Final spot considerations:

Or trade for someone like Nylander (in talks not enjoyingthe ask ? latest offer received was Schenn/Kadri ? Nylander/Duchene) Was thinking the Nylander route for higher offensive upside.

Re: Final keeper(s) - (REP)
yeah no dice dealing out Schenn and Kadri. I keep Guentzel hope he finds himself on PP1 regularly with Letang QB'ing and reap the PPP rewards.

Re: Final keeper(s) - (REP)
I really like Schenn as your keep here. For the trade, could be a steal IF Duchene can get back to 65+pts. Schenn and Kadri you pretty much know what the ceiling is. Nylander could easily eclipse that, and if Duchene can get back to producing it could be a steal. But if he doesn't you're giving up 2 solid (if not spectacular) performers so its a gamble.

Re: Final keeper(s) - (REP)
Agree on the schenn/kadri side. I've been willing to move one, and anything else I'm not keeping with the believe Nylander is going to push 70pts this year. But not both, Kadri's a beast in this format.Originally Posted by Rodgort

Re: Final keeper(s) - (REP)
I've been humming and hawing Guentzel... I figure points wise he's = Schenn/Kesler, but do I lose the peripherals for same pt totals? Even with this massive cap ceiling, having the $$ savings is a bonus

Re: Final keeper(s) - (REP)
For me it's Schenn or Radulov. Peripherals matter a great deal in this format, and Guentzel is weak compared to the other two so I wouldn't even consider him. Let somebody else draft him too early. Kesler is probably an easier redraft.
If you have to pick before Radulov signs, I'd probably mitigate risk and go with Schenn, who is guaranteed good opportunity with good linemates. Philly won't be that bad in consecutive years. Radulov is the home-run pick though... if he lands somewhere with a good centre, he could leave the rest in the dust, on top of good peripherals.
EDIT: just re-read and saw it's a cap league. Schenn is the guy.
Re: Final keeper(s) - (REP)
his acumen for goal scoring has me sold on Guentzel and the fact that he is being fed by Sid makes me feel it can be sustained. He has also proven he is not a sole product of Crosby a la Kunitz, he can generate on his own albeit to a lesser extent. Kesler too old in my book for a keep and Schenn has shown what he'll be Guentzel could be an eight point guy and he's in the scenario for it.

Re: Final keeper(s) - (REP)

Re: Final keeper(s) - (REP)
I go Schenn here - last year you pretty much saw the worst you'll get from him, and it was still pretty darn good for these categories. Kesler is actually even better (especially with PIM) and his age doesn't scare me given the lack of competition for his "spot", yet he makes 20% more than Schenn, so I'm taking Brayden. I can see how others would recommend Kadri or Guentzel but I'm not sold on either one being able to replicate their 2016-17 performances.

Re: Final keeper(s) - (REP)

Re: Final keeper(s) - (REP)
Thanks everyone.. I've now slotted Schenn in as my 12th. A development. I just traded away Forsberg for W. Nylander 5m in savings.
One thing I am wondering about... I was asked about moving Andersen for Price... hesitant. he had no interest in Talbot (odd IMO) Should I consider this? I was debating trying to move one of Faulk/Shattenkirk with Kesler to add a high end F. This would still leave me with 3/6D keepers
Right now I am balanced with 2C, 2LW, 2RW, 4D, 2G as my keepers. Thoughts? I'm really thinking Price isn't going to be a huge upgrade on Andersen if at all next season.
