Who to expose in Expansion?

[lucafen4]

where you lose one player, I protect my two highest ceiling assets - Barzal & Gusev. losing a depth dman isn't going to hurt you, neither is Stastny. Here's hoping he doesn't take Bracco, who could be the biggest prospect sleeper of the bunch

I'll rep some of these when I'm reloaded. Good fodder for consideration in here. And I was leaning toward exposing Martinez and Goli and being okay losing one of them.

The only issue with Gusev is the wait. Could be years. And since he's over 25, I can't farm him (sorry for added detail). Would hate to lose him, but I'm torn too. If he signs KHL extension and waits until 27 for UFA status, that's a long commitment.

Bracco feels like boom/bust to me, but he Mem Cup added a bit of shine...

if you can't farm Gusev, then I cut bait... and keep Martinez.. I won't waste a roster slot on a player that isn't coming over. farm - fine.

Bracco - unless this guy is a Leafs fan, you won't lose him. He took his biggest strides this year away from the puck. That was his biggest knock. Lazy without it. That changed and he made WJC team as a result. He's got sick skills. You want boom-bust prospects. When you get the boom. it's awesome. the safe ones, never excite.

BARZAL and Martinez for sure here
