    Default Finals: Time to Switch Forwards?

    Onto the championship round, the next two weeks count.
    In the semis, the last game decided things. Thus, many teams dropped some good players for that final game.
    Now that we're in the finals, should I drop any of my players for the players below?
    I'm always stuck in the debate of, do you play the guys that brought you to the finals or should you be ruthless and only go by recent numbers?
    (G, A, +/-, PIM, PPP, ATOI, SOG)

    I have:
    - Kessel (6 games, 3 at home; he's been pretty average, with only a monster at SOG)
    - Perron (6/2; 1 point in last 7 games, -6)
    - Stepan (7/3; points in 3 out of last 10, seems lost without MSL)
    - T. Johnson (7/3; 2 points in last 6, out today with an UBI)

    These guys are available:
    - Atkinson (7/5; 9 points in last 7 but only 16:00 ATOI)
    - Huberdeau (6/5; 8 in 8, playing with Jagr)
    - Barkov (6/5; 7 in last 8)
    - Tanguay (7/4; 6 in 6)
    - B. Pouliot (7/3; 8 in 7)
    - Stafford (6/3; 9 in last 7)

    (I also have the ability to drop Brodie for Phaneuf. Very similar numbers, but P. holds the edge in PIM.)

    Thanks

    F: Perry, Getzlaf, Voracek, Taransenko, Palat, Johnson, Landeskog, Ladd, Stone, Spezza, Perron
    D: Shattenkirk, Hedman, OEL, Brodie, Vatanen

    Perron hasn't done enough to warrant keeping on your roster so I might drop him for Huberdeau or Barkov. In fact, I think both of those are good pick ups so I might even drop Johnson if he is going to miss time and pick up the other Florida forward.

    Agree with this, you need production now so there isn't time to wait for players to bust their slumps.
