Final Stretch strategy, who to Buy or Hold

[Firemedic]

Hi guys, Long time lurker with not many posts. I am looking for advice heading into trade deadline and playoffs. The Situation is as follows.

16 teams First season, Keep 3

G,A,P,+/-, PPP, PIMS ,HITS...W,SV%,SHO.

12 players

C - Kesler, Bergeron
LW- Ovi, tkachuk
RW- Simmonds, steen
D- Buff, Krug
G- Dubnyk, allan, greiss

BN, Ganger (just picked up)

Currently in 2nd, 3 weeks left til playoffs, only 6 in playoffs, top 2 get by to second round.

So, now that out of the way. I did some analysis vs my competitors that I will have a chance to face in playoffs (top 8, as the dust isnt settled and anything beyond 8 is to far behind to catch up to grab the last spot.

My team vs the top 8 as follows in each Cat. some I have played 2 times. so this is over 9 games.

Win-Loss-Tie records

Goals - 2 -6-1
A 3-6-0
p 2-5-2
+/-, 4-5-0
PPP 4-3-2
HIT 8-1
PIM 5-4

W 8-1
SV% 7-2
SHO 4-0-5 ( crap chute to begin with)

So looking at the data. I don't think I will win if I try to acquire more G<A<P. My competitors are just much stronger and are currently loading up on more with some crazy trade activity but seem to mostly focus on GAP. SO, what if i just concentrate on the stuff I am dominating at? Goalies is a gimme, very strong, PIMs, Hits are strong. Thats 4 cats maybe 5,but lets face it, getting SHO in the last weeks would be tough. so thats 4 of 10 cats that i am very strong in.

What I am looking at is improving +/- and PPP. I think that might be my only chance at winning. I do realize that they are unpredictable cats, and that playoffs are a crap chute to begin with.or should I focus on some thing else?

With the trade deadline approaching, Who should I target? SELL? buy? hold? buy low?

Any advice would help.
