
Bogosian
Prust

Not loving the idea of Okposo for only two games.

Neither do I. I'm leaning towards dropping him for one of the Sabre options today.

My other move would be to drop Ladd after his game tomorrow night.

I could potentially get 4 starts (and some PIM) out of Brandon Prust as the Habs don't play Saturday but I think I'd rather go with Bogo or Risto over him for blocks.
