Carlson, Parayko or Guentzel as Final Two Keepers?
Although I have some time to sort this out, I'm struggling with deciding between the three.
I went through a rebuild last year and think I've done alright by securing a young, talented team. So, I guess that's why I consider Carlson on the bubble.
The way I view these three players:
1. Carlson: I think he can rebound from last season and put up decent numbers again. Sounded like health was a bit of an issue with him last season, so hopefully it doesn't carry on as an issue.
2. Parayko: He's a young, stud dman trending in the right direction. Right shot, cannon that should be on a solid second PP unit at minimum. It's certainly a possibility he gets some top PP minutes, and his overall TOI should increase.
3. Guentzel: Again, a very good, young player that plays the left side, which is sort of a fantasy hockey commodity. His record setting playoff turned some heads and I think his value is currently pretty high.
All three players are pretty good. What do you guys think?

I would go Parayko and Guentzel.
Re: Carlson, Parayko or Guentzel as Final Two Keepers?
I think Guentzel is 100% for sure and then I'd take Parayko over Carlson, especially on a rebuild.
Re: Carlson, Parayko or Guentzel as Final Two Keepers?
Guentzel and Carlson for me. I'm expecting a huge bounce back from Carlson.
Re: Carlson, Parayko or Guentzel as Final Two Keepers?
Same for me. I consider Carlson a lock and it was between Parayko and Guentzel for me. With your settings, Parayko's numbers don't wow me, so I prefer Guentzel's upside and as you stated, his value is high at the moment thanks to his playoff run.Originally Posted by FinnishFlash

Re: Carlson, Parayko or Guentzel as Final Two Keepers?
That's what I keep looking at as well, is Parayko's numbers, but I can't help but think these numbers are going to get a boost. Shattenkirk is gone. Parayko is number 2 behind AP now, but I really wonder if he can do more, all-around than AP as the season goes on, and beyond. Although, our pool is set up a bit different where it is keep 8 this year, but next year is keep 6. So, chances are...Parayko wouldn't be kept next season anyhow. You're likely correct in Carlson and Guentzel being the best two.
Anyone have any strong cases for Parayko? Or, knocks on Carlson? It sounds pretty unanimous that Guentzel is a keeper for me here.

Carlson/Guentzel. AP is the guy in St. Louis IMO.
