The King is back - Who to drop?

[Forest]

Until now, I've kept the King on IR so I could get more starts out my forwards last week and what a good decision that was.

Now it's time for some decision making. I have a good enough chance to get to the finals next week so I try to put a lil thought in this to squeeze the most out of my squad.

Five guys on the bubble, only one gets the boot... Feel free to chip in with a though or two.

League and cats in signature. None of these guys will be kept.

Marko Dano: The most unproven of all but does it matter with only two weeks left? If I drop him I'm not taking a hit this week as I can plays Versteeg in his spot. In the final week though CB schedule kicks in for me and I get 3 presences out of this guy. Worth the gamble?

Loui Eriksson: do I need an explanation? Been keeping this dead weight for two years in a row now.

Versteeg: He disapeared with Kane going dow but CHI has a great schedule for me this week. Next week, I'd get two starts out of the guy.

Eddie Lack: My easy way out. I can manage without him as NYR have 4 games next week. Vancouver's got a hard ass schedule this week but the end the season with a beauty: Arizona and Edmonton. Do I keep him to play him those two nights? Goalies weight an awful lot in my league and these are great gambles.

Talbot: Do they continue to play him or do they make a push to round the king about? Dropping him means I'm not 100% to get all the NYR games.

I would drop Dano. That's the safe play

For me this comes down to one of Dano or Versteeg. For some reason my gut is saying Versteeg is the guy to drop. Versteeg is getting more icetime, and more PP time but yet it seems Dano is out performing him lately.

Go the safe route and drop Dano.

Dano for me too.

Ok ok, I get the safe play and everything but:
Dropping the kid means I loose 3 forward starts next week as opposed to still have a chance at 9 goalie games for which I only need 4 to qualify my stats. If Talbot gets 1 (1 b2b next week) or maybe two if they rest Lundy saturday I still get a chance at 7 starts.
Nobody thinks that'd be carrying dead weight?
