Reply With QuoteI'd take Schwartz over Ehlers, his spot on the top line is in question with the emergence of Laine. In a 12-team Ehlers is probably a tiny bit better than replacement level but if you have to drop one I'd choose him at this point.
Who to drop to activate Schwartz?
While Jaden Schwartz isn't ready yet, I will likely have to activate him soon
Assuming no injuries or something funky to rest of my team, who would you say is most "droppable" on my team...I'm thinking between Dubinsky, Ehlers, Werenski and Gudas
Though each have their potential...Gudas is such a suspension risk at this point, but can help win a PIM/Hits category as needed...Dubinsky same thing...I like Werenski as the defense pool is pretty shallow...and he does have high shots, and top PP time

Re: Who to drop to activate Schwartz?
I would drop one of Dubinsky or Marchessault for him. You have 5/3 centres, and 6/6 wingers. I would diversify that to have one extra of each and maximize games played.
Depends if you want to go for the points or tough stats.

Personally I would probably drop Duby as tough stats are easier to stream, easier to trade for, etc.

Re: Who to drop to activate Schwartz?
Where you play 4 of your 6 defensemen, it seems silly to keep a guy like Gudas. Sure, he can earn you hits and PIM (and that's it), but will you ever really need to play him over your top four guys? I can't imagine you pulling Karlsson, Faulk, Muzzin or Stralman out of the active lineup for Gudas. Not without an injury, at least. And you still have the up and coming Werenski if that happens. Besides, he can't help you if he is suspended.

Re: Who to drop to activate Schwartz?
If you are going to use Gudas then Stralman is expendable. I'd say Marchessault is expendable as well.

Re: Who to drop to activate Schwartz?
I would drop Marchessault or Dubinsky, too many centres and you need to maximize games played for your other positions

Re: Who to drop to activate Schwartz?
Let's get real, Marchessault had a couple good games to start the year, but his production will slide, he doesn't cover the peripheral stats, and he'll be fantasy irrelevant when Huberdeau returns. Gudas is a huge asset for hits and pim in your league. It's not difficult.
